This is a structured coworking session for people who want to follow through and get it done. To join, please register here (takes 1–2 minutes): [https://nocrastination.space/](https://nocrastination.space/) **We like a touch of mystery!** **The exact location will be sent to you by email 24 hours before the session. Please make sure to register in advance.** Join our [WhatsApp group](https://chat.whatsapp.com/K6LidaoQhe16wZ0Se9pNM6?mode=gi_t). Follow us on [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/nocrastinationclub/) You just haven’t been able to follow through. You start things, lose momentum and find yourself starting over again. You’re not alone. Most people get support at the beginning. And applause at the end. But the part that actually matters? The middle. The quiet, repetitive, sometimes frustrating part where nothing feels exciting, and everything depends on showing up. **That’s where we are.** At NoCrastination, we don’t meet for hype. We meet to **show up and finish something, together.** Not perfectly. Not magically. Just consistently. **What this really is** This is a space for people who are: * building something * figuring things out * or simply trying to stay on track **without doing it alone** You don’t need to be an entrepreneur. You just need something you want to move forward. **What happens here** You bring something you’ve been putting off. We sit down together. We focus. And you leave with something done. That’s it. And that’s everything. **Why people keep coming back** * “I finally follow through on what I plan” * “I leave with real progress every time” **Time and Location** 🕐 **Time:** 9:30 AM – 12:30 NOON 💻 **Bring:** Your laptop, journal, or anything you’ve been avoiding **Hosted by**: NoCrastination. See you across from the ground floor bar ✨ you will see us sitting at the long table with our laptops ☕ Please do order something from the local host, so as to keep us in their good graces! **How it works** * **9:30–9:45 → arrival + soft intro + set your task** * **Deep focus sessions (2 x 45’ + 15’ breaks)** * Quiet focus + optional social space * Drop in anytime, stay as long as you want Simple structure. Real progress. **First time joining?** We are near the ground floor bar 💛 We’ll get you settled. **This is for you if:** * You keep starting but don’t finish * You feel stuck working alone * You want structure — without pressure * You want to express yourself AND move forward **What you’ll get** Not motivation. Not a productivity hack. **You’ll get: ONE THING DONE.** And then you come back, and do it again. **This is how it starts** You don’t need to commit to anything big. Just come once. Pick one thing. Finish it. We’ll be there. As we’re growing and improving the experience, we’re moving to a more structured system. Registration is part of participating. **Stay connected** Join our [WhatsApp group](https://chat.whatsapp.com/K6LidaoQhe16wZ0Se9pNM6?mode=gi_t) Follow us on [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/nocrastinationclub/) This is a space you can keep coming back to. **You’re not behind. You’re just in the middle.** And you don’t have to go through it alone. You are one of us.

**Ein bisschen Glitzer, ein bisschen Pop und ganz viel Brompton!** Am **14\. Mai** führt uns unser Brompton Social Ride quer durch die **Eurovision Song Contest**-Stimmung in Wien – inklusive einem Abstecher zur Wiener Stadthalle, um uns den Eventstandort einmal aus nächster Nähe anzuschauen, bevor wir weiter zum Haus der Geschichte Österreich rollen. Dort tauchen wir gemeinsam in die Ausstellung **„Unstoppable! Eurovision Song Contest Highlights im Museum“** ein. **Beschreibung der Ausstellung:** Unpolitisch? Wohl kaum. Zwar sind politische Botschaften beim Eurovision Song Contest (ESC) offiziell verboten, doch sie finden dennoch ihren Weg auf die Bühne – manchmal laut, manchmal subtil. Denn auch große Unterhaltung erzählt immer von ihrer Zeit. Treffpunkt ist um 17:00 in der Brompton Junction Vienna, von dort fahren wir gemeinsam los – zuerst zur Stadthalle, danach weiter Richtung Neue Burg. Vor Ort lassen wir uns durch die Ausstellung treiben und nehmen ein Stück ESC-Geschichte mit. **Wichtig:** Bitte nehmt ein Schloss mit — Wir werden unsere Räder vor der Burg abstellen. Für die Rückfahrt braucht man vielleicht Lichter. Es sind keine festen Stops entlang der Route geplant – aber natürlich lassen wir uns Zeit und genießen die Fahrt. Wie immer gilt: kein Rennen! Alle sind willkommen, niemand wird zurückgelassen. Alle FahrerInnen, die sich mit Tempo und Distanz Wohl fühlen, sind herzlich eingeladen mitzukommen. Wir freuen uns auf einen bunten, entspannten Ride mit euch! **Unsere Gemeinschaftsregeln:** **1.** Sei freundlich. Heiße andere Fahrer willkommen und ermutige sie. Beleidigungen, Beschämungen und Hass werden entfernt, und Zuwiderhandelnde werden gesperrt. **2.** Deine Sicherheit liegt in deiner Verantwortung. Helme sind Pflicht. Bei Fahrten im Dunkeln ist Beleuchtung vorgeschrieben. Es liegt in der Verantwortung jedes Fahrers, sicherzustellen, dass sein Fahrrad sauber, gut gewartet und voll funktionsfähig ist. **3.** Alle Fahrräder sind willkommen. Gelegentliche Veranstaltungen nur für Brompton-Fahrräder werden deutlich gekennzeichnet. Kontaktiere deinen örtlichen Brompton-Händler, wenn du für eine Veranstaltung ein Brompton ausleihen möchtest (Teilnahme kann variieren). **4.** Wenn sich deine Pläne ändern, aktualisiere bitte deine Zusage. **DURCH DIE TEILNAHME an dieser Veranstaltung ERKENNEN SIE AN und AKZEPTIEREN Sie Folgendes:** Ich ERKENNE AN, stimme zu und erkläre, dass ich die Natur der Fahrradaktivitäten verstehe und dass ich qualifiziert, bei guter Gesundheit und in guter körperlicher Verfassung bin, um an einer solchen Aktivität teilzunehmen.

Though we try to start on dot, being late isn't a problem—just find a spot and get to work! We write until 20:00 and then discuss how our writing went.

Weekly screenings from a large archive of many of the most significant, yet seldom seen and rarely accessible cinematic masterpieces in the history of film - from its earliest beginnings to the present day. Screenings are in original language, if English, or original language with English subtitles. Films are selected democratically on the inspiration of a brief pre-screening discussion. The selected title is typically a "neglected gem" that most of us discover together for the first time. Individual taste is not a criterion and all participants are expected to put the interests of the group as a whole above personal preference or prejudice. In this sense, the emphasis is on openness, exploration, and surprise. Each screening is followed by an in-depth group discussion, led and moderated by the curator. WARNNG: FilmStory is not just about watching movies! Rather, it's a socially responsible, intellectual engagement, involving an organic approach to group study of film language, philosophy, art, history, politics, and technology. In this sense, the film is always merely the current highlight in an explorative, ongoing group discussion. **FilmStory** is a members-only series that involves a closely knit community of cinephiles. Events take place every Sunday in a comfortable, private setting with limited capacity. Participation is reserved primarily for regular members, but we're always ready to make new friends! Non-regular members may request to meet the community and, upon acceptance as a "new joiner," are welcome to participate in one event, according to space availability. New joiners are asked to make a €6 member dues contribution in advance of the requested date. New members receive a message of confirmation and the address of the Living Room in 1080 Vienna upon receipt of their dues contribution. **FilmStory** is presented and hosted by **[KulturSalon Wien](https://www.meetup.com/kultursalon-wien/)**.
