Whatever we do in life whether it is related to work, relationships or life events accountability is key. It is very tempting to blame negative things on something outside of ourselves, like another person or a situation, but this can cause us lots of problems. Others will see us as someone who does not take responsibility or someone who cannot be trusted to complete a project or an assignment. It also creates an attitude in ourselves that causes us to miss out on opportunities, because we lose confidence in ourselves and we play small. However, if we take accountability for every aspect of our lives we can achieve great things. Every successful person in the history of mankind has taken responsibility for their lives. If we are caught in traffic it is our fault that we did not account for that and set off earlier. If we don’t get a job it is our fault that we did not ace the interview or have the right experience. If we get overlooked for an opportunity at work it is our fault that we did not hustle and get noticed. If we change our mindset to thinking that everything is our fault, far from being a negative thing, it actually trains our minds to be problem solvers, to be objective achievers and to be high performers. Accountability is key.
