Accountability Partners are Us!
They say that all successful endeavours (programs, products, businesses) were once nothing more than an idea - so today I want to present you with an idea:

helpIn last Thursday's post - Eight Steps to Getting out of that Rut - I spoke about the notion of using an Accountability Partner; someone to help you stay focused, objective, proactive, positive and productive on your journey. I also talked about the value of channelling your energy into something (a project) or someone, other than yourself. The truth is that (1) from time to time we all need a coach to kick our butt, answer our questions, listen to our concerns and support us through a challenging time and (2) we can all benefit greatly by investing our time, energy, knowledge and compassion into the lives of others; taking the focus off us for a while. By helping others we actually help ourselves; the perfect win-win relationship.

Well, these two factors seem to have pushed some buttons with a few of you and have given rise to an idea. A bunch of comments and emails have told us a few things:

1) Some of you struggle from time to time to keep doing what you need to reach your goals and could benefit from having your own Accountability Partner... but finding one is easier said than done.

2) Some of you would like the opportunity to 'give back' and are interested in being able to coach, mentor, support (be an Accountability Partner for) someone who needs some help... but you don't necessarily know how to make that happen.

3) Some of you may want to support someone else while seeking out an Accountability Partner of your own (even coaches need coaches) at the same time.

With this in mind, we (Webmaster Johnnie an I) are currently considering developing some kind of forum to make this happen; a cyber-place where you can find an Accountability Partner, or become one for someone else.

But wait....

But before we explore the idea any further or invest too much time, energy or creative juice, we need to establish the level of interest (or disinterest) from our readers in such a concept. This is not a commercial idea in any way, shape or form but rather a chance for people to help or be helped. No strings, no catches, no agenda; just an opportunity to do some good and be selfless - a crazy notion I know.

Because we have a truly global audience (we're currently at about 40,000 visitors per week), there's every chance that you would be partnering someone on the other side of the world - how cool would that be?

Interested?


shake handsIf you are interested in (1) finding an Accountability Partner to help you reach your goals or (2) becoming an Accountability Partner to help someone else on their journey, simply click on the comment thingy (don't be a chicken) and voice your interest. If you have any thoughts, ideas and / or suggestions we would GLADLY welcome your input and help. Goodness knows, we need it!

If there's enough interest (need), then we'll find a way to make it happen. Imagine being able to do good, help a stranger and genuinely make a difference without even leaving your house; volunteer work from your keyboard - too cool.
