“Don’t make excuses.  Don’t blame any other person or any other thing.  Get control of your ego.  Don’t hide your delicate pride from the truth.  Take ownership of everything in your world—the good and the bad.  Take ownership of your mistakes, take ownership of your shortfalls, take ownership of your problems, and then take ownership of the solutions that will get those problems solved.  Take ownership of your mission.  Take ownership of your job, of your team, of your future, and take ownership of your life.  And lead.  Lead.  Lead yourself, and your team, and the people in your life; lead them all.  To victory.” ~ Jocko Willink, TEDx University of Nevada
