GRASP for Business, Part 2: Responsibility, From Victim to Victor

For thirty-eight years, a man lay beside a pool waiting for someone to help him. When Jesus asked, "Do you want to get well?" he didn't say yes. He gave an excuse. What if the story you've been telling yourself is the very thing keeping you stuck?

In Part 2 of the GRASP for Business series, Tara LaFon Gooch unpacks the second pillar of the GRASP Method™: Responsibility. Drawing on Brian Tracy's philosophy that you are 100% responsible for everything you are, have, and become, Jim Rohn's wisdom on the wind and the seasons, and scripture from Genesis to the pool of Bethesda, Tara reveals why blame hands your power away and ownership takes it back.

You'll learn:

Why the very first conversation after the first sin was a blame game, and how we still play it in business How Stephen Covey's "response-ability" gives you power in the gap between what happens and what you do next Why victimhood can feel comfortable, and how fear of who we'll be after our healing keeps us by the pool What the parable of the talents teaches about money, fear, and knowing your numbers A four-step responsibility audit you can use in your business this week

Imagine leading a business where you stop waiting for the wind to change and start adjusting your sails. Where "That's on me" becomes a source of power, not shame, and where God can trust you with more because you've been faithful with what's already in your hands.
