The power to recommit


Scott Schwab

Recently I have been on the road again. Sometimes I feel that I should be a truck driver. Currently I am in NC and just enjoying the relentless heat and humidity. Great area and very nice people. Thank goodness there is a Gold's Gym here in town. However, upon getting here, my compadres wanted to start a new routine. It required each of us to commit to each other a time. The place was set with our hotel. We have kept each other accountable to the goal that each of us have set. Having someone there has helped a lot as motivation has dwindled at times. It comes down to the accountability that we set. You have to set a few things in motion for success.

#1 Have a person to hold you accountable

#2 Make goals that hold you accountable

#3 Set a desired goal and follow up daily

#4 Find reasons to succeed rather then fail

#5 Make visible reminders to motivate

Accountability is where a commitment rises and falls. To recommit, you must look at the past and the future and make the adjutments that will bring you success. All of us have failed or fallen short of a goal, but the main thing is to step up and take the challenge on again. Success cannot happen unless you have seen or tasted failure.
