A little backstory: It was January. Everyone around me was making New Year s resolutions. And, like always, I knew I would start something with full excitement and then leave it halfway without even realising it.
But this time, I thought of trying a small experiment.
I created a WhatsApp group with six friends. We each set a few goals for the month and posted what we had done every day. The rule was simple: miss once and receive a warning; miss twice and you were removed from the group until the next month started.
Not every day was perfect, but on difficult days, we wrote a short reflection to stay in the loop instead of quitting completely.
