WorkSprint is a 14-day group challenge for solopreneurs, creators, and anyone who wants to kick their procrastination habit and finally finish a project.
With structured accountability & a tight-knit community—WorkSprint helps you build the strong work ethic you need to achieve your goals.
You have goals. You have projects you want to complete.
And the thing is, you know you’re capable of succeeding. You have the right ideas, plans, and desire to create something.
But no matter what you’ve tried, you can’t seem to escape the trap of indecision and inaction.
If this sounds like you, then welcome to the club.
This procrastination trap plagues modern knowledge workers, solopreneurs and creators who have a seemingly endless amount of options in front of them.
But you do not need to stay in this trap. You can escape it, and you should escape it.
WorkSprint is a 14-day group challenge that helps you escape the procrastination trap and take massive action on a goal or project.
You’ll join a community of other knowledge workers, creators, solopreneurs and entrepreneurs collectively pushing to change and build (or rebuild) their work ethic.
But the cornerstone of WorkSprint is the accountability-driven action taking. This is not an online course. It’s not a bunch of information. It’s a system, designed specifically to help you make a drastic change and finally get work done.
The WorkSprint Method is built on the truth that you don’t need another tactic, strategy, or more information to solve your procrastination problem.
What you need is to take immediate and massive action towards one goal or project.
The process is simple:
Here’s how it works, in more detail…
The first step during WorkSprint is to choose the goal or project you want to work on during the 14 days.
There will be a live training on this before the start date. If you miss it, you can watch the replay.
Note: We strongly emphasize that choosing A project or goal is better than choosing NO project or goal. The purpose of the WorkSprint is not to have you work on the highest potential project, but to change your work habits and stop procrastinating.
It’s much easier to stay on the path and do what you’re supposed to do when everyone else is doing the same.
As part of WorkSprint, you’ll get access to our Slack Community where you can ask questions, get help, and share your insights. You’ll also post your daily check-ins here.
Every day after you’ve hit your 90 mins of focused work, you’ll post in the Daily Check-Ins channel on Slack.
It can be as simple as a screenshot, photo, short Loom video, or something else. You have to show that you’ve done the work.
If you want to keep things private and don’t want others to see your check-ins, you’ll have the ability to privately DM your check-ins to me on Slack.
You’ll also get access to multiple live calls over the 14 days. These are optional to join, but they are valuable.
There’s a mix of training sessions and virtual coworking sessions.
During the coworking sessions, we spend 45 minutes working (everyone on mute), and then take a 15-min break. During that break, we review our last 45 min session and plan the next. These go for ~3 hours, but you can join and leave at any time.
All live training sessions are recorded and transcripted for those who can’t make it.
Note: Attending these training and coworking sessions is completely optional. If you’re short on time, better to do the work you need to do instead of join these calls.
Also, don’t let timezone issues prevent you from joining—the best part of WorkSprint is the daily accountability and community environment, not the calls.

Escape the cycle of overthinking, stop procrastinating, and build massive momentum working towards a single goal over 14 days.
You’ve just finished your first WorkSprint.
You’ve shipped something. Maybe it’s a project you’ve been wanting to finish for months (or years).
Maybe it’s multiple articles that you’re extremely proud to have published.
Maybe it’s finally gaining traction on your YouTube channel because you’ve been uploading consistently.
Despite the headwinds, you’ve successfully:
But most importantly, you’ve now developed a skill.
That skill? Action.
You’ve gone from procrastinator to execution machine.
From overthinker to action-oriented thinker.
From over-analyzer to committed.
WorkSprint was just the start. Who knows what’s in store for you now.
Hi, I’m Sam Matla.
In the last six months, I’ve:
And I did most of this admist a busy travel schedule, moving house, training for a mountain marathon, and working less than 6 hours per day (focused work).
But I wasn’t always this productive. In fact, I was the complete opposite of productive for many years, despite being “successful.”
I started my first online business at age 14. I was diligent. Every day after I got home from school, I’d write content for the website (I published 90 articles in the first year). My second business was similar. I worked on it every day.
This ability to work consistently and diligently played a huge role in my third online business attempt, which lead to me building EDMProd—one of the most popular resources for learning electronic music production online.
But the success of that business made me complacent.
The money was mostly passive. I didn’t need to work (though I should have). And slowly but surely, I transformed into a procrastinator.
By mid 2020, I hated it. I had so many ideas, goals, projects. I had things I knew I should be doing. But I just couldn’t get myself to do the work!
After going off-grid for a few nights and properly thinking (not overthinking), I created a system for myself:
It was the exact system I needed to kick myself out of paralysis and finally get done what I needed to get done.
And now, I’m turning system (with the addition of a vibrant community, daily check-in accountability, and virtual coworking sessions) into WorkSprint to help others make the same transformation.
You skimmed the page, didn’t ya?
The short version is that WorkSprint is a cohort-based sprint of people wanting to defeat procrastination by executing daily towards a singular project or goal.
That daily execution? It’s a minimum of 90 minutes per day, for 14 days.
To help you hit that target, we have a structured accountability system where you check in every day with some sort of proof of work. If you miss three daily check-ins, you don’t graduate from the WorkSprint. Simple.
Beyond that, we have 2x virtual co-working calls per week (everyone’s on mute, and we spend 45 min focusing/15 min break for a few hours).
And we have a Slack Community where you can ask questions, build relationships, get help, post your wins, and more.
Let me be clear: WorkSprint is what I wish I had when I was in the deep pit of chronic procrastination.
What I really needed was someone to come alongside me and say, “Hey Sam. I know you don’t want to stay where you are. Let’s set a goal together. Let’s change this once and for all. Let’s finally DO something.”
And then stick with me until I’d changed.
See, WorkSprint is not just another online course. It’s not another money grab. It’s something that’s been carefully designed to maximize output and consistent work effort.
We want your WorkSprint investment to be risk-free.
If you give it an honest effort, attend the live sessions, and complete at least 50% of the daily check-ins but feel unsatisfied—we’ll refund you.
And if you find after signing up that your schedule is busier than you expected it to be (life gets in the way), then we’ll roll you forward into a future sprint for zero additional cost.
But part of what makes WorkSprint effective is the “skin in the game” and accountability. We don’t want you to back out. We want you to do the work. If you don’t engage at all with the cohort, don’t complete any daily check-ins, and don’t attend any live sessions, then you won’t be eligible for a refund.
After the 14 day sprint, you should feel accomplished, confident, and also have a feeling of momentum.
We’ll wrap things up with a group video call (optional), and give you the option to join the next WorkSprint for an exclusive discounted price (we’ve designed it so you can do it again and again).
You’ll retain access to any training videos and recordings, as well as the shared community general chat (minus the daily check-ins channel and future cohorts).
No, you choose your own project or goal to work on.
WorkSprint is project-agnostic. If you want to publish 4 videos on your YouTube Channel in 14 days, go for it. If you want to finish your book, go for it.
There are criteria that we strongly recommend you follow to get the most out of the experience, those are:
You sure can! And if you manage to pull it off, all the more power to you. That’s awesome.
But what I’ve found working with other entrepreneurs, solopreneurs and creators is that accountability is sorely needed.
When you’re working by yourself, it’s way too easy to get derailed and procrastinate. You can have the best “productivity model” in the world, but if there’s little incentive to stick with it, then you won’t.
At the core of WorkSprint is the robust accountability system that has you check-in daily. It’s intense, sometimes uncomfortable, but it damn well works.
I get you. You’re not alone.
Like many others (including myself), you probably struggle with overthinking and analysis paralysis.
Maybe you have a few ideas for projects, but you just can’t decide.
The truth is, you will need to make a decision, but I’ll help you do that. On the onboarding call, we have a full training session on how to choose and plan your project (even if you’re a chronic overthinker).
Our philosophy is that choosing a project is better than not doing any work at all. And it’s only 14 days, so if you work on something that’s suboptimal (unlikely), it’s only been less than a month—and you’ve probably picked up a few healthy work habits along the way.
Timezones and schedules are a thing, and while we try to accommodate for everyone, sometimes it’s just not possible.
With that said, the live training sessions are more of an “add-on” to WorkSprint. The core value is in the community and accountability—both of which can be engaged in regardless of timezone or schedule.
All training sessions will be recorded. The virtual coworking sessions won’t be.
In the future, as WorkSprint grows, we plan to have more virtual coworking sessions (ideally multiple times per day to accommodate different timezones).
If you think having structured accountability, a vibrant community of others all working towards their own goals and projects, and a set timeframe of 14 days to really push forward your project—then yes, it’s worth it.
If you’re working on a big project (like a book), then you can treat your WorkSprint as a 14-day time period to really push an aspect of the project forward (example: write the entire first draft of the book).
