Follow through | 5 Minute Friday

Invest financially in your commitments (e.g., purchase a course, register for an event) to create a strong psychological commitment to follow through.

Announce your goals to someone whose opinion you value, especially someone who will hold you accountable, to increase your motivation to deliver.

Choose accountability partners who will challenge you and give you a hard time if you don't follow through, rather than just being understanding.

Leverage the desire to set a good example for others (e.g., family, employees) as a powerful motivator to complete challenging tasks.

Implement systems and processes in your business that inherently build accountability and help you complete tasks, rather than relying solely on willpower.

Publicly declare your business goals or initiatives, perhaps through team meetings or client communications, to create external pressure to achieve them.
