The goal is to have a stack of numbers with the highest number on top. Heres the easiest way to print, cut, and collate these pages:
1. First, gure out how many total days you want your countdown to be. For instance, if you have 50 pounds to lose and hope to lose at the rate
of 1.5 pounds per week, divide 50 by 1.5, which gives you just over 33 weeks. Multiply this by 7 to get the total number of days (231). To get the
number of sheets you need to print, divide 231 by 4. You would need 57.75 (or 58) sheets, not counting this one, so youd print pages 1-59.
2. Print your pages, determining in what order your printer prints documents. Mine prints the last page rst so that when its done, the 1-2-3-4
page will be on top. (It is possible to reverse the order in the settings or properties in the print dialog box that comes up when you hit the Print
command.) Make sure it is set to print in landscape mode (wide), not portrait mode (tall). Then follow the appropriate set of directions below.
If your printer prints last page to rst:
3. Use a paper cutter or an X-acto knife and ruler to cut 3-4 sheets at a time into quarters and separate the quarters into 4 different piles. Cut your
next 3-4 sheets and put those quarters under the existing piles, making sure that each pile goes up by 4s. (In other words, the rst pile will have 1,
5, 9, 13, 17, 21, etc. and the next pile will have 2, 6, 10, 14, 18, 22, etc.)
4. You should have 4 piles of paper, with the top numbers being 1, 2, 3, and 4. Start collating to a nal stack, making a face-up pile with the 1 rst,
working upwards, so that when youre done, your biggest number will be on top. Skip to step 5.
If your printer prints rst page to last:
3. Use a paper cutter or an X-acto knife and ruler to cut 3-4 sheets at a time into quarters and separate the quarters into 4 different piles. Cut your
next 3-4 sheets and put those quarters under the existing piles, making sure that each pile goes down by 4s. (In other words, if your total countdown is 100, the rst pile will have 100, 96, 92, 88, 84, 80, etc. and the next pile will have 99, 95, 91, 87, 83, 79, etc.)
4. You should have 4 piles of paper, with the top numbers being the last 4 numbers of your overall countdown. (For instance, if your countdown
was 100, the piles will be 97, 98, 99, and 100). Start collating to a nal stack, making a face-down pile with the 100 rst, working downwards, so
that when youre done and you turn the stack over, the 100 will be on top.
5. Bind your countdown pile any way that you are able. Some of the options are:
a. Go to your local ofce supply store and ask them to make a notepad out of your stack of numbers.
b. Punch a hole in each corner and put a string through.
c. Staple or paper clip as many as possible together in several groups.
d. Clamp them in a clipboard.
e. Do whatever works for you! Now each morning, tear one off the stack and check off the 4 daily goals as you accomplish them.
And remember you are one day closer to your goal!
