Little lies. We have all told them right? But what do they mean and why is it important to claim responsibility for our actions? Explore this topic with Tonya now.

IN THIS EPISODE

0:19 Do you ever lie? Like a little bit? Something you tell to make someone feel better or soften the blow. Think of things that you'd tell your boss when you get to work late.

1:08 Now, if you have a team, children or people who lie. Wouldn't you rather have them own it? 

1:45 The truth is always the better way to go. My mom was the queen of elaborate stories. I remember her calling into work and told them that I had a sprained ankle. We went to the doctor's office so that her boss could hear the PA system over the phone. 

3:07 What that was doing her was reinforcing the behavior that lies equal wins and that not taking responsibility for your action is a positive thing. The problem is that when you aren't taking responsibility for your actions, you're giving up control over the results. In these cases, when you subscribe to the fact that it's not your fault.

4:24 In these cases, when you subscribe to the fact that it's not your fault, your subconscious believes that nothing is your fault. You're not responsible for the good things either. You have no way of knowing if your good luck will last and you start to create patterns of programmed sabotage. You will repeat them until you start to show up in the present moment. You become responsible for your behaviors. Apologize when you mess up. I told you a few episodes ago of my mess up and I had to apologize. But when I mess up and take responsibility from them, I've learned something from them.

6:55 You are deliberately putting yourself in a funk and lowering your vibe if you continue to not take responsibility for your mess ups. If this is a habit of yours, it used to be a habit of mine, I've learned to overcome it. And I love the results. Watch what you're doing over the next few days, what's your knee-jerk reaction when you make a mistake? Watch the way it changes the way those around you react. It will blow your mind.
