DESCRIPTION
Would you like support for keeping your commitments? Does “I don’t want to, I don’t feel like it” sabotage your resolve? If so, this program is for you. Whatever your commitment—a fitness routine, not yelling at the kids, filing your taxes, a work project, a report for a class, a daily meditation practice—conditioned mind will work overtime to talk you out of it. Having someone to be accountable to for keeping our commitments is powerful support.
 

HOW IT WORKS

  • Sign up for the program
  • You will be assigned a Buddy. You text your Buddy what your commitment is. Then each day, you report on your commitment via text. Your Buddy will acknowledge your report.
  • NEW THIS QUARTER! You are registering to be both a Buddy and a participant. You will send a text to a Buddy. You will also be a Buddy to another participant and acknowledge their report via a text.

TESTIMONIAL
Having a Buddy to report to helps keep the self-hating voice of ‘you will fail’ from being the only input I hear. I love this simple program.
