Testimonials
Word on the street
I made more progress in the last 35 days than in 35 years prior. I went from having 100 ideas and 0 execution, to 1 idea and 100% ship fast mentality. I owe it all to a few moments of encouragement that I never got before, not for the lack of skill, but for the lack of trying. Don't wait. Start tonight. LFG!!!
I achieved my goal of launching. And I've never come this close. Deep work feels like it's a part of how I operate now. And I love it. I would wake up every morning at 4am, log into starter story and get my deep work in, I hit the gym at 6am PST, and I've already won the day no matter what happens after that. Grateful.
This got me moving forward on things I wish I started 3-4 months ago. Thank you!
Being part of the AI Build Bootcamp has been an amazing experience. I came in eager to dive into AI's latest capabilities, and I left with a fully launched project. Big thanks to Lazar and the Starter Story community for their support and for keeping all of us on track!
If you’ve seen all the hype about AI but have no idea where or how to get started, this program is for you. Not only is the content helpful and easy to follow, but there are so many built-in features to help you make progress - from countdown timers to dripped milestones, leaderboards, and prizes. All online courses should be delivered like this. If you're thinking about it, do it. You won't regret it.
Great course to learn to build An AI-powered web app in one week
The AI bootcamp completely transformed my productivity through its accountability system. I accomplished more in one month than in the previous 4-5 months combined. Having to regularly share progress eliminated my excuses for procrastination and kept me focused on a single project instead of jumping between ideas.
This program is unique. You MUST do deep work. You are guided, week by week. It’s so great to finally get an outline that works, that doesn't give you time to get caught up in nonsense, and just prioritizes your time and efforts.
Great community, amazing members, and an accountability platform that ensures that each cohort is focused on shipping, building and growing a business idea.
Would highly recommend joining if you're still on the fence about it. You will ship something and you will be pushed to do it. Stop overthinking it, and send it!
