Here’s a secret from our Los Gatos personal trainers for anyone who wants to establish healthy habits like exercising regularly and eating right. Use a coach or accountability partner. The scientific research is clear: You’re more likely to achieve your goal that way. The right coach can help you shape your desires into goals, establish a structured plan, and provide useful feedback. They can also be accountability partners, as can a friend, colleague or family member who will support and challenge you. So, after you’ve found the right person, go ahead and share your commitments with others, track your progress, and celebrate milestones. All of those are powerful tools to keep you going. Here’s a sample of the fascinating research that backs this up. People who share goals and provide regular updates reach 76% of their goals, compared to 43% who keep quiet. Accountability partners increase the success rate of behavior change (like exercise and diet) by up to 95%. People with an accountability partner are 65% more likely to feel a strong commitment. And in the corporate world, one study found that executive coaching brought a 529% return on investment, greatly benefiting the employee AND the business. All of this makes sense, doesn’t it? You know from experience – and from your heart – that you do better when you have someone coaching and cheering you along. We all do.
