Live
above
the
line.
The
line
represents
anytime
that
we
make
a
mistake.
In
that
moment
we
can
make
any
of
several
choices.
Some
of
those
choices
are
"below
the
line"
and
some
are
"above
the
line".
The
choices
that
are
below
the
line
will
strip
you
of
an
opportunity
to
learn
from
your
mistakes.
Those
behaviors
are:
- Laying blame
- Making excuses
- Denial
- Quitting
At
one
time
or
another,
we
have
all
chosen
a
behavior
that
is
below
the
line.
Each
time,
we
have
allowed
ourselves
to
be a
VICTIM.
A
victim
is
someone
who
is
not
in
control
of
their
outcomes.
Life
just
happens
"to"
a
victim
and
they
are
always
"dealing
with"
or
"coping
with"
something
that
they
refuse
take
ownership
for
creating.
The
behaviors
above
the
line
demonstrate
a
RESPONSIBLE
mindset.
They
allow
you
to
learn
from
your
mistakes.
Some
of
the
behaviors
that
are
above
the
line
are:
- Acknowledging that you have made a mistake
- Taking responsibility and ownership for your actions
- Making informed choices
- Pursuing personal freedom
Responsible
people
are
very
much
in
control
of
their
lives.
They
"handle"
situations
and
see
mistakes
as
"learning
opportunities"
for
growth
and
improvement.
As a
result,
they
exude
humility
and
develop
trusting
relationships.
These
behaviors
open
up a
wider
range
of
opportunities
and
lead
them
on a
path
to
greater
freedom.
Where
do
you
want
live?
The
choice
is
yours...every
moment
of
every
day.
