Episode 6: Accountability — Why You Won’t Reach Your Goals Without It

In this episode of Beast of Burden, Paul Bassett takes a deep dive into the real driver behind long-term results: accountability. With all the free information in the world — workouts, meal plans, and expert tips just a click away — most people still fall short because they’re not being held to their commitments.

Paul explains what accountability really means, why it’s often uncomfortable, and how it separates those who achieve their goals from those who drift back into old habits. He shares the systems his team uses to keep clients on track, the common roadblocks that derail progress, and the role of both encouragement and tough questions in creating lasting change.

If you’ve ever started with the best intentions but lost momentum — or wondered why “going it alone” rarely works — this episode will show you how to put the right structures in place and stick to them.
