Accountability often sounds like a heavy word, but for me, it simply means doing what I said I would do and being honest when I can’t.

As a developer, I’ve found that accountability builds quietly through everyday habits. I try to keep things simple: set clear expectations, communicate early if something’s off track, and take responsibility for the outcome, good or bad. It’s not about being perfect; it’s about being dependable.

This approach has helped me feel more in control of my work. Accountability isn’t a checklist; it’s a mindset. And like most good habits, it starts small.
