You have stuff to do, but you struggle to complete it. Just starting may difficult for you, too. That’s why we have Finish Line Friends as accountability or body doubling mechanisms. No more than 6 FLF’s are allowed to attend each session. There are just enough folks present to help hold you accountable for completing your goals. No more getting lost in a sea of heads and faces packed in a meeting, where you become super anonymous and where your efforts don’t really matter too much.
What you do matters, here.
FLF is helpful for folks who:
Know what and how to study, but just need space to focus- Struggle in day-to-day life with task completion
- Have tried seminars, therapy, etcetera, but who need space to do the assignments given to them at the seminars, therapy, etcetera
- Are tired of hiding behind procrastination jokes
- Want to challenge themselves to finish something, bit by bit
- Are okay being vulnerable enough to admit they need support finishing (or starting) personal, everyday tasks, like drinking water, walking, or making a bed or professional tasks like coding web pages, grading papers, or harvesting vegetables
You do not need to be a student to be a Finish Line Friend.
You only need to be willing to be actively engaged in
completing your goals.

How Does It Work?
You show up and account for what you want to accomplish during the hour. Your camera has to remain on during the session. If it’s a chat-only session, you’ll communicate via the chat box. Otherwise, you’ll verbally share your goals, work, then share your accomplishments during the debriefing at session’s end.
There are only six seats per session. Because space is limited, to give other FLF’s a chance to show up and get some work done, you may register on a session-by-session basis only.
Impromptu sessions may last anywhere from a ½ hour to 3 hours. Either way, extra flexibility is baked into your membership.
Frequently Asked Questions
If you’re here, chances are you’re procrastination prone or you struggle with time blindness. Because the number session seats is limited, other FLF’s may miss out on the chance to show up and knock out some work if you book a bunch of spaces that you forget or dismiss.
Let’s ensure everyone gets a chance to accomplish their goals.
You can book an hour ahead.
No, but if you think sharing your screen will help you stay on track, you might be given the opportunity to do so.
Nu uh. Sorry. There are no speakers. At this point, most of us have heard enough motivational speeches and tips to last a lifetime.
We just need to be able to get to work as quickly as possible and with as few distractions as possible.
You may need to book private sessions or special group sessions for folks experiencing this same issue. During these sessions, your host performs more frequent check ins.
$10 per half hour
Impromptu sessions occur outside of the times that appear on the calendar. Feel free to pop in and work. You may receive email notifications before impromptu sessions begin. During those times, up to 15 FLF’s may join and work, but there may not be an opportunity to share your goals and accomplishments with other other FLF’s.
How Do I Get Started?
- Complete the registration application and pay the $20 registration fee.
- Go to the calendar. If a session’s available, claim a space, then attend the session. If a session’s not immediately available, note the available meeting times. 1 hour before sessions begin, the booking window opens. During that time, you can claim a seat, attend the session, and knock tasks off your list.
- Payments recur. If you’re not interested in monthly participation, be sure to cancel your membership before your next billing cycle.
