timhm Jul 18, 2019, 3:38 PM"I've been getting a lot of mixed feelings towards this commitment. First off, I did not expect that I would start going Ham on the studying at the last minute. A second of all, I believe the summer class that I have made me push on with it. So I have been thinking about either extending it with a part 2 or dropping it once it's over. The only reason why I'm thinking about making part 2 and dropping it.. well, part 2 is to keep motivating me to push on until my summer class ends. The ending the commitment part is just me not seeing it's worth it because I've been kinda force to doing it because my mom wants me to do "something". So yeah.. what do you guys think should I extend the commitment with a part 2 or just drop it once I finish this commitment? "View my Commitment -
jrenman Jul 18, 2019, 1:47 PM"I indeed have been successful the past 2 weeks, but I didn't log it. I finished IF We Can Keep It which I really enjoyed. I read another political book, that I can't remember the Full Title but it was called An Uncivil War - Taking Back Our Democracy in an Age of Trumpian Disinformation and Thunderdome Politics by Greg Sargent, which I also enjoyed. I finished another book called Blood At The Root, A Racial Cleansing in America by Patrick Phillips That I couldn't put down. Now I'm reading For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Politics.

safibta Jul 18, 2019, 11:21 AM"Commitments considered in the present Stickk commitment: 1. I will reach office by 0744 every day, except Saturdays. 2. The following points: 2.1. from 0630 in Korean Standard Time to 0930 in Korean Standard Time, I will not sit or lie down on any chair, bed, floor, or stairs in the building 17-22 (also known as Paradia) in Daegu, South Korea 2.2. from 0630 in Korean Standard Time to 0930 in Korean Standard Time, I will not sleep anywhere within 2 feet of Cartesian distance of the periphery of my bed in the building 17-22 (also known as Paradia) in Daegu, South Korea which consists of a mattress and the wooden structure on which it rests. If this point, i.e. point 2.2, fails to hold true on a given morning, even if the said failure in accidental, the present Stickk commitment must be considered violated for that day. 3. Exceptions in this commitment are the following cases: --- sitting on the toilet seat inside the restroom of the studio I live in when the following criteria is met: ----- I can use my Samsung Galaxy S9 only after I activate the Paradia Toilet applock profile on it ----- if my Samsung Galaxy S9 is not in the Paradia Toilet applock profile, then I must make it that the first thing before using this device ----- during this activity of sitting, I am not touching anywhere, with or without any clothes in between, except the surface of a toilet seat on which a person is supposed to sit --- sitting on the wooden chair in the studio I live in when the following criteria is met: ----- purpose of this sitting activity is to wear socks ----- during this activity of sitting, I am not touching a desk with or without any clothes or bag in between ----- as soon as I sit, the next thing I should do is to wear socks and as soon as I have worn socks, I must get up. Notes applicable to the present journal entry: - notice period for revoking or designating new wakeup time for a given day is the office reaching time of that day minus 10 hours. (so e.g. if I am to reach office at 7:59 a.m., then I must put the journal entry designating the revoking or the updated office reaching time by 9:59 p.m. on the previous day) - For Saturdays, the default value for the rule is "revoked". In other words, I am not obligated to go to office. But this is the default value, and can be overridden by a different time. - Violation penalty per instance (i.e. per defaulted day): one usable 5000 South Korean Won currency note torn on that day before 9:59 p.m. If this action is not carried out, the quantity of the usable 5000 South Korean Won currency notes torn increases by one every six hours thereafter. - All times stated by me in this journal entry are in Korean time zone and in accordance with zero offset from the time shown by the casio watch that I am wearing as I write this journal entry. - I am not allowed to change the time shown on my casio watch for the purpose of avoiding the penalty associated with this stickk commitment - This commitment can be revoked or altered for a given day by writing a journal entry of the format: "(date) "revoked (in case of revoking) or new time (in case of updated reaching time)" e.g. "2018-10-25 revoked" or "2018-10-25 9:54 a.m." - note on loopholes: I assume there are loopholes in all my Stickk commitments. When I exploit a loophole, in order for this loophole to be considered a valid reason for not incurring the penalty of the present Stickk commitment as defined in the present journal entry, I must state in digital or physical writing a satisfactory definition of the loophole that I have exploited in the considered instance. For this definition of the considered loophole to be considered valid, the following criteria must hold: --- I must end this definition with a period and do so before the due time of the incurring penalty defined in the present journal entry in the considered instance. --- this definition of the loophole must not cite a bulleting error as a source of exploitation of the exploited loophole."View my Commitment

When I exploit a loophole, in order for this loophole to be considered a valid reason for not incurring the penalty of the present Stickk commitment as defined in the present journal entry, I must state in digital or physical writing a satisfactory definition of the loophole that I have exploited in the considered instance. For this definition of the considered loophole to be considered valid, the following criteria must hold: --- I must end this definition with a period and do so before the due time of the incurring penalty defined in the present journal entry in the considered instance. --- this definition of the loophole must not cite a bulleting error as a source of exploitation of the exploited loophole. - Notes: - one of the next thing to be done to this commitment journal entry is to organize it by the way of annotation - you can also allow yourself to download videos from YouTube but with a 5 minute timer delay valid for 30 minutes after the timer goes off"View my Commitment

If this point, i.e. point 2.2, fails to hold true on a given morning, even if the said failure in accidental, the present Stickk commitment must be considered violated for that day. 3. Exceptions in this commitment are the following cases: --- sitting on the toilet seat inside the restroom of the studio I live in when the following criteria is met: ----- I can use my Samsung Galaxy S9 only after I activate the Paradia Toilet applock profile on it ----- if my Samsung Galaxy S9 is not in the Paradia Toilet applock profile, then I must make it that the first thing before using this device ----- during this activity of sitting, I am not touching anywhere, with or without any clothes in between, except the surface of a toilet seat on which a person is supposed to sit --- sitting on the wooden chair in the studio I live in when the following criteria is met: ----- purpose of this sitting activity is to wear socks ----- during this activity of sitting, I am not touching a desk with or without any clothes or bag in between ----- as soon as I sit, the next thing I should do is to wear socks and as soon as I have worn socks, I must get up. Notes applicable to the present journal entry: - notice period for revoking or designating new wakeup time for a given day is the office reaching time of that day minus 10 hours. (so e.g. if I am to reach office at 7:59 a.m., then I must put the journal entry designating the revoking or the updated office reaching time by 9:59 p.m. on the previous day) - For Saturdays, the default value for the rule is "revoked". In other words, I am not obligated to go to office. But this is the default value, and can be overridden by a different time. - Violation penalty per instance (i.e. per defaulted day): one usable 5000 South Korean Won currency note torn on that day before 9:59 p.m. If this action is not carried out, the quantity of the usable 5000 South Korean Won currency notes torn increases by one every six hours thereafter. - All times stated by me in this journal entry are in Korean time zone and in accordance with zero offset from the time shown by the casio watch that I am wearing as I write this journal entry. - I am not allowed to change the time shown on my casio watch for the purpose of avoiding the penalty associated with this stickk commitment - This commitment can be revoked or altered for a given day by writing a journal entry of the format: "(date) "revoked (in case of revoking) or new time (in case of updated reaching time)" e.g. "2018-10-25 revoked" or "2018-10-25 9:54 a.m." - note on loopholes: I assume there are loopholes in all my Stickk commitments. When I exploit a loophole, in order for this loophole to be considered a valid reason for not incurring the penalty of the present Stickk commitment as defined in the present journal entry, I must state in digital or physical writing a satisfactory definition of the loophole that I have exploited in the considered instance. For this definition of the considered loophole to be considered valid, the following criteria must hold: - I must end this definition with a period and do so before the due time of the incurring penalty defined in the present journal entry in the considered instance. - this definition of the loophole must not cite a bulleting error as a source of exploitation of the exploited loophole."View my Commitment

Anyway, I wrote my 125 on day 45, but not on day 46. It was an early day at work, and when I came home I fell asleep and woke up past midnight into today, so I wrote 250 words to compensate. That'll teach me to get up when the fucking alarm goes off. I need to establish a morning routine again."View my Commitment -

These include bank xxxxountxxx, marketable xxxurixx, commercial paper, Treasury bills and short-term government bonds with a maturity date of three months or less. Marketable securities and money market holdings are considered cash equivalents because they are liquid and not subject to material fluctuations in value. Marketable securities are xxxuixx financial instruments that can be quickly converted into cash at a reasonable price. The liquidity of marketable securities comes from the fact that the maturities tend to be less than one year, and that the rates at which they can be bought or sold have little effect on prices."View my Commitment -

AprilS84 Jul 13, 2019, 4:40 PM"Wishes Fulfilled: Mastering the Art of Manifesting by Dr. Wayne Dyer It took a bit of effort to get into his writing style at the beginning, but I kept going, and eventually was able to really enjoy what he had to say. I think there are some profound messages in this book, and it goes beyond just "believe it and you can achieve it." I find myself still feeling a bit skeptical of some of the miracles he describes, and the presence of orbs, but I want to believe, so I think that's a good first step. I will begin putting into practice some of his suggestions, including focusing on positive I am affirmations, citing those affirmations as I'm falling asleep to ingrain them in my subconscious, and holding fast to faith despite the contrary evidence of my senses. Dyer talks about God not being a force external to us, but within us, and how we are the creators of our own reality, so choose a reality full of love and possibility. 4/5 "View my Commitment -
