Accountability: The Key to Achieving More in Business and Life
P.S. Procrastination and laziness are your enemies, not friends
Think of a time when someone told you, “I’m going to do that, don’t worry!”
“That” could be a favor, a future goal, or a promise to replace the last beer in your fridge (because they drank it without asking).
Whatever that is, how does it make you feel when they don’t follow through?
Take a moment to reflect on that.
Now, let’s flip the script for a moment.
Think of a time when you were the person that expressed a desire to do something.
“I’m going to start my own business!”
“I’m going to lose weight and get fit!”
“I’m going to travel around the world!”
“I’m going to wake up early and meditate in the morning!”
“I’m going to take you out for dinner, I promise!”
How did you feel when you didn’t follow through?
Whenever we express our inner desires to ourselves or those close to us𑁋and we don’t follow through𑁋it’s common to experience feelings of disappointment, embarrassment, and shame.
