Nobody likes a nag. (A person who keeps \u2018bothering \/reminding’ you over & over again.)
\nA parent is often like that.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
But what if you could take advantage of that! <\/p>\n In my case it’s food. <\/p>\n Once I deliberately asked someone at home (and someone else at work) to be my Personal Nag for exactly three weeks. They had to promise ahead of time to stop nagging in exactly three weeks.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Since I was the one who asked them, both they and I felt comfortable doing this and we even made it a game. And it worked! I lost the same weight I’d have lost if they were not nagging me but somehow it was much, much easier to do. Maybe it was the attention, maybe the fact that I had someone silently applauding my efforts. Whatever it was, it was easier.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Choose something you need \/want to do. <\/p>\n ————————–<\/p>\n These are related:<\/strong><\/p>\n 6<\/strong> Feed Yourself<\/a> – 9<\/strong> Worry<\/a> – 11<\/strong> Feedback<\/a> – 15<\/strong> K.I.S.S.<\/a> – 16<\/strong> Follow Up<\/a><\/p>\n 18<\/strong> Being Triggered<\/a> – 32<\/strong> Red Light, Green Light<\/a> – 43<\/strong> Desire<\/a> – 65<\/strong> Wealth<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Nobody likes a nag.

\nWhat if you deliberately<\/em> ask someone to become your Personal Nag.<\/p>\n
\nI love to eat.
\nSo eventually I get a little uncomfortable with my weight.
\nAnd usually go on a two \/three week diet.<\/p>\n
\nFind the best Personal Nag for that.
\nSet a time limit.
\n<\/strong>Make them agree to that limit before you start.<\/p>\n
