The New Year is not that new anymore and the New Year resolutions are slowly but certainly fading out in minds of more and more people, day by day. If you’re not motivated enough or your will is just weak, there are more than enough mind “hacks” to keep yourself motivated or remind you of the goals you have set for yourself to achieve. One of them is a Seinfield Calendar which is based on a simple idea of not breaking the chain of day-by-day achievements of the goal you are supposed to be doing. Just read the article on Life Hacker to get the idea.
What I’m bringing you here is my own implementation of a Seinfeld Calendar in Google Spreadsheets.
Its aim is to be as simple as possible (so, as the whole Seinfeld’s hack). The usage is simple, too. Just write “d” (done) for the day you have done something for your goal or write “f” (failed) for the day you haven’t done anything (or you can leave the field empty, if you like it more that way). For every goal you want to track, create a new sheet (just duplicate the first one) and rename it according the goal.
Now, just keep it green!
