There is two ways you can build the biggest building in the city...
1. You spend all your time ripping down the other buildings so yours is the biggest.
OR
2. Build the biggest fu***ng building!
The decision is yours, are you going to spend all your time tearing other people down so you're 'the man.' Or, are you going to keep your head down on your own tasks and just build the biggest building.
The choice is yours, what will you choose?

Two pieces of advice I would give to everyone, no matter what profession you do...
1. No one gives a f**k about you!
2. Everything is your fault!
The moment you start taking responsibility for everything is the moment you put your ego and arrogance aside, and commit to growing.
How many times have you heard someone blame others for their own mistakes? Or, How many times have you seen a boss throw an employee under the buss and say it's "all your fault"?
Now, how many of those times do you respect that same person?
Responsibility is hard, it's vulnerability but it's also strength and the seed to growth!
My challenge to you is to start taking responsibility for things and watch how you develop into the person you need to be!

Do or die...
When approaching work, mindset is the most important. Some people loath the time they spend working and others are grateful for the opportunity to have a job. Which ever one you are doesn't matter for the next point because if you don't do it, the job doesn't get done!
Create a sense of urgency and become independent with your work, you either do it or you die, period!

There is time for compliments and flower petals and there is also time to just get the work done!
Do or die, get it done!

How many times do we wait on other people before we can progress?
How many times do we allow others to take control so we have someone to blame when things don't go well?

Take back the responsibility, own your s**t and do it yourself!
