Gamification is a powerful concept that has the potential to revolutionize our productive lives. The concept seems so obvious but like anything else, it’s hard to identify and conceptualize until it has a name.
About a week ago, my friend Collin and I decided to gamify losing 30 pounds (which might be too much…but neither of us were going to say it). So we wrote an agreement. The first to lose 30 pounds will receive $100 from the other party and that other party will have to kiss the ground in front of (within 1.5 feet) the winning party <- That was my addition…pure humiliation :). We had an initial weigh-in and are tracking progress on a google docs spreadsheet that I threw together. Check it out: google docs spreadsheet
I’ll keep you updated. May the best man win!
