As powerful as the MasterStream® Method is in influencing others, its greatest area for life-changing impact is at the individual level. Applying the MasterStream Method to the individual, the Accountable Self helps participants to "conquer the 80% existence."

In today's fast-paced world, everyone has unfinished business. Some things are professional projects that have never left the drawing board, and some things have been on a "to-do" list for far too long, yet never seem to get any closer to completion. Among those countless pieces of unfinished business, exercise, good nutrition and plenty of rest are all good examples of things we all know are important for us to do — but, if our level of productive tension about any of those activities isn't high enough, they will most definitely be given nothing more than a passing glance, routinely overlooked or ignored altogether. This pattern leads to a self-perpetuating, downward spiral as the lack of completion of tasks leaves someone with feelings of shame, guilt and a sense of emptyness and failure — thus, pushing the individual deeper into dysfunction, ensuring that more and more tasks to go unfinished.

The fact is that all tasks carry within them specific levels of importance, challenge and preparation. Tasks with great amounts of these elements will command our immediate attention — but let a task be lacking in ANY of those three elements, and struggle and failure will result. This can lead to starting many tasks, but finishing few — a jack of all trades, but a master of none.

The Accountable Self provides a system for identifying and eliminating the barriers preventing completion of a targeted list of objectives. It is structured around a self-diagnostic tool that helps people clarify the tasks in their life that are most important to them, then analyze those tasks to determine the level of readiness they possess in achieving those objectives. Finally, the Accountable Self helps the indvidual create a focused strategic plan of action that will result in feelings of pride and accomplishment, enabling them to become a finisher in a world of starters.

The Accountable Self is available from Certified MasterStream Professionals holding the designation of Certified ChangeWorks! Analyst, and is offered in formats ranging from a 1-hour keynote address to a 3-day intensive retreat and can also serve as the foundation for a coaching series of up 12 months.
