Own It!


"All business depends upon men fulfilling their responsibilities."

Mahatma Gandhi
Late 19th/early 20th century leader of Indian nationalism

Excuses may explain why you didn't accomplish your goals but they don't excuse your failure.

Ultimately it comes down to put up or shut up.

No one gets paid forever simply explaining failure.

  1. My God! You've read my mind or sat in one of my staff meetings. This is exactly what I tell our employees every chance I get. We either create value or there is no money for any of us. It's not how hard or long we work it's what we accomplish.

    I'm a faithful long time BW reader and while most all the posts are good, this is one of the best. Rest assured my employees will see this.

  2. Glad you enjoy BW Franklin, and this particular post, however it doesn't take much to identify this problem. It happens all too often in way too many companies.
