So there's this great old statement and it goes something like this. It's easier to leave than it is to be left

Think about it. The person that says I'm ending this relationship. They've got a plan

They've got a commitment. They've got something they want to do. Maybe they're running from something more than likely

They're going somewhere where the person that is quote unquote being left

It's really like wait a minute. What did I do wrong? Can I get better and they usually go in their head?

But you know what? It's easier to leave than it is to be left. I call BS

The person that is left then has to ask themselves, what am I committed to?

That's one thought but the second thing they've got to say to themselves is the

acknowledgement that we don't own anybody

Your kids are going to go away to college

You're going to hire someone and you know what?

They're going to leave what I'm constantly reminding myself is

People are doing the best they can with what they got and we owe no one

Everyone's job on this planet in my opinion is to figure out who you are

What you're committed to and go do that

So for you and I as business leaders, what do we need to do and power the people around us and power our kids to go on

Do the best they can our teammates like Brian behind the camera to go be the best Brian he can be

So my advice for you is stop taking it personally if a lead doesn't call you back

If a person decides to go dark on you or someone on your team decides to leave

Keep moving forward you do you they're going to do them and everybody's going to be happy make sense
