Accountability

A call from my doctor sent me straight to the pavement last week getting my walk on to start the process of pulling my body back together. From that first walk I gained a buddy and she is a true planner, counting steps, measuring distant calculating speed and fine tuning my program. She gladly shows up at my desk twice a day saying let's move. She holds me accountable. I remember participating in a group years ago when I decided it was time to address my anger and we were randomly split into accountability partners, just someone to give an honest report to twice a week about poor behaviors, a call it like it T.I.S. partner, but if I didn't want to change I would have never been open to allowing some stranger to call me out on my crap. What I'm learning is we can't always hear it when it comes from family or close friends and many of them can't say it, but a stranger has no vested interest or they possibly share the same vice making your ears more receptive. My suggestion would be if you don't have an accountability partner find one and watch how fast positive changes
