U is for Ultimatum
Give yourself an ultimatum (don’t accept them from anyone else!). Use that ultimatum to challenge yourself to do the best you can as we get close to finishing out A to Z! We have one more week. Set your ultimatum to help yourself achieve your goals!
As we end the week, I’m specifically talking to those of you (myself included) who haven’t quite made our goals yet. Give yourself an ultimatum to meet those goals.
Meet that goal OR ____ [fill in the blank]. What happens? Give yourself some consequences. Or better yet, give yourself a reward!
My Ultimatum:
If I don’t finish my goal, I don’t get to go on a shopping spree at a book store!
Then work toward it. Figure out what’s motivating to you and set your mind to it! With just 5 posts left, we can do it! Don’t give up now.

Ultimatums haven't worked for me but I know they do for many

Priorities and ultimatums... the team is cracking the whip this year with reaching goals and building up self-esteem, huh? ❤
My main character gets a tiny bit philosophical in the story today 😜

A good post for letter "U". Finishing this years challenge is important to me.
I have to prove to myself I CAN and WILL complete the course as this upheavel in our lives have played havoc with my writing mobility.
Have a good weekend, stay safe and healthy.

I gave up on the idea of finishing the book within the month some time ago but it has got me motivated to continue on after April and the posts, which I have succeeded in keeping up - have focussed my thinking on a number of aspects of the plot. including this:-

Erm... ultimatums don't work for me. I anyway like to make a plan and stick to it and have a contingency plan as a backup.

I completely understand the reward of shopping in a bookshop. At least they are ore open now in England. https://suestrifles.wordpress.com/2021/04/24/understanding-atozchallenge/
If there ever was an ultimatum on Dominaria, it definitely was Urza's doing.

Nobody likes an ultimatum ... or at least I don't. I am having a hard time understanding truths. Maybe someone can help me with that?
Have a great day!

Ultimatums work for some and not for others (myself included). We are all unique, and that's the direction I went with today's post:

It's just 5 more and hope I complete it....
I prefer rewards over consequences.
My "finishing" game is usually strong.

I am in U, when I am managing so many other things besides the lovely AtoZ challenge.. so I forgive myself. I will reserve the ultimatum for some other time.

I've never tried giving myself an ultimatum. I'm not sure it would work, because I'm like I'll keep at it till I get it right. :) Happy A2Zing!

YES!!yes my ultimatum is to publish my book by JULY last week!!
I like to promise myself treats when I finish a project I'm not keen on doing. Having something fun to look forward to is a great prod.
I don't like ultimatums. Period.
