We’ve discussed Stickk.com’s unique approach to battling procrastination before. The idea intrigued me enough that I entered into my own commitment bond with -– who else? -– my wife. Check out this ironclad contract:
I, Eric Ferguson, in the interest of not becoming a “Biggest Loser” candidate and maybe even getting totally buff and stuff, do hereby resolve to achieve the following goals in 2010:
- Run at least 15 miles each week
- Complete at least four weightlifting workouts each week
- Consume 2,500 or fewer calories six days a week, with the seventh day constituting a “free day”
To track my progress, I will keep a journal and obtain verification from an impartial third party for each workout. If I fail to meet any of these goals in a given week, I shall pay $20 to Jill Ferguson, who likely will use this money to buy something really lame, such as new washcloths or a Tori Amos album.
Signed,
Eric Ferguson
I’ll keep you apprised of my progress, but I really must be going. I’ve got some miles to run.
My wife has enough Tori Amos records already.
