6 weeks of entrepreneurial-style challenges that prove early action accelerates everything—whether you're advancing your career or building something new.
Take action despite uncertainty
Learn from experience
Build confidence
You're already capable and action-oriented. You get things done, meet deadlines, and deliver results.
Goals, opportunities, projects that could change everything
Research thoroughly, perfect the plan, wait for certainty
They share rough drafts, make asks, turn ideas into reality
Ideas stay in your head
Ideas become reality
The difference isn't talent or luck. It's comfort with uncertain action.
You've seen it happen. The colleague who shares imperfect work and gets promoted. The competitor who launches early and captures the market. The friend who asks directly and gets the yes.
What you need is practice being comfortable with uncertain action.
Entrepreneurs can't think their way to success. They have to act despite uncertainty. These actions aren't just for business—they are universal accelerators for any professional goal.
Opens doors you didn't know existed
Gets feedback that improves everything faster
Creates opportunities instead of waiting for them
Builds accountability and attracts support
Through guided practice with these entrepreneurial actions, you'll experience firsthand how much faster you learn and how many more opportunities emerge when you're willing to act before you feel ready.
For action-taking
Aren't as scary as they seem
Through real-world feedback
Career growth, business ideas, opportunities
25 Years Building & Teaching
I'm not the smartest entrepreneur you'll meet, but I'm the one who keeps trying. The through-line isn't perfect strategy—it's willingness to act on opportunities others overthink.
Some ventures failed spectacularly. Others succeeded beyond expectations. But action-taking consistently accelerated learning and opened doors I never saw coming.
FSTEP is built on this principle: you don't get theory from me, you get what's working right now, from someone actively practicing what he teaches.
Not endless hours. Not theory. Just focused action that fits your life.
Receive your week's action challenge. Clear, specific, doable.
Complete your challenge. Document what you learn. No perfection required.
Process your experience with the community. See what others discovered.
Get unstuck in real-time. Go deeper with expert guidance.
Each week builds on the last. Each challenge unlocks new capabilities.
Week 1: Take an Experiment
Learn through action instead of analysis. Build comfort with trying things that might not work.
Week 2: Make Public Commitment
Practice visibility and accountability. Learn that others usually want to help when you're clear about your direction.
Week 3: Have Difficult Conversation
Build comfort with productive conflict. Learn that most "difficult" conversations become opportunities once you start them.
Week 4: Make an Offer
Practice being clear about what you bring to the table. Learn that value becomes visible through offers, not descriptions.
Week 5: Tell Your Story
Build comfort with visibility and personal narrative in a professional context. Learn that authenticity builds trust faster than perfection.
Week 6: Make an Ask
Learn that asking directly usually works better than hoping. Build comfort with receiving both "yes" and "no" answers.
Whether you use this for career advancement, business exploration, or general opportunity creation, the core skills are the same: comfort with uncertain action.

Get clarity on everything you need to know about building action-taking skills through FSTEP.
This program was designed for this exact concern. Your first public post explicitly frames this as a professional development program you've joined to build valuable skills. All subsequent challenges are positioned as part of your coursework. This context makes you look ambitious and proactive, not like a flight risk.
Absolutely. FSTEP is designed as a powerful professional development program that builds the most sought-after skills in today's market: proactive problem-solving, taking initiative, rapid prototyping, and resilience. Unlike theoretical courses, our graduates demonstrate these skills through a public portfolio of work. We are happy to provide a detailed curriculum summary and invoice you can submit for your company's Learning & Development or training budget.
The FSTEP CORE program is a one-time investment of $397. The FSTEP PRO program, which includes ongoing community access and direct support, is a one-time payment of $439 (which covers your first month), and then $65/month. Note: A significant discount is available for Founding Members for a limited time. You can see a full breakdown in the pricing section above.
You're never "ready", and that's perfectly okay. The program is built to make it easy, and the community is there to make it fun and to support you. Plus, you have the cover of the program, so you can always tell people you "have to" do this and they'll understand why you're suddenly more active.
Yes. I designed this specifically for busy professionals. The 4-6 hour weekly commitment is real, but it's focused and structured to fit alongside your life, not take it over. It's about consistent, effective effort, not endless hours logging into a course portal.
With FSTEP PRO, you get direct access to me for guidance and feedback in our weekly group coaching calls and within the private community. But just as important, you get the collective energy and accountability of the entire FSTEP network. The FSTEP CORE plan is a self-guided experience without direct community or coaching access.
Most programs focus on mindset and theory. We focus on action and evidence. You build confidence by proving to yourself that you can handle uncertain situations, not by just learning about confidence.
Perfect—this isn't about business creation. These action-taking skills apply to career advancement, project leadership, networking, or any area where you want to be more proactive.
Yes, of course. If you start with FSTEP CORE and decide you want the added accountability and support of the FSTEP PRO community, you can upgrade at any time by paying the difference.
I'm here to help you figure out if FSTEP is right for your goals.
