Accountability is more than just a friend that calls you up occasionally to make sure you’re sticking to your weight loss goals. It’s also more than the occasional roundtable discussion with business colleagues checking in on how everyone in the group is doing in terms of hitting their quarterly financial goals. True, meaningful accountability serves to prop you up when you feel discouraged, and also propels you to heights you never thought possible.  While there are many different types of accountability, both business and personal, these 4 types of accountability are ones you need to place in your life immediately.Ultimately, accountability is never just a one-time thing that applies to just a single area of our life. To find success, you need to be open to being challenged in all areas of your life. We can’t usually see our own blind spots – it takes trusted people in our lives to point them out to us and to provide us the support we need to work through those weak points intentionally.Want more proven business success tips and resources?  Of course you do… Subscribe to my blog by going to www.acountabilitycoach.com/blog. Get your daily Accountability Minute shot of a single, simple, doable idea, so you can start your day off on the "right foot".

There comes a time when you don’t feel like working anymore. It happens to everyone, you are certainly not an exception. Rather, it would be surprising if you haven’t felt that way about a task or project till now. As an entrepreneur, you would have worked hard to get your business to a level where it is successful and stable. Yet, procrastination can tempt you at any time. Particularly if it is a task you don’t like doing, there is a bigger chance you would be enticed towards procrastination.  The general perception among businesspeople is that procrastination is bad. They expect their employees to be productive throughout, not wasting even a single minute while they are at work. However, there is a limit to how much work a person can do at once without getting bored or tired. If they have reached the tipping point, continuing to work beyond that time would actually lead to a drop in quality of performance and prove to be counterproductive. The million-dollar question is whether procrastination is always bad. So, how do you avoid falling in the trap? Let’s talk about 5 practical tips which will help you pass up procrastination, or at least procrastinate on less important activities.  Don't let procrastination hold you back any longer.

It can be challenging to imagine that entrepreneurship comes with a psychological price considering how much the media glamorizes it. Most people only see the lavish and exciting lifestyles of high-profile entrepreneurs. That is why it is important to pay attention to the psychological price that entrepreneurs pay and work to avoid it.But this makes up a small percentage of the overall business owner population. Most entrepreneurs don't own private jets, and they don't party with well-known celebrities or live extravagantly. However, this doesn't mean that their life is all set out for them either. Just like other leaders, they also pay the psychological price of achieving their dreams and maintaining their success.Bradley Smith is the prime example of unequivocal business success behind which hid the fear of failure, stress-ridden anxiety, and the constant feeling of not being enough. Smith is the CEO of Rescue One Financial, a California-based financial service company that, on average, makes $32 million/year in sales.In 2008, Bradley Smith was working day and night, counseling nervous clients on getting out of debt. But while he gave them advice, Smith was drowning in debt himself.Smith had a steep beginning; working with a debt settlement company, maxing out his credit card, selling his very first and most expensive watch, and doing business with family by asking his dad for a $10,000 loan. Smith and his wife were living off of scraps, making the best of what they had, and sharing only a bottle of wine for dinner. He would wake up in the middle of the night with his mind racing, wondering, 'how can I ever turn this thing off?'  Want more proven business success tips and resources?  Of course you do… Subscribe to my blog by going to www.acountabilitycoach.com/blog. I’m the author of many books, including, Excuses Don’t Count; Results Rule, Live Life with No Regrets, No Excuses, The Guide to Stopping Procrastination, The Power of Visualization, My Gratitude Journal, the Work Life Balance Emergency Kit, and The Roadmap To Success with Stephen Covey and Ken Blanchard, and more.  Unlock a blueprint to creating and having your ideal business and ideal life by scheduling your free consultation with me today!

Emotional intelligence is a vastly underrated trait in a great business leader. While hard skills, such as technical skills or knowledge, can be learned, emotional intelligence needs to be cultivated. Soft skills such as empathy, patience, and self-awareness, are all crucial for successfully leading a team and growing your business to your next level. Leaders who have high emotional intelligence are much farther ahead of the curve than those who have a keen instinct for business. They’re more capable of building a team they can retain, and aware of what it takes to motivate that team as they grow their company. If it’s so important, why is it so underrated? Let’s explore more about why this trait is the foundation of a successful leadership tenure. What is Emotional Intelligence?Components of Emotional Intelligence How to Display Emotional Intelligence Prioritize emotional intelligence as you lead your company. Practice self-awareness, transparency with your team, and above all, empathy. Taking the time to understand your own emotions as well as your employees’ emotions will help you to be a more effective, more compassionate, and an even more successful leader! Unlock a blueprint to creating and having your ideal business and ideal life by scheduling your free consultation with me today!  Want more proven business success tips and resources?

Your business is scaling, which is fantastic! It means that your business is successful and growing, as is your team. And it’s more important now than ever to preserve your company’s culture, or what made it so great in the first place. A symptom of rapid expansion can be feeling like the spirit of the company is not the same as it once was. With more people joining your team, they can have an impact on the overall culture of the company. More individual personalities means more voices, and the core set of values that you once established may be lost among the noise. Scaling your business doesn’t mean you need to choose between success and a strong company culture—in fact, if your culture is well-defined, many of your new hires will echo those values and uphold them as they help you grow your business. Let’s explore four ways to preserve your company culture as your team continues to grow and you scale your business.How much of your company culture you preserve as you scale depends on how much you care about it. Preserve your company culture as you scale by being an example of your company values, hiring to fit company culture, and adapting as the company grows while maintaining the core of who your business is.  Get your daily Accountability Minute shot of a single, simple, doable idea, so you can start your day off on the "right foot".

Persistence is sort of like a ‘magic word’ when it comes to success. Persistence is basically the repetition or continuation of behavior, and it is an absolutely essential part of business. As a successful business owner, you no doubt have at least a pretty good idea of what it takes to be persistent, though it never hurts to revisit a subject that is very important.  The whole idea of persistence revolves around the fact that motivation has a tendency to wax and wane a bit as time goes by. Persistence is a behavior that can be learned, and it is also a behavior which will render this troublesome waxing and waning of your motivation harmless in the long run, which is why it is so instrumental to expanding your current level of success. However, since persistence is an attribute of longevity, it can take some strength of mind and some psychological fortitude to really believe in it enough to make a commitment to practice it day after day. Now, we are going to discuss 4 steps to building persistent behavior. Following these steps will help you with the process of more consistently being a persistent person so you can experience even better results. Every day, remind yourself that persistence is an absolute necessity. Without it, any business will flounder and possibly even fail. If you find yourself lacking persistence, then keep taking each of these four steps, one at a time. Taking a proactive approach to solving this problem is by far the best way to deal with it, and these steps forward are a perfect way to get started! I’m the author of many books, including, Excuses Don’t Count; Results Rule, Live Life with No Regrets, No Excuses, The Guide to Stopping Procrastination, The Power of Visualization, My Gratitude Journal, the Work Life Balance Emergency Kit, and The Roadmap To Success with Stephen Covey and Ken Blanchard, and more.   Unlock a blueprint to creating and having your ideal business and ideal life by scheduling your free consultation with me today!
