75 Smart Brain Challenge — Live Kickoff
For anyone who wants to spend less time passively consuming and more time actively using their brain.
If you want to read more, think more clearly, spend less time on your phone, build better attention habits, and get back to doing things with your hands, 75 Smart is for you.
Think 75 Hard, but for your brain.
75 Smart is a 75-day Quiet Brain Club challenge built around simple daily practices: reading, writing by hand, spending time outdoors, working with your hands, meditating, and reducing constant digital stimulation.
We start together on September 11 and finish on November 24, just before Thanksgiving.
This isn't about doing 75 days perfectly. It's about showing up consistently — and doing it together.
You'll check in each day, earn points for the practices you complete, see your progress on the community leaderboard, and contribute to the Club Score. Your consistency helps move the whole club forward.
Join the live kickoff to learn:
What 75 Smart is and how it works
The daily practices and why they're included
How daily check-ins, points, the Club Score, and leaderboard work
How to register and save your personal check-in link
How to participate alongside the QBC community

The challenge begins September 11. No prior QBC event or experience is required.
About The Quiet Brain Club
The Quiet Brain Club is a community built around training the brain — particularly attention, creativity, cognitive fitness, and our ability to regulate and recover in a world of constant stimulation.
We bring together research, practical training, and community to explore a simple idea: the brain, like the body, benefits from deliberate practice.
