Make an ass of yourself, but not by drinking too much

For today’s happy hour, I am asking you to make an ASS out of yourself. No, not by drinking too much.

Monday I wrote about how ASSes are so helpful for me. And I mentioned Tuesday, that accountability is a powerful tool for life fulfillment. So today we are taking those ideas into the Happy Hour exercise. Yesterday I added a GPT to do it, and today I am attaching a template to do your own ASS Plan.

If you didn’t read the earlier notes:

Author Aaron Ross writes about creating forcing functions that get you into action. He calls them ASSes.

1.     Announce to others that you’ll create a  ….

2.     Specific outcome, by a …

3.     Specific date

Or more simply have a deadline that other people know about.

It’s so true! Somehow you magically know what to triage when the time gets tight.

He writes this is how he motivates himself when he is tired, confused, unsure what to do and to ensure he does the important but not urgent things that typically get pushed aside.

Be sure you choose items to announce that you can control. 

I’ve added this to the shop as a free download too to come back to and it is attached to this note.
