UNIT 08 - READING 2 The Ulysses Contract
No matter how hard Jason tried, he couldn't stop playing computer games late at night. As a result, his grades dropped greatly. Finally, he made a deal with himself. If he played a single game after 11 p.m., he would give away his computer. He couldn't imagine living without it, so he eventually stopped playing games late at night. Jason used something called a "Ulysses contract." It's a decision people freely make to restrict themselves in the future. Its name comes from the hero of the Greek poem, Odyssey. Ulysses was the captain of a ship that had to sail past dangerous creatures called Sirens. The Sirens sang beautiful songs causing sailors to crash their ships. Ulysses made everyone else fill their ears with wax, but he wanted to hear the songs himself. So he tied himself to the ship's mast until they had passed the Sirens. Both Ulysses and Jason bound themselves to avoid doing something foolish later. The effectiveness of the Ulysses contract was proven in an experiment involving a health reward program. Members of this program received a cash-back bonus for purchasing healthy food. Then members were challenged to increase the amount of healthy products they purchased the next month. If they failed, they would have to give up their bonuses. This challenge was refused by most members. However, some members who wanted to improve their diets but feared they lacked the willpower to do so accepted it. In the end, members who took the challenge increased healthy purchases more than the other members. A company called StickK also makes use of Ulysses contracts. After setting a goal, some StickK users give money to the company. If they meet their goal, they get it back. If they don't, the money is given to a recipient that they designated earlier, such as their friend or charity. Their success rate is twice that of StickK users who choose not to commit any money. If you have a goal you can't seem to reach, consider making a Ulysses contract. It may give you the extra motivation you need.
