This thread is for anyone working on personal projects to share their progress, and hold themselves somewhat accountable to a group of peers.
Post your project, your progress from last week, and what you hope to accomplish this week.
If you want to be pinged with a reminder asking about your project, let me know, and I'll harass you each week until you cancel the service

Notes -
Care to elaborate? I'd love to hear more about this process.
I'm afraid I can't say much that would be of use to a third party. I don't really know how I became more disciplined, I just know that I did.
But I think a big component was setting myself long-term goals which I'd publicly pre-committed to by setting them for myself as part of a group. During Covid I got into running, and a couple I know suggested that the three of us sign up for a marathon. I decided to do it. I think the fact that it was a group activity made a big difference: if I'd just privately signed up to do it myself I wouldn't have lost face if I'd decided to back out after a few weeks of training.
