The True Sign of a Failing Leader: Blame or Ownership
Nov 10, 2025How do you know you’ve failed as a leader?
Not when things go wrong.
That’s part of the job.
You fail when you start pointing fingers:
The economy
The team
The market
The regulations
The government
Anyone but yourself.
Here’s the truth:
Blame changes nothing.
It hands away your power.
It makes you a victim.
And when you’re a victim, you’re not leading—
you’re reacting.
Real leadership starts with ownership.
Even when it’s hard.
Even when it’s not your fault.
Because responsibility isn’t about blame.
It’s about freedom.
It’s about action.
It’s how leaders grow.
When you own the problem, you unlock the solution.
Challenges don’t break real leaders.
They reveal them.
Acting on the big thing isnโt just about reaching your goals; itโs about transforming your life, finding fulfillment, and becoming the hero you were always meant to be. Are you ready for it?
