Learning to Take Accountability and Control of Your Life
Consequences aren’t necessarily negative; we can learn a lot from the results of our actions. By acknowledging that and taking accountability for our decisions, we not only learn from our mistakes but empower ourselves.
In this episode, Robert Hunt and Salem Thyne join us to talk about “Nobody Cares… Until You Do,” the book they co-authored, where they share stories about themselves, two ordinary guys who embraced the power of accountability.
Salem is an Entrepreneur, CEO, Author, and Host of The CEO Tip Of The Day Podcast. Robert is an Executive Coach and Partner at Renaissance Executive Forums, where he leads CEO Groups, Advisory Boards, Peer Groups, and Mastermind Groups in Dallas.
They shared the story of how they met and why they decided to write the book, the book’s premises and core message, and some practical actions from their book to day-to-day life. Robert and Salem also explained how their book can help gamers develop their gaming skills, how to look at preparation for tournaments slightly differently, why it’s crucial to avoid falling into victim mentality mode, and so much more.
