We hold all sorts of institutions and businesses to a high standard. They better deliver this when they say they will or else I’ll….fill in the blank. We expect them to do what they say they are going to do. Deliver the product or perform the service like they advertise or claim.
But we usually don’t hold ourselves to the same standard. We tell ourselves we’re going to do something and then…don’t. And then don’t hold ourselves accountable. We just sorta forget we ever said we’d do it.
It’s time to start holding yourself accountable to yourself. It’s time for you to start delivering on what you said you were going to do. And if you don’t, you find a way to make it right. To fix it. Forgetting about it isn’t fixing it.
Depriving ourselves of a bad habit we engage in too often…that could be a way of holding ourselves accountable. Athletes and people who are physically active will often do this. No ice cream for me tonight. No cream in my coffee tomorrow morning because I didn’t do the reps I said I would. You get the idea.
This will also force you to be more mindful about what goals you set for yourself. Don’t set anything that’s too unattainable. You’re just setting yourself up to not accomplish it. Or to not even begin once you realize how big a goal it is.
But start holding yourself accountable.
