Last week wasn’t fun.
I spent a lot of time and money preparing my new online course.
I publicly announced the launch date.
Then the day before, my programmer told me something broke.
And he had to go to a meeting but he would look at it again in the evening.
If he had time.
Well… well… well…
What could I do?
Option one: blame the programmer. He’s from California, so I could also blame Californians. Didn’t they just pass a new marijuana legalization law…?
Option two: take responsibility. I hired him. I communicated with him. I set the launch date before it was 100% ready.
If I chose option one, I’d feel better, but the situation would probably happen again.
If I chose option two, I’d feel not very good about myself, but I’d also have to examine the situation more and then make changes.
I chose option two.
On Saturday I went to an event in Prague for business owners and met a Danish guy who trains people how to hire and communicate with employees.
I think that’s something I could benefit from, don’t you?
We’re meeting on Skype on Thursday and, yeah, I’ll let you know how it goes and when the NEW launch date for “Free Time Fluent” will be.
So how does this relate at all to your English?
Responsibility.
Ask yourself this question now, Why is my English not better?
If you blame a school, or a teacher, or your age, or your brain, or the weather, you’re taking option one.
And you’ll probably be at the same level this time next year.
But what if you took option two?
What would the answer look like?
And then how would that change everything?
