Speaker: What do you call an underground group of solar professionals on a mission to create a more sustainable world?
Speaker: We call ourselves solopreneurs.
Speaker: And while some might call us crazy, foolish, and dissatisfied with the status quo, we're the ones taking action to create a better future for ourselves and the world.
Speaker: Solopreneur is dedicated to give you, the solar professional, the tools, skills, technology, and mentorship to take the industry by storm and sell more solar with less effort.
Speaker: We are solopreneurs and this is our story.
Speaker: Here's the deal.
Speaker: Not everything that's happened in your life is your fault.
Speaker: I know it's a popular thing to say with a lot of the entrepreneur crowd, right?
Speaker: Hey, you're at fault for everything, right?
Speaker: And it's truthfully just not there, right?
Speaker: Circumstances happen, bad things happen to people, and those aren't always their fault.
Speaker: But the thing that I want you to remember is everything is your responsibility.
Speaker: And when you take responsibility for everything, that gives you so much confidence because you now have the ability to control every outcome.
Speaker: So something bad happens to you.
Speaker: You grew up in a bad, abusive household, right?
Speaker: That necessarily wasn't your fault.
Speaker: You didn't choose your parents.
Speaker: But it's your responsibility to learn how to deal with that abusive relationship.
Speaker: It's your responsibility to learn how to help that propel you to impact more people and help them, right?
Speaker: It's not your fault that your company gave you bad leads or they don't have good training, but it's your responsibility to learn how to train yourself.
Speaker: I had to do the same thing, guys.
Speaker: So, responsibility is the core of confidence.
Speaker: When you are responsible for everything in your life, you never blame anyone else for your circumstance.
Speaker: You have such a sense of control and power.
Speaker: It's insane.
Speaker: I can't even describe it, okay?
Speaker: So develop the habit right now.
Speaker: If you catch yourself blaming someone else, complaining about something else, take responsibility for it.
Speaker: Anything.
Speaker: If somebody runs into your car and you get in a car crash, take responsibility for it.
Speaker: Yeah, you can blame them because it's all their fault or you can say, hey,
Speaker: I should have left a little earlier.
Speaker: Maybe I should have drove in the other lane, right?
Speaker: That gives you in a position of control and leverage.
Speaker: The other way is just a victim mindset where it's just complaining and there's nothing you can do about it and you just feel bad about yourself.
Speaker: It doesn't matter, guys.
Speaker: I'd rather feel better about myself and take responsibility for someone else's mistake and have full control than feel horrible, woe is me, pity party over here, right?
Speaker: Top producers assume responsibilities.
