How My Starbucks Mobile App Keeps Me Honest!

August 15, 2016

How My Starbucks Mobile App Keeps Me Honest! 

My new favorite thing is my Starbucks mobile app. No more standing in a lengthy  line for my tall iced coffee.  With a few swipes, I order in advance, and my chilled drink is waiting for me at the counter.

The obvious advantage of this is that it saves me time. But  another advantage is that it keeps me honest.

In addition to caffeinated drinks,  every Starbucks offers a tempting array of high calorie goodies.  In my pre-app days, the longer I waited in line, the more tempting the sweets in the adjacent glass case appeared. By the time I arrived at the cashier,   I had convinced myself that I MUST HAVE a lemon pound cake with my coffee!

This happened more often than I care to remember.

Now when I swoop in to pick up my coffee, I bypass temptation altogether.

The power of automation.

What could you automate in your life that would save you time and temptation?
