I have five meetings with the team at Early To Rise, using the meeting structure we teach at <a href=\"http:\/\/etruniversity.com\"><span class=\"s2\">ETR University<\/span><\/a>. I have two coaching calls. And of course, I must write my 1,500 words in the morning before Michelle and I walk <\/span>Daisy<span class=\"s1\">.  <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">But my favorite part of Monday is email. Yep, I love email.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">You see, every Monday, I hear from dozens of my coaching clients via their weekly <a href=\"https:\/\/www.earlytorise.com\/239-how-to-get-more-accountability-to-be-more-productive\/\">accountability<\/a> updates.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">In each weekly update, my clients have to answer 10 questions. I read their answers, and help solve their problems, congratulate them on their big wins, and guide them to the next victory.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">I hear everything\u2014and I mean everything\u2014from my clients. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">Sometimes I hear about marital problems or health issues. Other times, it\u2019s a struggle with depression. And almost every week, I read about a client whose team member quit or was fired. Then there\u2019s the constant struggle with sales, routines, and the addiction to work, work, work. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>My clients love what they do, so overworking is a common issue. I\u2019m the guy who helps them realign their schedules so they can focus on their number one<span class=\"s1\"> priority, their families. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">I\u2019m grateful for their openness and honesty. And I lead from the front by being vulnerable about my own struggles and action steps to success.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">Do you know what I see as the week\u2019s progress? I see more wins and fewer struggles. I see more confidence and less doubt. I see a lot more high performance and a lot less reluctance. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">Why? Because I\u2019m there to hold them accountable. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">The idea of accountability on the path to success is nothing new. But until you experience it for yourself, it\u2019s easy to dismiss as unnecessary.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">I know. I was there. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">Years ago, I tried doing everything myself. I tried running a business, marketing products, hiring employees, building workout routines, promoting my brand, enjoying a full social life, spending time with family. All of it. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">You can guess what happened. It all came crashing down on me, and I was hit with a string of crippling anxiety attacks.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">Eventually, I learned to drop my unhealthy coping mechanisms. I cut out the alcohol, the partying, the distractions (all triggers for anxiety). I found someone to hold me accountable to my own goals and priorities. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">That\u2019s when I realized that I was capable of so much more.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">The result, over time, was a measure of success I hadn\u2019t yet known. I often tell my clients that success loves speed, and that action beat anxiety. And perhaps most of all, that resilience, resourcefulness, and relentlessness are the tools of unimaginable high achievement. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">These are the tools I used to move my own life from chaos to clarity and confidence.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">I learned this the hard way. Slowly, I came to understand that I needed accountability\u2014someone to remind me of my \u201cwhy\u201d and what my goals actually were. I needed an outside voice to tell me I could and would succeed no matter the odds. I need a lovingly harsh critic.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">Because I am a high performer\u2014just like you and just like my many gifted, accomplished clients.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">Look, I know you have ups and downs. I do. My clients do. We\u2019re successful not because we\u2019re perfect but because we\u2019re always striving\u2014and always have someone to remind us of what it takes to achieve incredible things.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">I know you\u2019re capable of more. But you need someone to hold <i>you<\/i> accountable. You can\u2019t do this alone. Set your ego aside and find that person who will hold your feet to the fire when things get tough\u2014the person who knows you have it in you to be a high performer. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">Ask them to be your accountability partner, to guide you through your personal and professional growth. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">To get the accountability process started, send them your honest, thoughtful responses to these 10 questions every week:<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"s3\"><b>Your Weekly\u00a0Accountability\u00a0Questions:<\/b><\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">1) Rate last week on a scale of 1-10 (10 being amazing).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">2) What was your biggest priority last week?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">3) Did you accomplish it, and if not, why not?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">4) What did you learn last week?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">5) What was your biggest business highlight last week?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\"> 6) What was your biggest obstacle?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">7) What do you need to solve it?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">8) What was your biggest personal highlight last week?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">9) What needs to happen to make this week a success?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">10) What do you need help with and who do you need to contact?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">Encourage your partner to push you. They know you and they know your goals, so they should be able tell you where you\u2019re getting off track. And always keep the three R\u2019s in mind as you push toward your goals: resilience, resourcefulness, and relentlessness.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">No matter where you are on this rollercoaster of life or what dips you\u2019re driving through, you can do more.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">I believe in you.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">You know why?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">Because over 20 years of research and personal experience have shown me that we are all capable of so much more\u2014physically, mentally, and emotionally.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">That\u2019s why I committed to transforming the lives of 100 million incredible people. I believe in each of them, just as I believe in you.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">We\u2019ve all faced greater struggles in life. If you can move forward and grow despite everything you\u2019ve already endured, why can\u2019t you do this?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">You can. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">Think about your unfulfilled goals and dreams. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">Think about your BIGGEST vision for your life.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">It\u2019s possible to have it\u2014all of it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">Believe it. Act on it. Live it. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">Because when you believe, you achieve.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.securepublications.com\/perfectday\/pdffree-gse9.php?utm_ad=60210&amp;utm_placement=8&amp;utm_medium=1\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.earlytorise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/perfect-day-formula-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-69210\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.earlytorise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/perfect-day-formula-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/cdn.earlytorise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/perfect-day-formula-414x552.jpg 414w, https:\/\/cdn.earlytorise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/perfect-day-formula-354x472.jpg 354w, https:\/\/cdn.earlytorise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/perfect-day-formula.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">The foundations of today\u2019s inspiration are found in my book, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.securepublications.com\/perfectday\/pdffree-gse9.php?utm_ad=60210&amp;utm_placement=8&amp;utm_medium=1\"><strong>\u201cThe Perfect Day Formula.\u201d<\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.securepublications.com\/perfectday\/pdffree-gse9.php?utm_ad=60210&amp;utm_placement=8&amp;utm_medium=1\"><strong>You can get a copy for FREE here<\/strong><\/a>, and walk yourself through the steps my clients follow to overcome setbacks, have more impact, increase their income, and bring more freedom into their lives <\/span><span class=\"s3\">without<\/span><span class=\"s1\">\u00a0burning out.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Or, if you\u2019d prefer to have me walk you through this proven, step-by-step system, like I\u2019ve done for my clients like Bedros Keuilian, Joe Polish, Shanda Sumpter, Jay Ferruggia, Shawna Kaminski, Isabel De Los Rios, Joel Marion, and hundreds of other high performers, then send an email to support@earlytorise.com with the subject line \u201cCoaching\u201d to learn more. <\/p>\n<div id=\"author-bio-box\" style=\"background: #f8f8f8; border-top: 2px none #cccccc; border-bottom: 2px none #cccccc; color: #333333\">\n<h3><a style=\"color: #555555;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.earlytorise.com\/author\/craig-ballantyne\/\" title=\"All posts by Craig Ballantyne\" rel=\"author\">Craig Ballantyne<\/a><\/h3>\n<div class=\"bio-gravatar\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.earlytorise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/userphoto\/14.thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"Craig Ballantyne\" width=\"86\" height=\"100\" class=\"photo\"\/><\/div>\n<p class=\"bio-description\">If you want to double your income, work less, and become the ambitious millionaire you&#8217;ve always wanted to be&#8230; Craig Ballantyne is the coach who will help you do it.
