You may not want to hear this, but this one piece of advice could change your life. Accountability. Over. Everything. The moment you stop blaming other people is the moment you take your power back. So many people are afraid to make mistakes because they think failing means they suck. No! Accountability isn't about being down on yourself, it's about recognizing that you're in control. If everything is your fault, then everything is fixable. It's just a matter of figuring it out.
I genuinely think every single thing that's not working in my company is my fault. If Sally or Ricky mess up at work - guess what? I'm the one that hired them. It starts and stops with me, which is a very empowering position to be in. I think where many people struggle is they spend their lives assigning blame to outside sources: parents, clients, the government, etc. The problem is that when someone else is in control, it doesn't feel good. Reclaim agency over your life and realize you have the power to control the outcome. I think when you have self-esteem and competence and you layer on accountability, things get way more fun.

Last Wednesday made 2 years without one of the greatest artists, leaders, and all around human beings I've ever known. RIP to Nipsey Hussle. He may be gone, but never forgotten. We should all aspire to leave a legacy as amazing as his. ️
Believe in yourself. Surround yourself with others that do too. Cut out ✂️ the negative people, or if they're your "loved ones," limit the interactions. Negativity is poison and must be avoided and understood at all times!
