I have an n8n script that puts my pledges back to 5$ automatically.  
It helped because I derail often, and I was neither happy calling off, nor paying 90$.  
Why not putting the max pledge to 5$ right away?  
Well, I sometimes end up with goals that I derail on repeat for weeks.  
It helps to have exponential pledges to catch these and either archive the goals or pick myself up 🙂
