Is my SaaS idea viable

Hi guys,

i'm seeking your knowledge, i've arrived in a new country where i have no friends at the moment, so it's tough to brainstorm ideas.

My SAAS idea is behind setting goals and sticking to it.

As everyone know, setting goals and commiting to it is very hard if you don't have the mindset. Even if you write it down, put everything in a calendar, it require commitment.

So, to 'force' you to do so, my idea is having someone else who have goals too, and each week they schedule a meeting either in person around a coffee, or video call or simple phone call, and list goals that needs to be done for the next week(or 2 weeks or 1 month).

Each week, each person list the goals and if they've done their homeworks. if someone don't finish they will feel miserable and

So the idea is this: - Find a person in a relatively similar life position as you - Schedule a meeting with them every week (or every 2 weeks, or month) - Define a list of goals for yourself - Communicate them to your new friend (they'll do the same to you) - Write them down - Have them all done by the time you meet again - Rinse/repeat

Just the accountability aspect alone is enough to get things done.

Also, it helps to sit down for short time and actually think about what you want to accomplish short-term.

One of the biggest benefits of this exercise is establishing a stronger relationship with your new friend.

So what do you think guys?
