Accountability
@PoppyTries
I am hearing that this is a present struggle for you.
You would reflect on if what others are saying about you is true backed up with evidence.
Look at your typical patterns of behaviour and ask yourself could I have changed how I acted in X situation.
The question you are asking takes lots of self-reflection - have I shown anger in an unhealthy way, have i made a rude comment, have i struggled with boundaries, how do i really show up in my relationships, are there any contradictions in what i expect from others and myself?

My stimulant helps me a lot not sure if that’s something you can take but I have adhd and intellectual disability and autism I’m pretty good at cleaning now I still get distracted at times and stuff but it’s very hard to manage without meds the kind I have I couldn’t clean or hardly do anything I was stressed overwhelmed and had alot of anxiety for a while wasn’t til I moved somewhere else that I was able to do more things and some things have became habits over time. Write down your goal on paper and remind yourself on your phone or something about it and make that goal as small as possible and take it one step at a time hope this helps.
Telling someone of my goal and rewarding myself each step of the way.
I set daily goals for myself in an app called Trello, and I mark each one that I complete, which gives me a sense of accomplishment. Also, if I am struggling to make myself do a task, I tell a friend and she motivates me to do it. I am also reading Atomic Habits by James Clear, and I downloaded the Atoms app, which is a super simple and satisfying habit tracker. I'm using it to track my new habit of wiping one surface each day.
You can go a step further by writing a contract with a friend, with terms outlined for how you will work toward your goal, and consequences for failing to meet those terms. You and a friend can come up with creative ideas for consequences. I haven't tried this yet, but it's discussed in Atomic Habits.
I usually tell a friend about my plans and she tells me hers that way we both encourage each other ♥️

@PoppyTriesHolding yourself accountable to your goals can be challenging but very rewarding. Here are some effective strategies:
1. Write Down Your Goals: Make them clear, specific, and measurable. Writing helps solidify your commitment.
2. Break Goals into Smaller Tasks: Smaller, actionable steps make progress manageable and less overwhelming.
3. Set Deadlines: Having target dates creates a sense of urgency and structure.
4. Track Your Progress: Use a journal, app, or checklist to see how far you’ve come and what’s left.
5. Share Your Goals: Tell a trusted friend or family member who can encourage you and check in on your progress.
6. Create Consequences and Rewards: Set up incentives for meeting goals and gentle consequences for missing them.
7. Reflect Regularly: Take time to review what’s working and adjust your plan if needed.
