Setting a goal is great
Making a plan is also great
but who makes sure it gets done?
Who will keep you accountable?
This is possibly the trickiest challenge.
Left to my own devices
the entropy of the world takes over
I exercise less
I sleep a little more
I watch more TV
and I still get by.
"Getting by" is not what I want
My passion lives in Playing Big
and to Play Big I must be accountable
to a partner
to a group
to a mentor
to myself
The more accountability I have, the more likely I am to either complete the goal, or to admit that it is something I really don't want to do, and move on.
This is why sharing your goal is so important
It is the first step towards accountability.
This daily journal came from a promise. Right before Memorial Day 2009, I met with my business coach Joe Stumpf. I shared with him my total burn out in my business of 20 years. Frustrated by what my life had become, I promised to get up at 5:00 AM every day, meditate and journal and focus on bringing passion back into every aspect of my life, my work, my family and my personal growth. Instead of going to work every day and having a PITY PARTY, I have decided to have a PASSION PARTY.
