Chronicles of Accountability: Day Two

4:45 AM EST - Caleb is up, makes me want to sleep in.  Snooze.

5:40 AM EST - I'm up.. OK.  Twitter myself in...  Getting ready to work out.

7:49 AM EST - Worked out, was "OK."  Notice that the election is up in the air as usual.  Scary stuff on the TVs, such as the Fairness Doctrine

186 E-mails.  Time to clean it up.

8:00 AM - Getting sidetracked, writing a semi-journal blog post about Richard Branson.

9:00 AM - Showered Up, Email Cleaned Out and Time to call. 

Goals for today are 50 phone calls, trying to create 5 more mets (had 2 yesterday) and make at least 5 connections (3 yesterday).   I'm also going to talk to some vendors about lowering their fees or losing my business. 

10:00 AM EST - Yikes only 4 phone calls - all good though! Result:  1 Pending Listing Appointment, 1 "1 on 1" Scheduled, an updated file and one SOI call.

10:21 AM EST - Call reluctance is seemingly gone when I'm forcing myself to blog about it.  So far about 15 calls made, no connections.  One interesting note:

Name - Notes: Was rude last time I called.  - Action Taken - Delete Contact.

I'm really not wanting to work with those who don't want me to help them.  It's paying off!

10:38 AM EST - 6 more phone calls, 1 connection = one pending buyer appointment.

11:28 AM EST - Updated E-mail drip campaigns to include Brutal Honesty Blog  and social media links.  Scheduled another 1 on 1.  Getting ready for a meeting with a past client for lunch!

2:28 PM EST - Lunch was good, great to see an old client.  1 Referral passed! A great idea also was created.  We'll see if it materializes.  Could be large.

2:43 PM EST - Caught up on all my calls, but need to call some extra people for "50." Got sidetracked.

3:29 PM EST - Sphere Calls, BNI Reports Prepped and "POW" Opportunity strikes!..... and so does Life.  Need to watch the kids for a few hours...likely into "quitting time."

Joshua - watching to see how you do before I attempt this; good idea.

Bobby - We'll see.  It's hard to keep as real time as I would like, but I think it'll be interesting to see what happens by the end of the week, since I'm over-analyzing my day.

Enjoyed reading you day!  Think I need to hold myself more accountable too!  It's all too easy to just let the day slide on by and suddenly - no calls, contacts or not enough of them.
