The Power of Personal Accountability

It may be unpopular, but I have always loved the phrase, "If it's meant to be, it's up to me."

I love it because it holds me accountable for contributing to every situation in my life. It means that if God placed a mission, goal, or dream in my heart, he equipped me with the grit I need to do the job.💪 It means that he will place the right teachers, mentors, and people in my path to help me. It means that I will learn the lessons I need along the way and that my dream will come to pass.

It doesn't mean that we won't get tired, that it will be perfect, that we will never weather the storm, that it will happen fast, or that it will look exactly as we expect it to.

I control how hard I work and my attitude if I remain disciplined and do more than is expected of me. I choose to be excellent in my effort, knowing that when I do that, the results will be better than I could have ever imagined. 🙌

The world will tell you to do the minimum, that doing less will get you to where you want to be. That's a lie. Doing less may be fashionable, but it's not what dreams are made of.

Ask yourself this: What would happen if I trusted, worked hard, had a great attitude, remained disciplined, and went the extra mile?
