Take Responsibility for Your Mistakes

Take Responsibility for Your Mistakes

“In believing that you can go through life without

making a mistake is unrealistic. Mistakes

happen, the key is to admit your

mistakes . . . . and take the

responsible for them.”

Lou Ludwig, Sales and Management Consultant,

Success Coach, Speaker, Trainer and Author

As is see it . . . . . . . .

Take responsibility for your mistakes 

Mistakes happen . . . . and are part of your personal growth and in stretching yourself forward on your success journey. Use your mistakes as a learning experience to move forward  . . . . better prepared to handle the same condition in your future.

Never be too small or too big . . . . to admit your mistakes and have the strength to correct them.

You will earn far more respect in admitting your mistakes . . . . and in finding the best solution to the condition, then to be in a state of denial.

Those who look to try to cover up their mistakes, or deny them . . . . will come up looking bad . . . . and tarnish their reputation and lose respect.

You may not be able to correct all of your mistakes . . . . But you can take responsibility for your mistakes . . . . and grow as a person.

There Will be Roadblocks

Motivational Power Quote

There Will be Roadblocks

“If you’re trying to achieve, there will be roadblock. I’ve had them;

everybody has had them. But obstacles don’t have to stop you.

If you run into a wall, don’t turn around and give up. Figure

out how to climb it, go through it or work around it.”

Michael Jordan, Basketball Player

As I see it . . . . . . .

There will be roadblocks

There will be roadblocks . . . . to think any less is not being realistic.

As with anything in life that’s worthwhile . . . . there is a price that’s comes in achieving it.

As in Michael Jordan case . . . . he had to deal with rejection when he was cut and did not make his high school team. 

How did Michael deal with that rejection? Was be in as state of denial? Did he make excuses? Did he quit on himself?

The answer is NO . . . .

Michael wanted to get better and make the basketball team.

With the help of the high school basketball coach the one who cut Michael, he worked tirelessly with Michael . . . . to help him get better.

 

And when it was time for tryouts the next season . . . . Michael was ready he made the team and the rest is history.

There will be roadblocks . . . . Your future depends on how you handle them . . . . and what you do with them.

Those That Live In the Spin Zone – Die By the Spin

Motivational Power Quote

Those That Live In the Spin Zone – Die By the Spin

“Making a decision usually means taking one of two roads.

One is doing the right thing. To take the other road, you have to

sit back a spin a story around the decision or action you are

taking. If you find yourself thinking up an elaborate justification

for what you are doing, you are not doing the right thing.”

Wayne Sales, CEO Canadian Tire Corp

 

As I see it . . . . . . .

Those that live in the spin zone – die by the spin

We meet spin makers in every walk of life and profession . . . . and they may tell a great story when you first meet them. But the longer you know them the more you will realize that they are self-serving and someone that can’t be trusted.

The spin makers take the road of least resistance and the one that will offer them personal gain even when it’s at the expense of other people.

When the spin maker makes a bad decision . . . . they look at it as someone else’s problem and will resort to blame, denial and misdirection to make themselves look good.

As business professionals you need to steer a wide berth away from a spin maker . . . . and not to get caught up in their web of tails and untruths.

Those that live in the spin zone – die by the spin . . . . It’s only a matter of time until their ship sinks.

Courage is to Keep Trying

Motivational Power Quote

Courage is to Keep Trying

“Courage doesn’t always roar. Sometimes courage is the quiet voice

at the end of the day saying, I will try again tomorrow.”

Mary Anne Radmacher, author  

As I see it . . . . . . .

Courage is to keep trying

Many times the easy way out is to walk away and to not try . . . . real courage is to keep trying and to overcome the conditions that are in front of you.

Many walk away and find themselves in a constant state of procrastination . . . . or in denial of the conditions and true facts.

It takes courage to come back day in and day out and to push to reach your objectives. Courage creates the persistence . . . .to try and try again to stay on purpose.

In trying you may find yourself coming up a little tattered . . . . but there is no success without trying and you can always dust yourself off.

The real courage is the quiet voice that’s inside you . . . .saying to keep going.

Courage is to keep trying . . . . and success comes as a result of your continuous efforts to move you in the right direction.
