The story of 4 people

Do you take full responsibility for everything that you say and do?

In other words, are you in ownership of your life?

If not, then who is?

I came across this piece the other day at my mother-in-laws. I have been unable to find the source.

This is the story of four people Everybody, Somebody, Anybody and Nobody

When there was an important job to be done Everybody was sure that Somebody would do it. Anybody could have done it, but Nobody did it. When Nobody did it, Everybody got angry, because it was Somebody’s job. Everybody thought Somebody would do it, but Nobody realised that Nobody would do it…so it ended up with Everybody blaming Somebody when Nobody did what Everybody could have done in the first place.

Action – Allocate tasks to Somebody so Everybody is clear who is responsible for delivery.

With best wishes
