Doer: Overcome Procrastination

Lesson ten: use commitment devices and reminders


Listen Later

In this lesson you’ll learn to use commitment devices and reminders to achieve long term goals.

Key ideas:


There are three critical factors required to accomplish a long-term goal:

1️⃣ Turn vague intentions into a specific and actionable plan. 

2️⃣ Set commitment devices that hold you accountable for making progress, even when you don't feel like it. For instance, scheduling regular updates to trusted individuals can serve as a commitment device.

3️⃣ Set reminders that keep your goal at the forefront of your attention. They should be tied to actions you will definitely do. Even if the main task can't be completed, have a shortened version of the task to keep up with the habit.
