The second law of progression: Accountability
The sooner we realize that we are accountable for our lives, the faster we will progress through it. While our life should never be lived independent of God, we should also not discount the fact that we are stewards of all that God has given us, including our life.
Life is a series of choices and the kind of choices we make have a lasting impact on the direction our life takes. Joseph could have spent his life wallowing in self-pity when he was enslaved in Potiphar’s house or when he was imprisoned unjustly. He could have spent his time scheming up means of escape, to return to his father’s house. Instead, he chose to be accountable in the circumstances he found himself in and gave his best in all that he did. His attitude so pleased God that He prospered him to an extent where he was appointed the Prime Minister of the land.
In Matthew 25, Jesus drives across the concept of accountability through a parable. A man, before going on a long trip, gives three of his employees five, two and one talent respectively. On his return he finds that the employees to whom five and three talents were given had proved to accountable and doubled the amount, while the third employee to whom one talent had been given had returned the amount just as it was given to him. The two employees who had displayed accountability were given additional responsibilities or promoted, while the one that did not was stripped off the responsibility he already had.
Accountability will ensure that we meet with success in whatever we do. Instead of murmuring about the situation you are in or waiting for the right circumstance to come along, start being accountable in every situation that God places you in. When you learn to give your best at all times, you will please God. And when God is pleased, He will surely bless you. Choose to be accountable irrespective of place, time or the people watching.

About this Plan
God's desire for His Children is for them to prosper,grow and make progress and not just exist and survive. However we notice that while few progress most barely get through. Is our God partial to bless only few? As we browse through the Bible we see several instances of God accomplishing extraordinary achievements through ordinary people. As we we study the lives of these individuals we recognise specific principles at work, these principles are the Laws of Progression which when practised will cause individuals to excel and not just exist.
