Accountability

Are you Accountable? If you were given a job, can you give in details, to an extent, the progress you have made even when you were not supervised the whole time? Accountability is being answerable, the responsibility of being called on to render account. The questions above are few among many questions that should run through your mind when this subject is thought of. Accountability is crucial in the records of progress with the end of success. Why talk about this subject? We all know that an individual should be accountable for his daily expenditures, of course that’s expected of every person who earns a living, but we will discuss the subject of accountability above this useful norm. Accountability is the ingredients in many successful men’s success. Those who are successful have a lot at hand, many things calling for their attention. They don’t have the time for things that don’t matter to them, a lot to handle but still with same two arms and two legs, they can only be present in one place at a time. In the sight of these, there is the need for the lifestyle of accountability, one in which the attitude of consistency is at work. If successful people practice this, don’t you think the man with same goal should too? Ways in which you can employ this lifestyle • Your time. A man should be accountable for how he spends his time. You see, money can be made, it can even be bought, houses, cars, businesses, even organs can be bought, but all these are subject to one thing which is time. In time, houses and cars will fade and become old or obsolete. In time men will grow old and die, that makes their organs dead too and soon useless. Unlikely, time cannot be bought, it’s a free gift of God to humanity. Time lost cannot be recovered. We can’t buy time, that’s a reason to employ accountability in the use of time. When you set your mind to do something ensure that you have a set time to do that which you have purposed. Reduce irrelevant activities and channel your time to your achieving your goal. • Your monetary expenditures If you have a vision which you should as an individual, you should understand the importance of money and so adopt the attitude of accountability which will help you monitors the way you spend it. Truly, as it’s said, ‘money is never enough', when you have it in your possession, there is always an urge to spend it lavishly. For this reason, you should instill in yourself this attitude of being accountable so that you can manage your finances and be able to know when you are declining financially. Don’t buy what you don’t need, a need may arise, something unplanned, which may require your urgent attention, when you spend accountably, such needs could be attended to without much troubles. • Your dreams and visions Having a dream/vision is not enough, but achieving it is the real thing that men will appreciate. How well have you proven that vision? You claim that you have a dream but as you pursue it, how do you monitor your progress? With the right attitude, you should be able to know how much you have done so far towards it’s accomplishment. When you are accountable, you will achieve your dreams faster because you will take note of your mistakes and errors quickly and take necessary action. This will reduce unnecessary time wastage and save you the emotional traumas that comes with failure. Don’t get me wrong, this doesn’t mean that you may not fail, but, you can reduce the chances of failure by adopting the right attitude, and in this case accountability.
