The Accountability Coach: Business Acceleration | Productivity

[[:encoded, "Today we are going to talk about 4 Steps to Increase the Power of Your Focus.\n\nLiving your life without practicing The Power of Focus, is like trying to hit the bull’s eye of a target you can’t see. You can spend hours launching arrows, only to miss the target entirely. You become exhausted and frustrated when your repeated efforts don’t show the results you are trying to achieve. This is what it feels like to operate without The Power of Focus.\n\nTo get to where you want to be, you must hold clear in your mind what you most want. Your subconscious mind is a powerful, goal-achieving machine, but it can’t lead you to your desired goal, if you don’t provide it with a specific target. If it doesn’t have a clear and specific target, it can’t get you there. As Stephen Covey would say, you must begin with the end in mind.\n\nThe Power of Focus is the practice of focusing on the ‘right’ tasks at hand, while minimizing distractions that take your focus away from your goals. It will improve time management, professional and personal performance, task efficiency, overall life balance, and provide your mind the information it needs to get you to the bull’s eye.\n\nWhen you focus on the ‘right’ activities that lead to ‘big’ goal achievement, you will succeed. A client of mine set a goal she was afraid to set because she had never been successful at achieving it before. We brainstormed a list of what we thought were the ‘right’ activities she needed to do in order to achieve this particular goal. She got focused on these activities, did them, and exceeded her goal! The same thing can happen for you when you focus on the ‘right’ activities. You’ll learn the 4 steps to help you increase your focus so you can have a higher probability of achieving your goals.\n\nTo help keep you focused, subscribe to The Accountability Coach Blog at www.AccountabilityCoachBlog.com."]]Unlock a blueprint to creating and having your ideal business and ideal life by scheduling your free consultation with me today!

[[:encoded, "Today we are going to talk about Your Beliefs – Are They Helping You or Hurting You? In addition, we will discuss 7 Success Beliefs That Will Help You Be Even More Successful.\n\nWherever you are in your life, you are exactly where you are because of your beliefs. When you speak to yourself what do you say - words of encouragement or words of criticism? If you speak words of encouragement, you may have some level of confidence and be moderately successful at achieving your goals. However, if you speak words of self-criticism, you may find that you are unsure and not as effective at achieving your goals as you would like to be. You may not realize it, but your self-talk is creating your belief system. That belief system is either helping you achieve more or keeping you bound where you are. To get to where you want to go and be who you want to be, you must understand that your beliefs are the powerhouse of creation. Who you are, as well as who you will become, is created by your beliefs.\n \nWhen you have a high level of belief in yourself, it leaves no room for doubt, allowing you to develop a keen awareness that you are made of infinite potential and can achieve anything you believe you can. \n\nThe reality is this, whatever you believe is what you have created and will create in your life. A healthy belief system gives you the confidence to achieve any goal you set for yourself, \n\nPeople who have a high level of self-belief - know anything is possible.\nPeople who don't have a high level of self-belief - hope some things will be possible.\n\n “If you believe you can, and believe it strongly enough, you’ll be amazed at what you can do.” –Nido Qubein\n\nTo accomplish your goals, you must believe - and your belief comes from your conviction and desire. We will talk about how to strengthen your conviction and desire to a new level. \n\nChanging your circumstances and creating the life you really want starts with creating a high level of belief that allows you to feel that you can achieve anything you set your mind upon. With conviction and desire, you will be unstoppable because you will believe that anything is possible. As a result, you will create the life you have always dreamed about having.\n\nSuccess beliefs help you realize that you can do anything and any obstacles you face are only imaginary blocks created by your limiting beliefs. We will talk about 7 success beliefs that will help you be even more successful. \n\nThere is creatiUnlock a blueprint to creating and having your ideal business and ideal life by scheduling your free consultation with me today!

[[:encoded, "Today we are going to talk about The Pros and Cons of Change.\n\nMy motto is Excuses Don’t Count unless you’re dead. Now I know this sounds harsh but excuses are just that – excuses. They don’t serve anyone and it doesn’t matter what your excuses are. You either did or didn’t do something – just that plain and simple. In the July 2008 issue of Prevention Magazine, there was a great short article under Who We Admire. There are five ladies in a photo who all have t-shirts on with a circle and a line crossing through the word Excuses – basically meaning No Excuses. I love it! The article is about five ladies who just celebrated their 30th year of walking together. They walk every single day at 6:30am, rain or shine, and have logged an estimated 25,000 miles. What an inspirational story and we should admire these five ladies. No Excuses! They chose to change their life the way it was and begin walking and they are still going strong. They choose to do it every day, not matter what – no excuses. I love it!\n\nWe will talk about: \n- What is change? \n- Can People Change?\n- The Pros and Cons of Change\n\nDon’t be afraid to change just because you don’t know how the change will affect things. I heard it said, if you continually do things the same way you will always get what you have gotten. Explore what might be. Ask yourself, what’s the worst thing that can happen? In most cases, it will be something desired and something good. You may not do it perfect the first time, but you will get better each time you do it. Try changing something that you have been putting off and experience the results for yourself.

However, at one point in his career, he was ready to leave the business world; not because he wasn't financially successful but because he was overweight, unhealthy & unhappy. Beginning in 2004, he went through an inspiring journey losing 140 pounds of excess weight and now competes in triathlons. In other words he went from 313 pounds to 173 pounds. After mentoring 12 friends to lose a combined 321 pounds of excess weight in less than a year, he wrote the book The Fitness Race, which was published in April 2008. The Fitness Race will inspire those who struggle with their weight and give them a plan and path to get as light and fit as they choose. \n\nMark Little will share a brief history as to what actually helped him decide that being 313 pounds was no longer acceptable and his decision to do something about getting lighter and fitter. \n\nHe will also talk about the importance of accountability coaching as it applies to him in his life and in The Fitness Race.\n\nIn addition, Mark will discuss the choices he made in relationship to his eating habits. If I recall correctly, at one point Mark ate a lot at McDonalds and still lost weight. This isn’t a typical story you would hear from most people.\n\nYou can review Mark’s story and the story of others he has mentored at www.TheFitnessRace.com. \n\nYou will enjoy this interview with such an amazing person who has enjoyed and still enjoys both professional and personal success."]]Unlock a blueprint to creating and having your ideal business and ideal life by scheduling your free consultation with me today!

[[:encoded, "Today we are talking about Effective Time Management and Calendaring so you can focus on the ‘right’ activities and have increased success.\n\nOne of the success principles of any successful person is effectively calendaring and time management. In order to create your ideal life, you must learn to schedule EVERYTHING and be extremely effective at time management. \n\nWhat are the highest payoff activities you can do to achieve your goals in the timeframe you have set? You may want to make sure you spend more of your time on these activities versus other lower payoff activities. Work on those activities that produce the results you want and not the ones that might be easier to do or more fun or don’t cause you to go outside your comfort zone. Prioritization is very important in effectively managing your time.\n\nStart making a list of activities you would like to put on your calendar for the next week or few weeks. Put them on your calendar and then honor thy calendar. What do you want to accomplish today, tomorrow, next week, this quarter, and this year? \n\nI can’t stress enough the importance of calendaring and then honoring your calendar. You will find yourself more in control of your life and you will be even more efficient. You becoming very effective at time management will have a positive impact on your life – personally and professionally. You might be amazed at how much more productive you will be when you apply effective time management in your life. This is an important and key success factor and you must be skilled at maximizing your time. Focus on the results you want today, next week, next month, this year, and with every conversation and activity you do. Create your reality!

The Wheel of Life I use, because not all are the same, has 8 areas that we regularly focus on. One of those areas is health and fitness. Most of the people I work with and many of the people I talk to, at one point in life have tried to lose weight or thought about losing a few pounds so they could be fitter and healthier and ultimately feel better and maybe even live longer. If you have tried to lose weight or thought about it, you are certainly in the majority. If you would like to improve your health and fitness and maybe even lose a few pounds in the process – this special interview we are doing today is for you.\n\nWe are honored today to have an expert with us to talk about health and fitness. Denis Collier is a Registered Dietitian, a Certified Exercise Physiologist and has a Masters degree in Kinesiology. The company he founded specializes in helping individuals reach their most valuable goals by integrating nutrition with a physically active lifestyle. \n\nWe are talking about how many people say they have tried repeatedly to lose weight and had little to no success. Some have probably thought about losing weight but maybe don’t have a plan or know the best way to approach being healthier and fitter. \n\nDenis shares a 5 step approach, a system of “arguing with yourself” to rid yourself of negative beliefs and become more optimistic about doing the things you need to do to lose weight and improve your health, fitness and quality of life in general. He calls it the “A.E.I.O.U. Technique”. \n\nListen and learn!
