How to write/call my friends weekly by wooleyduck

"I've been doing this for 5 weeks now, often talking to my friends more than once a week."

How I did it: I found that the best way to do this is to just keep track of when I call or message or whatever. That way I can tell if it's been a while or not. Calling on specific days didn't work and I feel like that would defeat the point anyway. I don't have a good sense of time at all and weeks can go by without me realizing it so keeping track helped immensely. I have some software called MyLife Organized (I think that's the name) which is free and I've been doing much better about a lot of stuff by using it to keep track of goals and make to do lists.

Lessons & tips: Do it! It's important! Your friends won't know how awesome you think they are if you never bother to contact them.

    I’ve been much better about this lately. I still feel like I don’t reach out as often as I should even though I think of everybody all the time but I hope I’m making progress.

    I haven’t been doing this and I feel like crap because of it. I hate neglecting my friends and family. I just get so caught up in my own head whenever things get the slightest bit tough or hectic and I can’t seem to deal with important things like communication.

    This is an extremely important goal to me and I need to treat it as such.
