07. I'll Just Do it Later & 3 Other Excuses We Make To Avoid Accountability

No more excuses! If you’ve read up on habit culture, you know that habits are the key to productivity, big moves, and getting your life and business into that next level of success. “I’ll Do It Later” How many times have we all said, ‘“I’ll just do it later”? It seems to be ingrained in our society these days.  We over-promise and under-deliver. Habits like these create poor customer experiences. It’s not too late to begin working on this! That perfect customer experience is so worth it. “I Don’t Have Time” Sometimes we do have to have grace for those times when we can’t just power through because we really don’t have the time.

Our very salvation exists because God provided it for us through his Son. “I Can’t Afford That” Everyone has their own mindset when it comes to finances and we have to acknowledge our limitations. The issue here, though, can be a value problem. Oftentimes, it comes down to prioritizing one thing over another. When someone tells me they can’t afford something we take a look at what else they are spending money on and where we can change things up. My question to you is, which of these excuses is dictating your life? How dramatically have these excuses affected where you are today versus where you could be? At the end of the day, we need an accountability mindset and to stop the excuses. Let’s get uncomfortable with the process; in the discomfort is where we learn and grow.
