It’s Motivation Monday and this is episode 9 of the Driven Motivation podcast! Ooo yeah!

In the previous episodes I talk about how your choices matter, and why you need to stop making excuses for yourself and instead start taking action.

This is the last episode of Motivation Monday for this week, and to tie everything together I made it about accountability.

Without accountability you won't be able to stay focused long enough to accomplish your final goals.

Steps on Staying Accountable

1. Creating a Clear and Defined Goal

You can't just put down "I want to lose weight," or "I want to make more money."

You have to put numbers along with a due date...

For instance, you can put;

  • I want to lose 30 lbs by May 1st, or
  • I want to make $50,000 by October

It is vital to put a number on your goal along with a due date because it will make the goal more real. It's not just a wish anymore... it's an actual defined, and attainable goal.

2. Track Your Progress

Grab a journal, or create a chart and start tracking your progress! Tracking will allow you to see how well (or not well) you are doing and can help revitalize your energy because you will see the progress you are making.

Even if you are not making the progress you want, you can come up with ways to improve your game! Step up!

3. Accountability Partners

I find that having accountability partners or group is vital to your success. You can also download the coach.me app (which I will put under the resources in this post) that will help keep your accountable by reminding you that you need to do something.

4. Review and Reflect

It is vital to your success that you reflect on what you are doing, and take notice of what is and what isn't working.

The best thing you can do for yourself is to make sure that you are on the right track to success.
