Episode 803–If You Want Change, Results or Success, You Have To Take Your Own Pulse and Own It! - a podcast by Brian Basilico: Author • Speaker • Online Strategist | BaconPodcast.com

I was a control freak, and would normally work 12 to 16 hours a day, 6 to 7 days a week to do it all myself. I was successful at it, but at a cost. That cost was having a life.
As I walked Layla (my dog) and ran on the Greenway by our apartment in North Carolina, I saw this one red straw sitting on the pavement, day after day after day! Surely it had to bother them as much as it did for me? But alas, it just sat there for almost four weeks.The bottom line is that if you want a change, you have to take personal responsibility for the activity, decision, and process.
When it came to my control freak ways, I thought people would respect my work ethic and results, but in the end, It really did not matter what others thought. I was holding myself back and it took an outsider (my coach) to get my life back in sync and shock me into reality and rhythm again.Now I can see that we all need a device (like my Apple Watch) that tells you when you have an issue and to take personal responsibility.
“Life is what happens when you're busy making other plans.”
– John LennonIn this episode, I will discuss how life events can help teach you how to become more successful, but sometimes, you need a little outside perspective.Want To See How To Market BETTER? - Click Here
