A batch of the best highlights from what Miroslav's read, .
Tajemství činu spočívá v tom, že k němu přikročíme!“ připomíná francouzský filozof Alain.
An owner will assume any personality in order to keep his commitments. He will be who he needs to be. A victim will break any commitment to keep his personality intact. They live in the “I’ve got to be me” syndrome. To an owner, commitment is created. To a victim, commitment is a feeling that is fleeting and untrustworthy. Owners convert problems into projects. Living with exciting projects is more fun and empowering than living with depressing problems. You can take ownership right now. It’s there for you in the act of taking. Being an owner is not a permanent personality or characteristic that you have or don’t have. It’s a state of being you enter or don’t enter. No one has greater claim to it than you do. You can start by relating to your current problem as a project that you’re happy to be engaged with. You will have a totally different experience. Ownership is not something you learn; it’s something you practice. But when will you get time to practice? The great soccer star Pelé was once asked that same question. Given his hectic schedule, when does he have time to fit soccer practice in? “Everything is practice,” said Pelé. When you get this distinction between owner and victim, you too, will see that everything you encounter today is an opportunity for practice. By choosing to take ownership and responsibility, you’ll break out of the victim’s circle and get on the fast track to the results you want. You will thrill to the power of a truly straight line.
