Moving to a new area and establishing new relationships has forced me to renew & re-think accountability. In Mesa I had steadily insulated myself with many levels of accountable relationships. I had professional accountable and challenging mentors. I had spiritually accountable relationships. I had friends who would hold me accountable to leading better within my family. Last year I had finally establish accountable workout partners. I don’t think there wasn’t aspect of my life where more than one person was holding me accountable consistently. Being in a new arena it has become very apparent that I have to work to establish accountability all over again. Just saying this I am sure causes some to think “what is wrong”. Nothing is ‘wrong’. BUT if you really want to grow, you shouldn’t wait for something to go wrong to then get accountable. However, that is what most people do. They get called to account AFTER they have made some fatal errors in the life and in their judgement. I HIGHLY recommend you get accountable BEFORE something goes wrong so that you can avoid the painful experiences of major life failure. Tomorrow begins a new circle of accountability — Every Thursday morning @ 5:30 a.m. I am meeting with 6 other leaders from across the nation. In addition to that I am developing face to face relationships here in Seattle. What are you doing in your life to be accountable?
