It’s the first Monday after Daylight Savings, and I bet you are a little sleepy this morning…. *yawn*. Top that off with a little Spring Fever [61 degrees in Chicago today!!!], and we have a recipe for a highly unproductive day.
So here’s how it works:
- Commit to getting something done today. It can be one thing, it can be a lot of things. Just make it public by posting it on your blog or in the comments below.
- Then put some leverage in place. You can either lay down consequences or work toward a reward. Do whatever will motivate you more.
For example, today I will:
- Follow up with my SOAP buddies
- Clean out my inbox again (I knocked out over 300 last week and I’m back up to 180+!!!
) - Clean out voicemails from home phone number
- Send Karen her interview info for her thesis
)I really want to add more to this, but last week I committed to too much and didn’t get to bed until 1:30am. But if I don’t complete these things before I go to bed tonight, I will hand wash and vacuum my husband’s car every week for the next month.
To play along, make your public commitment and just enter your name and url into Mr. Linky below. Then go get to work!
