Hi all, This will be my second month participating in the Ultimate Accountability Challenge. I am just one day away from completing the October Ultimate Accountability Challenge. One thing that really helped me during the challenge was that I tied an incentive to completing the challenge. Just completing the challenge is a reward in itself, but having an incentive tied to it too, really helped me. If I complete the challenge, my husband is buying me a new pair of nice running shoes.

Below you will find a couple of suggestions..

1. If you eat lunch/dinner out a lot, how about eating at home or packing a lunch and putting the money you saved in a jar, at the end of the challenge, you could use that money to purchase your incentive. If you don't complete the challenge, you would save the money for the next challenge, etc.

2. Make an agreement with someone in your life that they will do something for you if you complete the challenge.. (I.e., buy you lunch, buy you something you really want, cook you breakfast every Sunday, etc.) Make it something that you wouldn't normally getfor yourself.

3. Think of something that you wouldn't normally do and promise yourself that you will do it, if you complete the challenge. (i.e., leave the kids with someone and spend several hours just relaxing, etc.)

Good luck everyone!
