In my first post, I explained why its important to Develop Your Accountability System and how we should keep pointing ourselves back towards our goals again and again. In this second part I’m going to share you why I think Systems triumph over intentions.
The best of intentions will be dominated by whatever system you have in place. If you have no system, then either old habits or just plain confusion will dominate in the long run, regardless of your intentions and motivation. The primary and Secondary (PAS) is just one tool for staying on track — it’s my favorite because it takes goals and tie them all the way down to the level of actions in the moment. So accountability exists at all levels.
But the real key is that it’s a fundamental part of every day life. Without daily or sometimes even hourly refocusing on the most important goals, it’s just too easy to lose sight of your goals and get diverted. So even though it requires some effort to put together a primary and secondary action plan, it’s worth it.
