Overcome Your Fear Of Asking For Help


What would it be worth to you if your greatest financial challenge was under control?

What would it mean to you if you stopped procrastinating and started getting things done? How would you feel about yourself if you knew you were doing everything possible to get your financial house in order?

Last week we spoke about procrastination and how it acts like tar to the soul of your feet.  We discussed three steps that make procrastination a thing of the past.  One of the most important steps in slaying the procrastination beast is having an accountability partner.  Have you spoken with your partner yet or are you still procrastinating?

If you are delaying, I can understand why.  It’s very difficult to ask for help.  It exposes a vulnerability.  It’s frightening.

But having an accountability partner is the single most powerful thing you can do if you are serious about getting your finances in order.

Here is a quick 4 minute video giving you step-by-step instructions on how to get over your fear, how to identify your accountability partner & how to approach that person.  At the end of this video, I throw down the ultimate Wealth Pilgrim Challenge.  Will you accept my challenge?

    Neal, Great Vid/Post. you went right to the heart of the matter for so many of us. It really is hard to ask for help in most areas of our lives, but I think the financial area is one of the toughest. I often hit this same roadblock with clients. I am going to share your post with my clients and friends. Thanks again. Well done.

    I deal with this every day too. I am fortunate to have a number of accountability partners and it’s made all the difference.

    I am glad you found this useful. I’d love to know how things unfold for you, your friends and clients. Thanks!

    Neal,

    I’m going to call my friend Barry today and ask him to be my accountability partner. He already asks me every time I see him what’s up with my job situation, but we don’t talk much.

    Doing this will actually provide a structure by which we can be in more regular contact.

    So I not only get accountability, I also get to talk to my friend more often!

    Thanks,

    Tom
