MESS

Taking personal responsibility also means doing what you need to do to own up, suck it up and clean up that stinkin’ mess you just splattered all over your life.

“Mistakes happen. Big, dumb, stupid, lazy mistakes. Fat frickin’ messes that you will regret for a very long time. And no affirmation or predeterministic thinking will change the fact that you’ve done gone and fucked up. And when you can get that real about it, you don’t need to waste energy protecting your ego or pouring on the sweetener. You can use that energy to clean up the mess and love yourself while you’re doing it.”
