#5: Accountability System
Hey friends,
I looked back to the previous issues of this newsletter and noticed I’ve actually sent out an issue every Sunday in February. I never thought I’d be able to keep up with creating snippets about stuff I’ve learnt during the week.
I’ve always wanted to be focused and improve every day, but I’ve struggled with this in the past months. Then I read about creating an accountability system. The idea of an accountability system is having someone to hold you accountable for getting things done. In the process, you give regular updates on what you’re working on.
I know I have to create content about stuff I’ve learnt during the week. This helps me to always stay focused and learn something new every day. This is the whole idea of having an accountability system.
If you are struggling with any task, or want to achieve a goal. Find someone to hold you accountable to that goal, create an accountability system, and this will help you greatly in achieving this goal.
Have a great week!
Daniel
My Favourite Things This Week
1 - Article - Ali Abdaal in this short article talked about removing options to be more productive. If we allow the element of choice when we do things, there will always be resistance. Just like we don’t have any other option but to bath in the morning, we should not have any options when we want to do other things too.
2 - Podcast - I didn’t listen to this podcast during the week, but I think it’s nice to add. If you want to learn or refresh your knowledge on the fundamentals of CSS. Listen to this ladybug podcast on CSS Fundamentals
Quote of the Week
One of the most powerful life skills, and one of the most important to hone and develop for both professional and personal success, is creating clear outcomes. This is not as self-evident as it may sound. We need to constantly define (and redefine) what we’re trying to accomplish on many different levels, and consistently reallocate resources toward getting these tasks complete as effectively and efficiently as possible.
