Got a bad habit or two you want to break? Blogger Buster Benson has a simple solution: just make your friends charge you $1 for every time they catch you engaging in your bad habits.
This idea isn't really anything new, of course. We've all heard of using a "swear jar" or something similar to curb certain behavior, but Buster's solution is self-induced. He had four habits he wanted to break (excessive complaining, gossiping, junk food, and alcohol), so he established the $1 rule with all of his friends so they'd keep him accountable. If any of them catch him partaking in any of those habits, they call him out and get a dollar in return. Everyone wins, and you'll probably break that habit pretty quickly.
Of course, if you're a little short on cash, we've shared lots of other ways to break those bad habits, too—from using a webcam to programming your day and a ton of other things. Hit the link to read more.
