Hold Me To It

What Happens If You Stop Avoiding Things For One Week?

🔥 Chronic Avoiders: Here’s Your Wake-Up Call 🔥 If you’re one of those people who dodges accountability like it’s the IRS — listen up. You can’t grow if you keep shrugging things off. Pick one thing you know you avoid. I don’t care what it is — replying to texts, showing up on time, finishing a damn task — and do it for a week. ✅ Text people back within an hour. ✅ Return that call. ✅ Handle that task you keep ghosting. Be intentional. Because action rewires avoidance. And here’s your kicker — Step 3: Get called out. Find someone you trust to hold you to your word. A friend, a mentor, a therapist — hell, your mom if she’s savage enough. There’s a 2020 study in Behavior Research and Therapy that proves this: external accountability — like check-ins with a coach or a no-BS friend — dramatically increases your follow-through. But pick a truth-teller, not a cheerleader. You don’t need someone to baby you while you make excuses. You need someone to say: 👉 “Yo, you said you’d do it. Why didn’t you?” 👉 “What’s your plan to fix it?” Stop avoiding. Start acting. Let someone keep you honest. 👇 Drop a comment: What’s one thing you’ll stop avoiding this week? And who’s your truth-teller?
