Are you the best version of you? If not, who's in your way?

Face Your NME™. NME means No More Excuses, and you say it like “enemy.” A 12-week quest to face the enemy within, and win one week at a time.

Jan 4 – Mar 28, 2027/Founder applications close Dec 21/5 founding seats

Twelve weeks. One move at a time. Free for founders.

Why I'm building this

For a long time, I negotiated with my excuses.

“You're tired.” “Your plate's already full.” “Next month.” Every one sounded reasonable, and every one cost me something: time, momentum, pieces of the man I knew God made me to be.

The biggest enemy I was facing wasn't a person or my past. It was the excuse I kept agreeing with.

So I stopped negotiating. Faith didn't make the excuses go quiet. It made me stop listening to them.

That's why I'm building Face Your NME. NME stands for No More Excuses. I want to help people see themselves as the hero of their own story, name the enemy, and make one move today, then another.

And I'm starting with me.

The enemy is in me

Your NME has a voice. You know it well.

It never sounds like an enemy. It sounds reasonable. That's how it wins. Season 0 is where it stops winning.

  • “I'll start Monday.”
  • “I'm too tired today.”
  • “I don't have time.”
  • “Who am I to do this?”
  • “It's too late for me.”
Face Your NME 90 · How it works

Three moves. Twelve weeks. One enemy.

I

Name your NME

Start with a short set of questions. You name the excuse that keeps beating you and the goals you're done postponing. Your Hero Tracker is built from your answers.

II

Win the week

Twelve weeks of quests matched to your life: body, mind, spirit, family, work. Clear about 70% of them and you win the week. Miss a day, not the season.

III

Rise with the squad

A weekly check-in keeps you honest. Earn ranks and titles as you go, report at halftime, and finish together at the spring equinox.

Miss a day? You don't start over. You make the next move. That's the whole point.

Your Hero Tracker

A simple app that keeps you honest.

Check in on your phone in under a minute. No app store needed: open it in your browser and add it to your home screen.

Weekly quests

Your habits, sized to the time you actually have, with a win line you can clear.

The Sunday scorecard

Fifteen minutes to name your wins, your NME and next week's one focus.

Ranks and titles

Every check counts. Ranks are earned over seasons, not weekends.

A coach who reads it

I read every scorecard and answer it. If you go quiet, I'll notice.

The road to Hero

Every rank forges your shield in a new metal: iron, steel, bronze, silver, gold, platinum, obsidian, and Hero.

Three sizes of quest
Small

Side Quest

One area to sharpen. A few habits.

  • 2–4 hours a week
  • 15 questions, about 8 minutes
  • The official Face Your NME look
Medium

Main Quest

A real upgrade in two or three areas.

  • 5–8 hours a week
  • 20 questions, about 12 minutes
  • Pick a theme and a title style
Life-changing

Legend Arc

A whole-life rebuild across four or more areas.

  • 9–14 hours a week
  • 37 questions, about 25 minutes
  • Theme, title style, accent color, and your own top rank

Be honest, not heroic. A plan you can win beats a plan you abandon. You can level up after 3 winning weeks.

Founders

Be one of the first.

Before Face Your NME opens to everyone, I'm building it with a small group of founders: people who live with conviction and will tell me the truth.

Become a founder
  • The Hero Tracker, free for life. Day 1 access to the tracker and the quest.
  • A Founder title in the tracker that never goes away.

Questions

Before you answer the call

Is it really free?

Yes. Founders get the Hero Tracker and the quest free, and the tracker stays free for founders for life.

Do I have to be religious?

No. My faith is why I do this, and I'll talk about it. But this is for anyone who is done making excuses.

How much time does it take?

Your quests are sized to the time you actually have: 2–4 hours a week for a Side Quest, up to 9–14 for a Legend Arc. Logging takes about a minute a day, plus 15 minutes on Sunday for the scorecard.

What if I miss a day, or a week?

You don't start over. You make the next move. You win the week, not the day, and a lost week is information: we adjust your quests and you go again.

Do I need to be in shape?

No. Your quests start where you are. The only requirement is that you stop negotiating with your excuses.

Is this only about fitness?

No. Quests cover body, mind, spirit, family, career, money and creative work, whatever your goals are.

When does it start?

Founder applications are open now and close December 21, or sooner if the founding seats are filled. After that, applications still come in, and they go on the waitlist. The quest begins January 4, 2027 and runs through March 28.
