Seressia Glass – From Chaos to Clarity: How Accountability Transformed Her Productivity

I’m accomplishing things I used to put off or never quite finish. Now I know exactly what I need to do, and I have a realistic timeline for getting it done.

Overview:
Seressia Glass, a fiction author specializing in romance and urban fantasy, faced significant challenges with productivity and organization before joining Jessica Barna’s coaching program. Despite having ambitious goals, she often felt overwhelmed by her never-ending to-do list and lacked the accountability needed to stay on track. Working with Jessica transformed her approach to work, enabling her to overcome distractions and become much more productive in her writing and business.

Before Working with Jessica:

Life before Jessica was a hot mess.

Seressia struggled to stay organized and focused. Despite knowing what she needed to do, she found it difficult to break down her tasks into manageable steps. The lack of accountability led to procrastination, and important tasks often got pushed aside, creating stress and frustration.

I was able to let things slide because I did not have any kind of accountability. Sometimes, you give yourself too much grace, and things get postponed. Suddenly, it’s a month later, and you realize you haven’t done what you set out to do.

This lack of follow-through led to a cycle of scrambling to meet deadlines and, at times, compromising the quality of her work.

The Turning Point:

The turning point came when Seressia realized that she needed more than just good intentions to get things done. She recognized the importance of having someone to hold her accountable for the tasks she committed to. That’s when she decided to join Jessica’s coaching program, hoping for better structure and accountability to manage her overwhelming workload.

“Now I have somebody to report to weekly on what I have done based on our conversation the prior week. I know the five things that I should be trying to do this week. And I know that I should do them because she’s going to ask me on the call the following week,” Seressia said. “It’s like the kid bringing home their grades—I want to show that I’ve accomplished what I said I was going to do.”

The Transformation:

The coaching program brought immediate structure to Seressia’s week. With Jessica’s guidance, Seressia began focusing on five key tasks each week. This approach helped her prioritize what mattered most and gave her clear direction. Instead of feeling scattered, she now had a plan to follow, and the weekly check-ins kept her accountable.

Life after Jessica is not so frantic. Everything is put into manageable chunks of things that I can accomplish in a week. I just feel much more productive, and that’s the best thing.

The weekly accountability not only improved her productivity but also boosted her confidence as she made progress every week.

The Results:

The results of working with Jessica were dramatic. Seressia went from feeling overwhelmed and disorganized to becoming much more focused and productive. The five-task weekly structure allowed her to make steady progress without the stress of juggling multiple unfinished projects. She was no longer working in a state of chaos and was able to approach her goals with clarity and confidence.

I’m accomplishing things I used to put off or never quite finish. Now I know exactly what I need to do, and I have a realistic timeline for getting it done.

Key Takeaways:

  • Accountability is Key: Having someone to check in with each week kept Seressia on track and made her more committed to completing her tasks.
  • Prioritization Simplifies Success: Breaking down larger goals into five manageable tasks each week helped Seressia focus on what was most important, reducing overwhelm.
  • Productivity Improves with Structure: With clear weekly goals and a structured action plan, Seressia was able to make steady progress and feel more in control of her work.
