(upbeat music) - Hello, and welcome to the Accountability Coach podcast. We will discuss topics, ideas, questions, and issues related to having a totally balanced and successful life. This is Ann Baccract. Today, we're going to talk about are you really committed to your success? Sure, many entrepreneurs say that they are committed to their success, but are they really? When it comes to commitment to your success, there has to be a no excuses, no exception rule to back it up. This rule no more holds true than for entrepreneurs simply because there is no one to point the finger at should things not work out as planned. As an entrepreneur, you are the one holding the key to your success, and no one but you can be accountable. Once you make a commitment to something, there absolutely has to be a no excuses, no exception rule because that's the only rule that separates the failures from the successes. Imagine what would happen if you were to commit to your success only 99% of the time. Hmm, think about this. One percent of your clients would be unhappy with your products or services, and proceed to tell 10 of their friends. Those people would proceed to tell their friends they had a friend that had a bad experience. This could translate into dozens of lost clients and thousands in lost revenue. One percent of your printed marketing material was published with a spelling or grammatical error. This has a devastating effect on any business with a poor perception from the public and potential clients. Hmm, what about this one? One percent of the time, you don't answer your email from a prospective client within 24 hours. You respond a few days later, but learn they have taken their business to someone else who responded promptly. See how much difference that there is between a 99% and a hundred percent commitment. Although one percent doesn't sound like much, reaching a hundred percent commitment at every opportunity is not always easy. The only way to truly hold a reputation for commitment is by consistently demonstrating a hundred percent to each and every task. Once genuine commitment is really displayed, your success is inevitable. There are two rules when it comes to your success and a sure-fire way to catapult your success, but they only work when you're a hundred percent committed. Here's rule number one. A hundred percent commitment to achieving your goals. There may be many opportunities for excuses and exceptions, but under no circumstance do you waver from what you truly desire, not ever. What do you do if your life doesn't support your goal achievement? In all honesty, there's no easy way around it. Some changes will have to be made. Sometimes those changes are easy and other times they are not, especially when there are others to consider. This is no more true when you have a spouse or significant other and/or children. After all, everything that's actionable you take has a potential to affect them. You may have to do some soul searching to find out if you can make changes that will allow you to commit to your goals while doing the least amount of discomfort to those that will be directly affected. If you choose to commit to achieving your goals, do not settle for anything less. Rule number two, a hundred percent commitment is never ending improvement. The second key to your success is committing to never ending improvement. You may be better than you were yesterday, but in no way are you better today than you will be tomorrow. Taking a humble approach to learning is one of the best ways to set yourself up for success. Use every action and reaction as an opportunity to learn how to do things better next time. In addition, surround yourself with as many positive role models as you can. Watch, listen, and learn from successful entrepreneurs that have gone before you. What you learn can result in huge shifts in your perception, your life, and your results. When you're facing obstacles or challenges, do not allow self-doubt, fear, or frustration to sway your commitment. In fact, during these times, it's more important than ever to remind yourself why your goals are important to you. Reconnect with the emotions that are the driving force behind your goals, and you'll remember why you were taking the steps in the first place to make the changes. Remember, your commitment to your success not only benefits you, but those around you, and the world as well. You must embrace commitment to your goals along with never-ending improvement if you wish to reach true success. Peter Drucker says, "Unless commitment is made, there are only promises and hopes, but no plans." My hope for our time together is that you got some value and an idea or two that will help you be even more successful, professionally and personally.
