You know the story, you set a goal, get going firing on all cylinders make great progress during the first week then ...
BAM!
Motivation = GONE!
You struggle to get out of bed or have an argument with yourself about going to the gym or driving straight to work and instantly regret it once you sit at your desk.
Unless you are going to hire a personal coach to drag you out of bed and sit in the car with you making sure your heading in the right direction, pure will power sometimes just isn't enough to keep us on track. Which is why getting yourself an accountibilly-buddy can be the best decision you make!
Here are 5 reasons how they can help you reach your goals ...
Create a habit of checking in - Having someone to 'answer to' can sometimes be all that's needed to give us that little extra nudge, knowing we will need to be telling them either good news or bad at the end of the week, I know which I'd rather be bragging about!
It will be easier to cut the excuses - This builds on the above, knowing your accountibilly-buddy is there will help you to ignore those excuses that would usually lead you astray. Having to tell your buddy that you wanted to stay in bed an extra half hour because your goal isn't important will make you feel a little silly!
You will have someone to bounce with - Well not exactly, but you will be able to bounce idea's off each other and get help when you need it. Not feeling motivated or finding it a little difficult to do that 'thing' today, ask your buddy for some advice, that's what they are there for after all
They will make sure your goals stay #1 priority - Your accountabilly-buddy wants to see you succeed so make sure to pick someone who will help get you back on the right path if they can see you slipping down the slope. When you feel distracted or lost you will have the added comfort of knowing there is someone there to bring you back on track.
They are your cheerleader, your soccer Mum, your motivator - There will be days when your motivation and mental strength will be tested and the excitement you once felt starts to wither. It’s on these days that your buddy will be your biggest cheerleader by being the one to say ‘Yes you Can’ on the days when you don’t feel like you can continue. They can remind you of what you have accomplished and help keep your goals in sight as you work to make them become a reality.
