Open Achievement was created on October 5th, 2008 by an ambitious entrepreneur named Brian Watkins, in order to take on a massive challenge. That challenge was to make a large contribution to the study & possibly the tangible advancement of human achievement at large. Using Brian’s Results Equation (Results = Strategy + Action), he decided to start off by attacking the strategy component and create a world class open source research & development project (Open Achievement Project) that is designed to let anyone passionate about achievement contribute to the effort. This Project is the backbone of the Open Achievement Organization and thus where the name “Open Achievement” was created from.

Open Achievement is taking on a serious challenge. Attempting to research & develop the next level in strategy for the future of human achievement is no small feat by any measurement. We are dealing with the very core, fundamentals of this space. It is not like we are simply writing what we know down in a published book and calling it a day like many do. Instead, we are establishing an organization whose pursuit is to develop a world class R&D Project that can encompass virtually all areas of life, including individual people & groups of people, which openly enables everyone to contribute through a sophisticated open platform.

In addition to our R&D Project, we are currently working to establish a leading Community centered on the subject of human achievement. Having open & direct public involvement is at the core of the Open Achievement philosophy and we feel that the founding premise of Open Achievement can potentially support one of the most prominent communities ever of people interested in achieving further in life. In the beginning, this community will exist as online discussion forums and will expand out from there as Open Achievement grows. We hope to eventually have a flourishing worldwide community both online and in the real world.

Not only are we looking to create massive value for humanity and involve everyone who is passionate about achievement, we are also looking to create a real home for likeminded people to grow within here at Open Achievement. One thing is for sure, we sure have chosen a timeless subject to base our organization & project on that will be fundamental to humanity until the end of time.

Currently, Open Achievement is in beta mode so to speak while developing our Project’s open platform (web developers wanted) and ramping up our online community (community leaders wanted).

Joining Open Achievement is free, quick, and easy. We look forward to sharing & growing with you through Open Achievement!
