Stephen Covey said accountability breeds responsibility. Want to know how successful people hit their goal, time and time again? Well, they have a secret weapon called accountability. When it comes to creating success in your life, being accountable to someone else, it's a real motivator. Making a gold node can gently pressure you not to give up when things get hard. Just knowing that there's someone aware if you fail can be a huge motivator to push you forward.
Knowing that someone like a family member, a friend or even a life coach is supporting you. 100% of the way is also a powerful motivator. When you make your intentions known. You find that this fuels your desire to succeed. Doesn't it just make sense that if you know someone is going to ask you about your progress, you'll be motivated to give them a good report.
