Accountability

Hi everyone! Just some thoughts on the subject of accountability

When should we be accountable and to whom? We are accountable to our bosses, spouses, our families, our church family, ourselves!

We all know about the first four I listed but what about ourselves? Have you noticed that today it seems more and more that humans don’t hold themselves accountable for the things they do? I believe we should all hold ourselves accountable for the things we do.

I had a splurge meal last weekend. I overindulged myself! Now, personally, I don’t feel that a baked potato loaded with everything, once in a while is bad, But! Is it helping my journey to health...no. Did it satisfy my craving so I wouldn’t go off the rails and binge? Yes! Did acknowledging that keep me accountable...YES! I owned it and took responsibility for my lapse. As with anything in life, we must hold ourselves accountable for our actions and own them! I would be less than honest if I told you I wouldn’t do a splurge ever again. But, when I do, I will hold myself accountable and own it. Which means my next workout, I push myself a little harder. Do a few extra minutes on my elliptical. There are so many other examples of how we hold ourselves accountable in our lives... Take a few moments and think about ALL the ways YOU personally hold yourself accountable.

Have a Blessed & Happy Weekend everyone!
