Future Loop
Future Loop is a "life-hack" for achieving a goal with AI-enhanced research + the neuroscience of Goal Achievement.
It's also like having a friend use AI for a few minutes each week to find ideas & strategies that might help you achieve a goal.
But it's not even really about the ideas/strategies. It's about bringing our attention back to focus on our goals.
What to do:
Choose a goal you want to achieve this year (career goals, business goals).
-
Every week, you'll receive an email that brings your attention back to the goal.
-
Reply and answer 2 questions: What did you do last week, and what will you do this week?
We use AI to research solutions customized precisely for your situation.​
You can contact us and tell us you'd like to try Future Loop.
​
Future Loop is a feedback loop.
It circulates information back to you. Our AI-enhanced research is based on the notes we keep about your goal and the progress you've made. ​
Each weekly email has a concept or question for you to think about. It pulls your attention back to the goal.
Each week until you achieve the goal, you'll get an email with ideas & strategies to help you achieve your goal. You can add new goals any time, or tell us about any progress you make toward the goal, etc.​
We're using AI-enhanced research for a competitive advantage. We use Perplexity/Gemini/Grok/ChatGPT/others.​
You'll be helping us by showing a real-life scenario where you're achieving a goal.
What is a goal you want to pull your attention back to over and over in 2025?​

How & Why Future Loop Works
The Future Loop is based on simple ideas from psychology about achieving goals.
TOTE Model (Test-Operate-Test-Exit)
The TOTE model describes a basic way we achieve goals:
-
Test: Check where you are right now.
-
Operate: Take action to move forward.
-
Test again: Check your progress again.
-
Exit: Repeat until you reach your goal.
With Future Loop, every Monday email is a "test." You review your progress, decide on an action for the week ("operate"), then next Monday you "test" again. You keep going until you achieve your goal ("exit"). It’s called a “loop” because it's a cycle that repeats.
Goal-Setting Theory
This theory shows that goals work best when:
-
They are clear and specific.
-
You regularly check on your progress.
-
You write down your goals and plans.
In Future Loop, you clearly state your goal once, then each week you write a simple plan for what you'll do next. Just writing down your next step makes it more likely you'll actually do it.
Feedback-Intervention Theory
This theory explains that feedback helps you succeed because:
-
It focuses your attention on the difference between where you are now and where you want to be.
-
Regular, clear feedback helps you adjust your actions effectively.
The Future Loop provides feedback through Friday emails with helpful ideas, followed by Monday emails where you reflect on your progress. This regular schedule keeps your attention consistently focused on your goal.
Proven Effectiveness: What Research Shows
-
People who regularly check and track their progress improve about 40% more than those who don't.
-
Writing down progress increases this improvement even more.
-
Sharing your progress with someone else gives you the strongest boost in achieving goals.
Future Loop incorporates these findings:
-
Each reply email acts as a written record.
-
Sharing your reply with someone else makes your commitment stronger.
-
Weekly check-ins provide timely and regular feedback, proven effective by research.
In business, or your career, or other parts of life - you can achieve goals with incremental progress.
We will do an AI-enhanced search every week, and you'll get an automatic email with information to help you succeed.
How to participate:
Just choose a few specific goals & tell us about them. If you already have a goal in mind, you can contact us and tell us you'd like to try Future Loop.
