For the month of March I set a goal to lose 5 pounds. I knew I could do
it, but the key was to find the right motivation. I was inspired by stikk
to put some money on my belief that I was going to lose 5 pounds over
the month of March. So the next question was how much and where would
it go? I decided, unimaginatively, that if I did not lose 5 pounds I
would have to give $100 to Timber. And wouldn't you know it, not only
did I lose 5 pounds, I lost 6.5 pounds. Now I am setting a goal to lose
another 5 pounds for the month of April, but this time I need a bigger
incentive. And I found it! My punishment, if I don't lose 5 pounds over
the month of April will be to do something with $50 that is worse than
flushing it down the toilet or setting it on fire. If I don't lose 5
pounds in the month of April I'll contribute $50 toward Hillary
Clinton's campaign. :-) And I really don't like Hillary...
