When you’re looking to improve some aspect of your work, it’s essential to understand that until you can take ownership of the current situation, progress will be difficult.

You might not be entirely responsible for your current less-than-ideal circumstances, but you almost certainly have some level of responsibility.

You can blame bad luck, algorithms, or even your audience when your work isn’t resonating with it’s intended audience. But without addressing your role as the single source from which the work flows, finding the problems, let alone the solutions will be difficult.

Taking ownership is about taking a hard look at yourself even when you’re not sure that you’ll like what you see, and accepting it.

Then commiting to do better.

To take ownership of creating the problems is to take ownership of creating the solutions.

Every Sunday I publish an exclusive article on my newsletter that hopefully provides a new perspective, encouragement, and maybe even some occasional wisdom.

It’s something I’m proud to create and I’d be honoured to deliver it to you. If you’d like me to share it with you please subscribe here.
