Commitment and Accountability in Pursuing Goals

When pursuing a new goal, the key is to establish commitment and accountability. This can be achieved by proactively scheduling and financially committing to the necessary steps. By putting deadlines in place, creating time in the schedule for actual work, and declining appealing distractions, progress towards the goal becomes non-negotiable. Additionally, creating social pressure and publicly announcing the goal generates external accountability. These actions counter the initial doubts and obstacles, ultimately driving and forcing oneself forward in achieving the set goal.
