FROM NOW ON, accept complete, 100 percent respon- sibility for everything you are and everything you will ever be. Refuse to make excuses or to blame other peo- ple for your problems or shortcomings. Stop com- plaining about things in your life that you are not happy about. Refuse to criticize other people for any- thing. You are responsible.

always self-employed. You are always the president of your own personal service corporation, no matter where you might be working at the moment.
When you see yourself as self-employed, you de- velop an entrepreneur mentality, the mentality of highly independent, self-responsible, self-starting individuals. Instead of waiting for things to happen, you make things happen. You see yourself as the boss of your own life. You see yourself as completely in charge of your physical health, your financial well- being, your career, your relationships, your lifestyle, your home, your car, and every other element of your existence. This is the mind-set of the self-made mil- lionaire.
Self-responsible people are intensely result ori- ented. They always take high levels of initiative. They volunteer for assignments and are always asking for more responsibility. As a result, they become the most valuable and respected people in their organizations. They continually prepare themselves for positions of higher authority and responsibility in the future. You should do the same.
Here’s a question: If you were president of your company for a day or were completely responsible for results where you work, what one change would you enact immediately?
Whatever it is, write it down, make a plan, and be- gin implementing it today. This action alone could change your life.
