Do it

67 Personal Nag

Nobody likes a nag. (A person who keeps ‘bothering /reminding’ you over & over again.)
A parent is often like that.

 

But what if you could take advantage of that!
What if you deliberately ask someone to become your Personal Nag.

 

In my case it’s food.
I love to eat.
So eventually I get a little uncomfortable with my weight.
And usually go on a two /three week diet.

 

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.

 

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.

 

Choose something you need /want to do.
Find the best Personal Nag for that.
Set a time limit.
Make them agree to that limit before you start.
