Weekly Accountability Thread
Stay on track with your Substack goals
Hey there, how’s your week been?
Mine’s been super-busy, as I prepare for the first of many interstate and international trips this year.
The great thing about earning money from Substack is it’s incredibly portable: I can make my weekly newsletters from anywhere.
Today I want to tell you about my new Weekly Accountability Thread. If you haven’t seen them yet, I launched a series of Chats - one per week - where you can hold yourself accountable for getting work done.
In each week’s thread I ask:
How did you go with your goal from last week? Did u get it done? Rate your outcome from 1 to 5 (5 = best).
What are you going to get done this week? Choose one thing, and be specific.
Next week, report on what you did.
The idea is to leverage the power of saying your goals out loud. Knowing that you will have to report on your progress can be just the nudge you need to stay motivated when you are losing focus.

Click your profile picture, then select Chat from the dropdown list.
