Ownership

Imagine you’re driving your car and suddenly, it just stops. Kaput. Right in the middle of the road. You wouldn’t just leave it there and walk away, right? No way! You’d figure out how to fix it or get help to sort it out. Because it’s your car, and you gotta take care of it.

Now, think about anything you’re working on. Could be anything - fixing up something at home, a school project, or even something at work. You put in the effort, you’re trying to make it good. But then, something goes wrong. It’s not going as planned.

What’s the move? You gonna just drop it and forget about it? Nah. Just like with the car, you’ve got to deal with it. Dive back in, find out what’s messing up, and work on fixing it. It’s all about not giving up, even when it’s tempting to just walk away.

Taking charge of your stuff means sticking with it, even when it gets tough. It’s about being the person who sorts things out, not the one who just quits. So, next time you’re in a jam with something you’re working on, think about that broken-down car. Would you leave it behind, or would you do what it takes to get it going again? Remember, it’s all about stepping up and taking care of your stuff.

Clarity

It’s important to be clear about everything at work. Assuming things without really knowing can lead to big mistakes. It’s crucial to understand what everyone involved expects from you.

Know exactly what your role is and what you’re supposed to do. When things are unclear, it causes confusion and problems. So, it’s best to talk openly with your team and ask questions when you’re unsure.

Clear communication is vital. Be open and transparent, it can avoid misunderstandings and work together better.
