Get Better Abs by Creating an Unbroken 30 Day Chain

by Katrina Eden

Did you indulge over Easter? A little chocolate, a break from the gym? And why not! Easter only comes around once a year.

But weekends come around pretty often. So do social events or work lunches or days when you’re too busy to stick to your Flat Stomach plan.

If you find it all too easy to sway from the path you’ve set yourself, or if you feel like you’re constantly ‘re-committing’ to eating well, working out and thinking positively, then you might want to consider this great technique I came across recently.

This technique is so powerful, not only will it help you succeed with your Better Abs plan, it can enhance your work productivity, your organization at home and even your learning ability!

Of course you still have to put some work in.

So what am I talking about?

Well, it’s all about creating a chain that is strong enough to keep you moving forward without losing focus. It’s called the Jerry Seinfeld productivity chain, and it’s really quite simple. All you need is a big calendar and a red marker.

The idea harks from the premise that it’s not the big ‘one-off’ efforts that bring about success – not unless they are backed up with some solid and consistent action. Using your calendar and red marker, you can start (today) to build a chain that you won’t want to break. Every day you look after your health, whether it’s through correct nutrition, appropriate activity, or just taking time out for rest and recovery, make a big red ‘X” on your calendar.

As you see the ‘X’ chain grow, you’ll become motivated to keep marking out that next day.

No matter how busy you are, don’t break the chain - you must do something every day. This is a great tool because it helps you to realise it’s not about doing everything every day – but as long as you do something, no matter how small, you’re ensuring that you don’t have to keep going back to square one.

You can read the full instructions from the man himself here, and if you want to create your own online version, click here to download a free Jerry Seinfeld productivity calendar.

Start your chain today!
