Personal responsibility - at first it's bitter... But if you chew on it long enough, it's yummy!

People use the same lame excuses for mediocrity in fitness, relationships, and business. It's easy to think of plausible reasons why you "can't" because these reasons make you a victim of circumstance rather than a victim of your own lack of action or initiative. Your excuses move everything out of the realm of your own control and personal accountability, and therefore the inadequacy of your current situation is not your fault.


Successful people fail just like the rest of us. The difference is that, when they fail, they realize it's their own fault. Then they analyze the failure, figure out the reason they failed, get up, dust themselves off, and try again with a new strategy. In order to do this, you must first accept responsibility for the failure.
