Did you create a New Years Resolution? Recently I have had several clients asking me to hold them accountable to their goals and objectives for the New Year. Consider that accountability is actually an inside job vs. and outside job - no one can force you to do anything. Its amazing to me how many times I have heard people say they didnt hold me accountable to it, when in reality, you are the only person that can old yourself accountable. If you arent following through, chances are you dont have a strong image in your mind of why you are doing what you resolved to do. What caused you to focus on this to begin with? How will it change your life? Your resolution should be primarily for you! The impact that it can have on those around you can be an instrument to hold you accountable to following through and provide motivation. Ill never forget when my good friend and colleague, Avis, stood up in a room of people that were complaining that they couldnt get all their business contacts in. She said, Every day when I went to put little Jennys shoes on they were too tight. I wanted to provide for my children. It wasnt an option to let them down. I knew my job could get her new shoes. I let that drive me. Whats driving you today?
