Those of you who've been on reddit for a while might've an idea about this.
But for the others:

This is a thread where you may declare what school/office work or hobby/activity you're about to do so that you could feel accountable about it and actually complete it without procrastinating.
You can use this on a daily/weekly/monthly or any other basis that you're comfortable with.
Once you're done with the work, you can proudly declare about your achievement here, and also how you're going to reward yourself.
Woohoo!

If you don't get the work done completely, it's fine because 1>0. Or you may predefine the punishment you'll have to face in such a case.
But if you don't even start, then, well, feel bad about yourself and cry yourself to sleep.

If you've enough free time, you can be the one enquiring others about their progress or work.

Let the accountability begin!

This is a small attempt at making everyone's SP visit a bit more productive, what do you think?
Got any work you're supposed to be doing?

I see what is going on here. Besides, doing something is impossible for me. I am a lazy motherfucker. I call heresy.

Nice stuff. (For a moment there I thought my thread was already in existence lol)
Btw Arch, do you keep any targets when working on that project? You could post about that here so we get an idea about how much you got done.

So, how'd it go? Your answer should answer your previous question.

Start small, maybe make your bed or something first. Then move on to the herculean tasks.
Remember kids, the journey of a thousand miles begins by getting off your ass first.

So here's what I'm going to be doing today:

Tasks: Complete my college assignments by finishing
1 Question of 2nd Language
2 Questions of 1st Language
2 Questions of Advanced Accounts

Reward: 2 hours of animating!

Conditions: No entertainment activities until tasks are complete.

Time to get shit done.

Soooo 6.25 seconds per day which, if you're working at 24fps comes down to 150 frames per day. Good luck.

Did you do it?

So my day ends right here, got done with 3 questions out of 5, which is pretty good because I usually stop after 1. Kewl.

Some scenes are fine, some are not. It all depends on how hardcore I want to get, but unfortunately with the time constraint I can't go but so hard :(
