Create a Challenge for Yourself

Another way to bring out your competitive spirit and become more productive is by creating challenges for yourself. This isn’t making a bet with anyone else.

Rather, it’s just pushing yourself to the limit to see how much you can accomplish.

You can do this on small daily tasks or large tasks.

Example: Let’s suppose you’re writing a book. You might set a timer for 30 minutes and see how many words you type in that time. Then reset the timer and try to beat your previous number of words.

You can also set up mid and long term challenges.

Example: You might record how many words you create on a weekly basis, and then try to always beat your previous record.

Or if you’ve already previously completed a task (such as writing a book), you might try to complete the task even faster the second time.

Tip: Do you know someone else who has a similar to-do list or goals? If so, you could race against each other to complete your tasks.

For example, you could race to see who completes a 100-page book first.

If it’s a business-oriented goal, then search business and marketing forums (like the WarriorForum.com) for people who are willing to join your challenges. Ideally, you should all create public blogs that you update on a daily basis.
