It means you blame nobody for anything. You point fingers at no one. You find no fault. You feel no guilt. You simply own your choices and every outcome of those choices—good and bad. Personal accountability is the secret weapon of every successful sales professional. It is the secret weapon of Where Winners Live coauthor Dave Porter, who became the owner and CEO of Baystate Financial Services at age 35 and grew it into a $100 million-a-year business over the next 15 years. It is the secret weapon of Where Winners Live coauthor Linda Galindo, who transformed herself from the self-proclaimed Queen of Victims into an entrepreneur, business coach, consultant, and speaker whose typical audience numbers 500 or more. Written in a no-excuses tone and filled with illustrative personal stories and practical exercises, Where Winners Live outlines the non-negotiable behaviors of high-performing salespeople: responsibility, self-empowerment, and ownership of results. Embrace a mindset of 100 percent personal accountability and you will:
