- Hi, I'm Myers Barnes and I'm a new home sales strategist.
What I want to address to today are excuses.
So what's an excuse?
Excuses are reasons you create in your own mind
to avoid the reality that you've failed
to hit the mark in some way.
An excuse is just some justification
that you believe gets you off the hook
for whatever action you chose, including inaction.
Yet you need to cease with all these excuses
and instead accept accountability.
And whatever reasons you come up with,
the end result is the same.
You probably failed to hit the mark.
And when you fail to hit the mark
that's when the excuses kick in.
It was George Washington Carver who said:
if not for the creativity of an excuse,
man would actually succeed.
Now I need you to follow that thought
with another quote from Emerson who said:
there are a thousand excuses for failure,
but never one good reason.
And that's where personal accountability kicks in.
You stop making excuses and accept responsibility.
We all need to be more accountable
for our choices and our actions.
And we shouldn't waste energy seeking excuses
but rather learning from our failures and our setbacks
and applying the lessons so we don't repeat them.
I admit my in personal life there are times
when personally I feel like that I've done good enough
but not achieved the result I was seeking.
And at that moment in time, guilty as charged.
I would start making up excuses.
But then that little voice inside my head shouts at me
and I have to shake off this rationalization
that my mind is forming.
And I choke back that excuse that was about
to come out of my mouth.
Instead I try to refocus on what I can do better
in the situation and ask questions
like what have I failed to explore?
Or what different approach is worth pursuing?
What should I have done differently?
I know that the outcomes are the results of effort.
And if I want better results I need to change my tactics
because things may not getting better
but my approach, my attitude, and actions
can get better and so can yours.
So let me repeat what Emerson said.
There are a thousand excuses for failure
yet there's never one good reason.
So let's all shake off our excuses.
Thanks.
I'm Myers Barnes and I look forward
to our next time together.
