		<description>Thank you for sharing this.  I learnt this technique from Marshall and also shared in my peer mentor sessions.
I have a junior who is helping me with getting rid of my habit of smoking and sends me a Text every morning &#039; How many yesterday&#039;.  Having been a chain smoker I have found it difficult to get rid of this habit and I find this technique very useful.
My accountability partner has sent me just one text feedback in past 3 months and that is - &#039; be careful on weekends as you tend to smoke more then&#039;.  He shared with me once that he inputs the number every single day in an excel sheet and shall send me a graph when he notices a significant pattern.
Wonderful idea this.  A colleague of mine has already found a partner who agreed to ask her 5 questions.  I think the &#039;Baker&#039;s dozen&#039; as described by Marshall takes time to discover and requires patience as it is not a one size fits all questionnaire and there is indeed accountability required mutually.

Thanks again.
