Day 2 – Second Day… So Far

Focus, Mate!

Now that i sound like a Brit or an Australasian demanding that you focus, it’s actually the name of a program that is helping me focus, Focusmate.

The funny thing about finding this site is that there’s this Facebook Ad where a guy invented a similar program. But it was a ton of money. At the time of this writing, Focusmate is only ten bucks a month. It works as so.

You pick a time—half hour, hour—and then someone gets matched up with you. They can see your face and you can see theirs. It’s like Facetime but no one talks. But, man oh man, does having an accountability partner work! In the last hour, i’ve wanted to use the restroom or goof off. Instead, i edited over 3,500 words and got to writing this here article. Pretty sweet, huh? I woulda gotten up 10 outta 10 times before this. This made me stay in my chair.

(Hold on one second as the timer is about to go off and me and my partner check-in with each other. Bee are be.)

SPOILER ALERT: I never came back.
