Leadership isn’t granted. It’s earned every day through disciplined thoughts and actions. Don’t mistake your title for being a true leader who inspires everyone around you to struggle towards a shared vision.

Pessimists are right, optimists make money.

Being a force of positive light in a dark world is incredibly underrated.

Instead of adding good habits, try ditching some of your bad ones this year #2026

We tend to focus on what others do poorly, and what we do well, limiting our growth. When you reverse the pattern, you see real growth in yourself and everyone around you.

The right woman can change your life. She can drive you to elevate your standards. The wrong one can have the opposite effect. Choose wisely.

The more you start to identify your ideal culture, and compare it with what exists in your organization, you will see it as the single greatest factor in your success.

If the leaders of your business are not clear and consistent on the direction of the organization, you can’t jump ship fast enough.

Something you rarely hear from business owners (who are failing) is “something bad happened and it’s all my fault”.

The blame game is easy, I’ve watched two year olds learn how to do it.

Accountability for every mistake in your company is hard.

[Christopher Hargett @chrishargettjj]

If you have an employee who you think is dumb, remember who hired them. Accountability is not a one way street.

[Christopher Hargett @chrishargettjj]

Listen, ask more questions and learn to base everything on facts. This will remove many of the assumptions and miscommunications that plague organizations.

[Christopher Hargett @chrishargettjj]

To the aspiring entrepreneurs, we all have our own challenges. But do you really think that you can manage a company or be an effective leader if you can’t manage your own health and fitness?

As soon as the people below you start to lose trust in you, you are toast…

[Christopher Hargett @chrishargettjj]

In the business world we talk about time management, but if you have time and no energy it doesn’t mean anything. Is time management then, really meant to prioritize your energy and direct towards the most important people and tasks?

[Christopher Hargett @chrishargettjj]

Your body was meant to be strong, flexible, capable of endurance and efficient movement.

Many achieve professional goals, but fail to have the health that makes their richest experiences even better.

How important is your body to you?

Or living a rich life with your family?

Would you rather:

A)Solve simple problems for a large amount of people?

B)Solve complex problems for a small number of people?

C)Solve complex problems for a large number of people?

Share what problems you solve and why!

An organization that can’t manage to have clean bathrooms, is in deep shit.

Small things amount to the massive wins you want.

When true compassion would have been to fire them so they can get on with their lives and find a culture that suits them instead of swimming against the current. The alternative is letting your “kindness” ruin everything you’ve built.

[Christopher Hargett @chrishargettjj]

No matter how much money someone can make your company, if they don’t fit the culture, they have to go. Asap.

I thought by taking my time trying to develop them and tolerate their standards I was being compassionate.

[Christopher Hargett @chrishargettjj]

One of the biggest mistakes entrepreneurs make (I’ve made), is trying to reach a goal without changing who they are.

That is the single most important thing, and if you realize it and take action, you will not believe the results.

[Christopher Hargett @chrishargettjj]

Your ceiling always boils down to how willing you are to change who you are right now into who you need to be. We are not great at self assessment so that’s an added challenge.

[Christopher Hargett @chrishargettjj]

Vulnerability is not about showing that you are weak.

It’s about showing that you are fearless when it comes to acknowledging your faults that are a result of our human nature.

It’s one of the purest forms of connection as a leader.
