Getting things done is hard. Well, at least if you’re a procrastinator. If you are one of those, then you should give DontBreakTheChain.com a try. This service is based, believe it or not, in a method conceived by comedian Jerry Seinfeld. In short, all you have to do is set yourself a goal and a date to achieve it by. Then, mark off the days on the calendar that you work towards your goal. In a couple of weeks, you’ll have a nice chain of crossed off days, which you’ll then want to maintain. Even though it sounds simple, this method could literally help you achieve those goals you’re too lazy to achieve.
For example, feel like losing a couple of pounds? Set a goal due date and start crossing off the days you exercise, after a while, you’ll have your chain all set, and with some luck, a few less pounds. Method doesn’t convince you? Give it a try, you’ll be surprised.
“This is based upon a motivation technique purportedly used by Jerry Seinfeld”
This is a great motivational tool. It should be put into practice by anyone that has a hard time getting things done.
Will people like the method? Isn’t it for those of us that are a little OCD (the fear of breaking the chain isn’t too normal)?
