Scarlett Letter #5: Surefire way to hold yourself accountable

If you want to accomplish a big goal, tell people –lots of people– your plans.

Yea, sure, you could just write it down on a private master list (I do that, too). But if you don’t show that list to anyone, so are you really completing everything you want?

I have two plans to share with my readers. I have no choice but to carry out my plans. Pride won’t let me do otherwise!

1. I’m taking the LEED exam in late June. I’ve shouted this news from the mountaintops (and across cyberspace, too) so that people will ask me about it, and expect me to pass. That public ‘pressure’ will keep me focused.

2. I’m (slowly) becoming savvy with social media outlets. Since January 2009, I have taken many steps to become more versed and active, while also taking care not to delve deeper than needed for the best results. Before the end of 2009, I plan to strike the perfect balance of social media to serve my clients and grow my business.

There, now you have it. You’re keeping me focused and honest by simply reading this. Tell me your plans, and I’ll do the same for you….
