One thing that many people don't realize when it comes to planning for success is that when we are striving for something, it can be hard to stay motivated. Once we start skipping a day, it can quickly snowball into skipping the entire week. Before we know it, we've lost track of our goals and our motivation, and there's no way to get hooked again. If we are unwilling to hold ourselves accountable for our success, it can be very difficult to reach our goals. So how do we begin to hold ourselves accountable for our success? This is a real problem.

Most of the time, we are too embarrassed to even talk about our plans with other people, let alone find a way to help us hold ourselves accountable for achieving our goals. Many of us are probably familiar with the embarrassment of being excited about a plan or goal only to have a friend ask us about it later, long after we've given up hope of succeeding. However, this is where a support network really comes in handy.
