The Keep:Short-Term Goal Accountability

The Short-Term Goal Accountability guild offers Habiteers incentive and encouragement to get things done. There are several recurring challenges, with new challenges regularly being created and tested.

Shared Interest: Getting things done soon.

Guild Message: New home of the Deepest Darkest Red and other productivity challenges. Need an extra push to accomplish something today, this week, or this month? Here you can announce your goal, report your results, and be cheered on by others (or be motivated by the thought of having to admit failure). No goal is too small to mention here if you need accountability to help you get it done.

Deepest Darkest Red
Bravely face your deepest, darkest red To-Do this week! This challenge requires you to complete the To-Do that has been on your list the longest AND is possible for you to do by the end of the challenge week. (For example, if your darkest red To-Do is "Lose 10 pounds" or "Write a novel," skip it -- unless you're really only one week away from finishing it -- and go to the next oldest To-Do.)

Theme Week
Make a focus for this week. Come up with something you can do every day to reach the theme. Slow and steady is good. The tasks can be dailies, To-Dos, Habits -- even rewards. What matters is that you stay on task all week long. If you miss one day, you need to make up that day to stay on track. Remember -- we're starting the week with Monday, so if you join the challenge on Sunday, you can either start early or count choosing your theme for the daily.
