Take responsibility for your success or failure

The opportunity to succeed or fail through your direct actions meets at least four significant adversities.

  1. The discipline to earn what you want.
  2. The fear of embarrassment if you fail.
  3. The humility to learn from failure.
  4. The resilience to try again after a defeat.

Discipline. Fear. Humility. Resilience.

Each contains a unique element of adversity. Each presents a unique opportunity.

If your direct actions are going to be the source of your success or failure,  then it would be wise to clarify how you will overcome these adversities and leverage their opportunities.

The most intentional among us will make it one of their highest personal priorities.

Answer the call. Do the work.
