			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I picked up Twitter on a lark after seeing them on other sites.  Didn&#8217;t know what I would do with it but I have ended up finding it to being an accountability buddy.</p>
<p>I have wanted to break some good habits or momentum but then I think of writing in Twitter.  I write about it and it keeps me on task reminding me of what I want to do.  That is really the problem with me.  I will have a moment of clarity and strength then I will use my powers of procrastination to say, &#8220;I will do this tomorrow,&#8221; for avoidance.</p>
<p>Twitter keeps my goals in my mind.  I actually dreamt of using Twitter, that is how much it had excited my mind.  Out of reflex I have bought a soda during lunch and starting drinking before I remembered that I was &#8220;focusing&#8221; on my goals.  Sounds silly but I would just forget.</p>
<p>Even after this experiment is over, win or lose I will keep Twitter.  I have a &#8220;Monkey Mind&#8221; as they call it in Buddhism and being able to throw thoughts on to Twitter will let me organize them later.</p>
<p>Almost 24 hours and I am still excited.  I&#8217;m doing 90% better than I usually do with my plans.</p>
