We have to make a million choices each and every day, so it makes sense that to keep things simple, we always make the same ones. But the easy choices don't always mean the right choices.
Commit today to changing it up, to doing something different, and making the choice that improves your life for the better. Believe it or not, pretty soon that choice will be the easy one to make too.

"Successful week 7 - was in Chicago last weekend with Billy Whalen and even after getting home a bit drunk, still did not give in. In the past when I've just committed in my head to stop watching porn, I usually folded after having a few drinks and wrote it off as bad decision making due to alcohol. I still wasn't tempted this time and to me that shows that I'm really sticking to the commitment."
"1 day 20min late
2 days 10 min late
1 day 35min late
1 day 15 min late
1 day 50min late
1 day 40min late
made up for the 90min shortfall by getting to bed 85 min early on subsequent week's Monday and 5 min early on that week's Tuesday (both of which will be counted as merely on time for next week's report)"

"The journey to betterment begins here. No longer are we subject to impulse. No longer are we controlled by the shortcomings of our brain, but we are in control of ourselves. We decide what we put our energy to. It's time to grow up."
"I'll keep this brief because I have other prirorities. In truth, I've lapsed a number of times in recent weeks, but I can't afford to pay the penalty. This does leave me worried about taking the power out of this method by breaking its meaningfulness, but I don't have much choice.
The first instance was in the scramble to make the homework and assignments deadline for the recent training, and I was going to let myself off the hook for this because it was both a milestone challenge and a milestone success. I've since lapsed at home a number of times, including takeaway over the last three days or so.
I am trying to achieve a lot at the moment, including improvements across the board in how I manage everything I have to do and want to achieve. I am seeing slow but meaningful progress whilst, at the same time, it feels like whenever one thing is getting focused attention, something else has to give. This strikes me as quite natural, and so, in a spirit of constructive self-compassion, I'm going to let myself off the hook entirely for all of these slips, especially since I can't afford not to do so, given my extremely tight finances (which, of course, are one of the challenges I'm working hard to get to grips with at this time). Accordingly I don't have time to give all of this much more thought than what I've already typed here: I now have to go over to my budget and give that some attention, and, after missing a few days of doing so, and the takeaway lapses of the last few days, that's going to be complicated and is already feeling aversive, so I don't want to put it off any longer. Broadly-speaking, things are going well! Well done me!"
"Set out running clothes and shoes night before and in the morning, and make sure to put my water bottle in the fridge the night before. Then, the first thing I'll do is get in the running clothes. And while I'm eating breakfast, plan my track. Then I will step outside and, hopefully, run."
"Successful week 6 - similar comments to previous weeks. I feel like each week that goes by, it's less of a thought that even occurs to me, so the temptation isn't that strong anymore. Before the commitment, I would definitely take advantage of being alone at home during the workday or up late at night and watch porn, but I haven't even considered that for a long time now."
"Guess I set this up incorrectly, but it was supposed to start on November 11th. I don't want to lose $$ for setting it up incorrectly so I'm marking it as a yes, but it's a no from yesterday. Goal is for it to be a yes today."
