Let’s help each other out

Shame squirrel incoming / Issue 1,408

Oh, hi friends! 

Tough love Tuesday, it’s time for some good old-fashioned accountability.

There are things that I should do right now, but one that I really need (and want) to do. 

And yet, it’s not getting done.

Funny how that happens! 

So I’ll just tell you about it, with the hope that if I don’t do it by the end today, you might wonder, “Did Kara get to that thing today?” 

And if the answer is “no,” I’ll be so embarrassed that I won’t be able to write a newsletter on Wednesday or any other day thereafter and will disappear in a cloud of humiliation.

Here’s the thing: I’m going to make some final edits on a Project and send it along.

That’s it. 

Make them, send it. 

This should take two hours.

Which means it will actually take four.

But it’s going to feel so good when it’s done.

SO GOOD is the goal.

Do you have a thing right now? 

Do you need some good old-fashioned accountability or “shame productivity”? 

I’m listening. 

Say it, give it a time estimate, double that time, and try to do it today.

I know if I can do my thing, you can do yours.

The Shame Squirrel believes in you! Let’s not let him down.
