 It all has to start from a foundation of taking full ownership over everything in your life. The very first step to high performance in maximizing growth is realizing that it's completely up to you. You need to be able to look in the mirror every single day and say, I accept 100% responsibility for, and I'll let you fill in the blank. You are 100% responsible for your own happiness and fulfillment. You are 100% responsible for your preparation, for your enthusiasm, for your commitment to your team or your organization. You are 100% responsible for your effort and for your attitude. No one else is responsible for those things. And as soon as you acknowledge that you are responsible for those building blocks of what it takes to maximize your growth and maximize your potential, that will lead you directly to having a winner's mindset. And a winner's mindset is waking up every day saying, I'm going to do the best I can with what I have where I am. I'm going to do the best I can with what I have where I am. And there'll be many times, like in the midst of a global pandemic, that you will find yourself riddled with very valid limitations. But nevertheless, you need to say, I'm still going to do the best I can with what I have where I am. And when you have that mindset, you'll immediately eliminate a trilogy of things that will prevent you from being the best you're capable of. That's complaining, blaming, and making excuses. When you can rid yourself of complaining, blaming other people or other things and making excuses, it's like taking a weight vest off. You'll become emotionally more nimble immediately. Now, I don't use absolutes very much, but I can promise you this. Complaining, blaming, and making excuses will do absolutely nothing to move you forward and improve your situation. We'll do absolutely nothing.
