Be a player, not a victim

I agree with Sheryl Sandberg, the COO of Facebook, who stresses the importance of taking responsibility.   

I’m not late because there was traffic, I’m late because I didn’t leave early enough to account for the fact that there was traffic.

The project didn’t finish not because my colleague didn’t do his part, the project didn’t get finished because I didn’t set up a team where my colleague wanted to do his part.

Taking full responsibility is one of the most empowering things you can do!
