I’m in middle of a 3 week vacation now in northeast and visiting one of my best friends in Philadelphia.
So things are good! 🙂
Anyway, Amanda Pucket asked me last week
How to be accountable but not beat yourself up if you have a bad day?
Accountability is important but being too hard on yourself is also critical or else you lose motivation
—– Lesson of the Day —–
How to Hold Yourself Accountable Without Being Too Hard On Yourself
Accountability plays a big role in your success because it creates consistency and focus.
In fact, Accountability is the 7th and most important component of The Consistency System
But we can often get too hard on ourselves.
Here are a few helpful tips
1 ) Get an Accountability Partner
Find someone else to hold you accountable because we are our biggest enemy and critic.
It’s too easy for us to be too critical and hard on ourselves and this just makes us feel worse.
We lose our self esteem and confidence.
A good accountability partner will be tough on you but also give you the grace and mentally motivate and support you.
That’s much harder to do when the only accountability partner is ourselves.
2 ) Take a Daily EQ Quiz
I talked about this in my best selling book, The Consistency Pill and encourage you to take a daily EQ Quiz.
Do this every night before you go to bed, and you’ll be pleasantly surprised at how you’ll be able to stay more emotionally consistent.
I want you to recap your day and list these things:
What are three wins you had today?
Just writing this down will help you because it’ll make you feel better.
We tend to be our biggest critics and beat ourselves down and forget the things we accomplish.
What are three areas you need to get better in?
This alerts you to things you need to improve on.
You can dive deeper into this in The Consistency Pill
This video below shares a good routine that leaders do
Accountability is important but make sure you’re aware of your “Wins” and how you’re growing each day
