Whichever organising goal you’re aiming for, being accountable to someone for your actions (and inactions!) will help you succeed. The key is to select an Accountability Buddy who will give you the support, encouragement and nudge you need in just the right amount, without passing judgement or criticism. Choose a buddy who will lift you up, not bring you down. Choose a buddy you can speak openly and honestly with, and who will do the same to you. Be clear on what you want from them, and set ground rules that work for both of you. Report in on a regular basis, even when you feel you could have done better.
Who will you select as your Accountability Buddy?
