One Man’s Goal: A Lesson in Public Accountability

One of the quickest ways to test your commitment on any Goal is to ask yourself,

“Would I want the whole world to see my progress towards this?”

If you don’t have enough internal motivation already, making a public declaration of your Goal will surely add fuel to your fire.

Bryan, of OneMansGoal.com, set himself up in the most public way possible. 

Ironically, he created a blog, about his Goal, which is to create an income through itself.   A blog, by it’s very nature requires daily actions and daily improvements for it’s own success.

Bryan increased his accountability further by setting a Goal to share what he is learning AND reveal his results.  He is emotionally connected to his audience and thrives on making contributions to their blogging skills.  Win-win.  :)

Like most Goals, this one lives or dies based on consistency and persistence.  Small steps, in this case, daily steps, will accumulate into Bryan achieving his Goals.  Of course he will fine tune his mission over time, but he is off to a great start.

One critical extra bonus of making your Goal public is that it allows other people to support and encourage you.

Live Your Dreams,

Jill

    Thanks for the kind words.

    I can’t stress this enough though… this goal Isn’t just about me. I, not unlike you, want to share my successes and failures with the world. I want to create a roadmap to success that can be replicated by anyone willing to put in some work!

    Jill is an inspiration to all of us, she’s already accomplished so much, but she remains driven to achieve even more!

    I am so pleased to have Jill on my side in this goal. She’s a wealth of knowledge and I hope to learn a lot from her.

    May all your dreams be big ones!
    Bryan

    Hi, I’m very intrigued by your goal, but to be honest, when I went to your site I was confused as to what it was? Am I missing something? Just curious. I love goal setting and would love to hear more.

    Thanks for popping by!
    JOY
