The #1 Rule for Growth

Tuesday, December 12

The #1 rule for growth is this: it is 100% up to you.

Whether you are wanting to grow as a leader, in a specific skill, in your health, in your relationships, in your finances, in your mindset, you are 100% responsible. Nobody can do the work for you. Nobody is coming to save you. Nobody is obligated to do anything. No amount of wishful thinking will change your situation. If you want things to get better, you have to accept responsibility. You have to take ownership. You have to take action. Every single day.

That doesn’t mean you can’t ask for help. That doesn’t mean you can’t seek counsel or community along the way. But at the end of the day, the only person who can do the work is you. And in that truth is an incredible amount of freedom, potential and power. It means you don’t have to wait. You don’t need permission. All you need is you.

The day you accept and embrace that is the day your journey of personal growth truly begins.
