The new year is a great time to refocus and plan. Often we set new year’s resolutions for all areas of our life.
Do you have some big dreams and goals for 2022?
Like most, achieving those new year’s resolutions can be challenging and often fall away mid-month.
The key is having a clear plan of focus AND an accountability system.
What is accountability? Accountability is when you are willing to answer for the outcomes resulting from your choices, behaviors, and actions. You know what you want and how to get there; you lose focus and drive.
You’re not alone.
Being committed to change and taking the necessary action is not easy when starting something new.
The three things that happen to many are:
– allowing your excuses to outweigh your desires
– lose motivation and excitement over time
– decide giving up is an easier way than finding a way to plow through
Whether scaling your business, building better relationships, losing weight, or a career change, they all require goals with a clear vision, focused strategy, and most importantly, accountability!
Having someone track your results, offer daily inspiration, celebrate your wins, and keep you focused on your vision is the motivation that will allow you to stay committed and accomplish your goal!
Here are a few ways to get the accountability you need to leap into the next version with confidence and clarity in all areas of your life.
- Stop trying to do the same thing over and over again, expecting different results. Write out what you are doing to accomplish the goal and take inventory to see if it’s working or how you could adjust your action plan.
- When you get derailed, one of the biggest challenges with any goal, find your way back by saying up until now I would have failed, BUT today I press on.
- Make a committee with a friend or family member (or a coach) to check daily. Share your intentions and desires each day with someone who can allow you to see your progress and keep you focused on your vision.
Personal accountability will eliminate the time and effort you spend on distracting activities and other unproductive behavior while keeping you jazzed and excited to keep working towards your goals.
Ready to be held accountable and crush those goals!? I’m happy to help.
Cheers to a Happy New Year!
