$1 for you

Help me stop complaining.

I want to change some of my behaviors. What else is new, right? (I’ll tell you what is new!) I have a new strategy for getting through my habit-gimmick-resistant brain.

Between now and the end of October, I’ll give $1 to the first person who calls me out at any time if they witness me doing any of the following:

  1. Complaining about anything. Anything! Complaining is stupid.
  2. Talking ill about anyone behind their back. Gossipping.
  3. Eating junk food, drinking soda.
  4. Drinking anything alcoholic except red wine.

2 social habits, 2 health habits: a good start for now. I might edit or add as I go along.

I’m planning to use Chirpify to pay people, since I’ve been wanting to use their service, and like how it automatically adds a public element to the self-challenge. So anyone on Twitter or the internet at large can feel free to call me out whenever!

Please, call me out!

Also, if you want me to call you out on anything, let me know! It can be a thing we do. Ready?

It’s on!
