Most accountability fails because it’s either public spectacle or vague intention. The One‑Minute Relay is a short, dignified ritual: each week you and a rotating peer exchange a 60–90 second message that names (1) the one standard you defended, (2) one concrete piece of evidence (a photo of a finished run, a sent receipt, a brief screenshot), and (3) a single next step with a deadline. In nine minutes James explains the behavioral logic, gives three rotation models including a cross‑domain swap (e.g., fitness <> work), and reads a real 30‑second transcript so listeners hear the exact tone. Practical scripts, low‑friction rules, alternate text options, and a simple private archive keep the practice usable and secure. Try a three‑week experiment, track memos sent and next steps completed, then decide. Subscribe and pick your first partner this week.
