  • Summary

  • Own Up To It In this episode of Do The Work | Mindset Mastery… I reflect on the challenges and growth that come with self-awareness, especially as a father, husband, and businessman. As the year draws to a close, I share how self-development has played a central role in transforming my relationships and leadership. The Power of Deposits I talked about the Prime 3—a daily system I follow to make deposits into health, purpose, and profits. While all three are vital, the purpose deposit stands out as the one that has shaped my relationships and leadership the most. It’s a practice that encourages me to see myself fully, not just as a businessman, but as a father and husband striving to grow. But growth isn’t without its setbacks. I opened up about how dysfunctional behaviors, like impatience and quick outbursts, have caused tension at home and work. However, I’ve learned to catch these moments faster, take responsibility, and work through them. The journey hasn’t been easy, but it’s been transformative. A Hard-Learned Lesson I shared a recent moment with my youngest daughter, Madeline, where I let frustration get the best of me. During a family dinner celebrating my eldest daughter’s upcoming study abroad in Barcelona, I mishandled a situation involving Madeline and her phone. Instead of communicating calmly, I grabbed her phone and created unnecessary tension. Reflecting on this, I used Byron Katie's four-question framework from her book Loving What Is: Is it true? Can you absolutely know that it’s true? How do you react when you believe that thought? Who would you be without that thought? This process helped me see that my reaction stemmed not from my daughter’s behavior but from my unspoken expectations and unresolved frustrations. By owning my actions and apologizing genuinely, I rebuilt trust and repaired the moment. Applying the Lesson I encourage you to examine your own reactions and assumptions. Whether in your personal life or business, miscommunication and unspoken expectations can create unnecessary problems. By taking responsibility for our actions and processing our thoughts, we can strengthen relationships and create a better environment for those around us. Key Takeaways Growth is a daily commitment—don’t shy away from self-reflection. Address issues head-on instead of letting them linger. Own your mistakes and apologize with sincerity. Effective communication starts with setting clear expectations. Trust is built through consistent actions, not overcompensation. Reader Engagement Questions What unspoken expectations might be causing tension in your relationships? How do you typically react to frustration, and how could you handle it better? Have you ever mistaken someone’s actions for disrespect when they weren’t? What’s one step you can take today to strengthen a relationship in your life? How can you use self-reflection to grow as a parent, partner, or leader? Notable Quotes “I don’t let the small things take me over the top anymore.” “Without purpose deposits, I wouldn’t be the success I am today.” “It’s never too late to own your mistakes and rebuild trust.” “Miscommunication and unspoken expectations are often the real problem.” “We completely own the environment we’re in—we can make or break it.” Follow A.Z.
