Summary

I think that if you make everything your fault (without beating yourself up, of course), then you are also the person with the power to change things around.


When you hold yourself accountable, it leads to solutions; it helps you maintain a position of control instead of being a victim. So many of you right now – in this exact second – are unhappy because you’re pointing fingers and feeling a lack of control.


The lack of accountability leads to so much worse. If we can prop up accountability instead of shying away from it, we will be happier.


Enjoy! Let me know what you thought.

complete and utter lack of accountability.

We are now in the finger pointing generation. It's your fault. It's their fault.

0:28.0

This institution's fault, it's this human being's fault. People think

technology's changing us. I think it's exposing us. This thing is your gateway to

get out of the thing that you complain about. But people would rather complain

about how it is than put in the work.

When you go into blame game, you are vulnerable. People would rather default

0:50.6

into why they can't than putting in the actions that allow them to can't.

I am remarkably stunned by the lack of accountability in our society.

1:00.5

Do you now liberating it is when you realize everything's your fault? It gets real

1:05.0

fucking good out of here. Something I've been thinking a lot about is I'm asking

1:08.6

people to be more accountable, but I have to be careful because a lot of people's

1:12.4

version of intaking accountability is beating themselves up. Just stop judging

1:17.0

yourself. Everybody else is doing it for you already. Everybody just wants a

1:20.6

point thing. There's 24 fucking hours a day and tell you why everybody else is

1:24.6

doing things wrong. The system, that person, this just fucking firing

1:28.6

fingers 24-7 without a thumb and a mirror ever. Figure out what your fucking

1:33.6

thing is and stop making fucking bullshit excuses. I just want it so bad for you.

1:37.6

I want it bad for you. Zero accountability. It has been completely eliminated.

1:41.6
