President Truman had a sign on his desk :
The buck stops here
He knew there was no one to pass the problem too. He was the president, with more power than most of us. It all ended with him.
Thinking about it; we’re kind of like presidents or CEO’s of our own lives. We can create or destroy / do whatever we want…
What if we embodied the buck stops here mentality? We know we don’t control external things or situations. We know that we only have a handful of things we truly control like our attitudes, how we respond to situations … and that’s enough.
It ends with us, we can’t pass the buck to anyone else.
