Cannot preach accountability without discussing awareness

Art vs Science

One cannot coach the concept of accountability without first speaking to awareness.

Awareness of yourself as an individual first. Understanding you are not your thoughts, you are not your feelings, you are not your emotions. You are just you.

Only then can you speak as a leader to help others become self-aware. Helping them to understand they are not their thoughts, they are not their feelings or emotions. They are just themselves.

Once you can understand the concept of awareness, you don’t even have to agree with this definition, just understand we must be aware.

Then you can start to teach accountability. At best you can encourage people to be more accountable based on their own awareness. You cannot force awareness or accountability, you can only encourage it. It’s up to each individual to decide how to interpret this.
