body double Central Time Zone

[ronosof]

Hi! I’m looking for someone to body double with for “difficult to start tasks.”

A body double is a person who is present IRL or through technology that is simply present while you are doing the hard thing.

Thanks!

There are many websites that offer this. Focus Mate is one and I think it’s 3 free (30 min. sessions per week) unlimited is $6.99-$9.99 a month.

i use the inflow app. They likely prefer paid up membership to keep the rooms safe, since we are showing ourselves working on camera to get the "mirror neuron" effect.

For this reason, coffee shops and libraries have also worked for me (free). And you could set your own timer (pomodoro / 25 min) (silent if in public 😋).

There are also videos on YouTube that are labeled body doubling when it comes to cleaning/chores/decluttering and sometimes are on fast speed so it kicks our brains into gear!

I’m interested, but I’m in Pacific time zone so it depends how early you want to start… I’ll try to direct message you.

I might be interested. I need some sort of accountability partner for that pesky, onerous chores.

I'm near Dallas.

Can you get my info for a PM?
