While this is an excellent technique, the thing that disappoints me about this installment of the “Modest Change” series is its contrast to what I’ve loved about the first two: they were stripped down to “Next Action” form. I mean, they involved multiple steps, but they were actionable. This one involves a whole change of behavior and is more of a lifehack or small project than what I was hoping for in a modest change. Great post and great idea, though. It could easily be twisted around to say “Is there a project that you can place some limits on in your life?” or something similarly practical. And I do plan to use the technique. I look forward to more of these Modest Changes! Keep up the good work.
