The buck stops with you

You’re responsible for every outcome. Always. Whether you like it or not.

If your team is not performing to their potential, who gets the blame? You. If you didn’t close the deal that you hoped, who’s responsibility is it? Yours. If you don’t get an opportunity, who should have tried harder. You.

You make choices every second of every day. The choice to work. The choice to sleep late. The choice to buy groceries at the organic store. And over time, these choices add up to the life that you end up living.

There’s no time to spend complaining, “Why God? Why is it always me?” The truth is you have tremendous power to change your reality and you waste it. By watching Netflix. By spending time on Instagram. By not putting in the extra effort.

If there is one thing, I wish I could share with the world so loudly it’s this: It’s all on you. The buck stops with you. You can accomplish anything once you recognize that you are playing a part in creating it. The second you accept the responsibility, then watch all those opportunities appear.

You always have the responsibility. Choose to be believe in possible. And then choose to take advantage of the opportunities.

You don’t have any time to waste.
