This is something that everyone needs to hear.
I think so too. Thank you
This is something that more people need to do! I'm so sick of people these days just wanting to point fingers and not own up to mistakes.
@A J You don't always have to be a dick.
They won't listen. They don't even have the balls to watch the video to the end.
I wish young men were required to listen to things like this from Mr Ryan and men like him. Hell I’m 41 and I get tremendous benefit from it.
One 90s stand up comedian said... excuses are like assholes... everyone has one. Thx for the videos.
I find it fascinating how things that were common sense 20 years ago aren't so common anymore
Sad but very very true.
It’s seems as though common sense doesn’t exist with people today. It’s all about projecting blame
Facinating?
Ya you can thank every kid below 35 all of them are losers who needed second place trophies

Would be great to enter but I dont do Instagram. Only YT for me. That wont stop me from watching the best channel on YT. Your content is off the chain. All is well, I hope!
Hooyah
I closed my Twitter Acct , FB acct and thus my Instagram ( its owned by FB) over 2 years ago ..... I needed to unplug from the socials 🤷🏻♂️ but I gave you my email and signed up for your newsletter, I love the content, love the messages you always put out , I been watching ya since the TNQ podcast appearances , Shawn keep hitting it out of the park bro, love what you're doing and will always support 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🦅🦅🦅 #Netflix is Next
But shawwwwn....I refuse to start social media accounts until I retire....especially due to my job and the current climate of my job......heheh keep up the good videos.
As a carpenter/contractor for almost 5 decades I say you can tell a good carpenter not so much by what they do right but what they do when things don't go right.
I told my kids if you want to be treated with respect always act in a respectable manner. Thank you for verbalizing these concepts. I really enjoy your videos.
@B LT They fix it quickly, take care of the problem like it never happened because they have the knowledge. When things go wrong money starts blowing out the window.
@B LT I got into it after about 1 1/2 of wandering & odd jobs after getting out if the Marine Corps in '72. First day on the job as laborer on a framing crew I knew it was a calling for me. How old are you?
Spot on 👏🏼👏🏼
This man constantly drop knowledge gems 💎 we are lucky to have a man of his stature take time to speak to us.... Thank you Shawn Ryan.
100% and we should support this platform any way you can... the truth is being stolen from us by mainstream media. Men like this are rare in 2020.
Sadly these gems are needed. Hell I like hearing them as a friendly reminder.
Pride myself on my honesty which includes admitting I fucked up.
I admit when I'm wrong. You can't learn without making mistakes.
If you aren't fucking up often, admitting it, and learning from it/fixing it... you aren't growing...
@@deinos2114 true, but common sense goes a long way
I made a mistake once, when I was 12. Man enough to admit it.
😂
@David Pryor and that's the sad truth
I made a mistake... and I’m having a real hard time forgiving myself for it.
Amen!!! My boss just told me less than 12 hours ago, “ man put your self in my position, if someone tells you the truth on how they screwed up and it’s a little or a lot wrong.. wouldn’t you rather have some workin for you who was gonna tell you the truth rather that someone who was just gonna lie to you”?? Made me feel like I was secure.. I’ve always believed in ownership, it’s way more liberating than lying. Is it easy? No.. but way easier to sleep with a clear mind than having to build on a lie..
Thank you for passing on your wisdom. I appreciate it. We appreciate you.
I’ve sent this to both my sons. Great message.
Going through some stuff right now and this video could not have come at a better time, thank you.
loving these recent everyday advice ones. Thank you for this!
You're so welcome!
Always hold myself accountable period I know my personal powers and make things happen ..
That is a good way to be.
Same. I used to be homeless, and it taught me that I find myself exactly where I put myself. I became wildly successful, because I always remembered that I had the wheel. I would come up with excuses, but a few minutes later, I would recognize it was all bull crap and that I just didn't want to admit that I screwed up. The more resources you have, and the larger your sphere of influence, the more mistakes you will make and the bigger they will become. It's all about how fast you admit it and how fast you recover. Some people take months or years to recover and never improve. One day, they find they are old, poor and full of regrets.
So i have just admitted to a mistake i kept to myself for three years , so much time and energy spent keeping it to myself and regretting it etc. I cant begin to explain how keeping things to yourself literally kills your actual soul. Especially if you are a honest, good person. As this guy says, just take ownership and deal with it.
He right there is very few that own up too anything anymore !
true words like these are seldom spoken. I personally can relate how excuses are the most disrespectful and dishonorable response to a gross failure. to just be honest and accept that you fucked up is way easier than to make the excuse and lie to one's self. and to be honest destroys less loved ones along the way.
Man so glad I found your site brother. Real words for real people . Stand tall. Be a man and damn sure take responsibility. So glad for my time in the military. They took a smart ass kid and taught him howto be a man and and much wiser person now later in life. USN. 74/80. GOD BLESS AMERICA.🇺🇸
I really needed to hear that, man. Plain english. I really appreciate that you take the time from your day to try to help other people. And total strangers at that. Thank you, Mr. R.
Self Accountability!... A lost art that's been replaced with finger pointing and shit talking to hide an individuals mistakes. Thank you for posting, such a simple but necessary topic.
Dude i have had other tradesmen "stop pointing at any non perfecions to the customer" yeah opposing side of the argument. A guy told me "perfect is good done is better" not advice i would give a hack though.
💯🙌
Well stated
People make careers because of fingerpointing and shit talking, although they have no other skill than this
DAMN STRAIGHT!!
Also NEVER throw someone else "under the bus" for a mistake you have made.
If someone else has made a mistake (that actually IS a mistake and NOT just piss-poor work) & you can correct it,
then correct it! (And no one else needs to know about it)!
just as important to never throw others under the bus... always make sure to let others know how valuable others were to the effort. If something goes right I ALWAYS go out of my way to tell people who helped and how critical they were to the outcome.
I LOVE this. It’s a great kick in the ass vid. Unfortunately, I think a lot of people who need to suck it up and do this are not the type to watch this video. Great content!
You're most likely right.
Couldn’t have seen this at a better time. Just lost the girl of my dreams thanks Shawn for the advice.
Really good. Where I work no one admits making mistakes. Sgt. Schultz is alive & well here. I was raised to be honest & admit to doing wrong, even if it was unintentional. You're right, Shawn, it's a rare character trait today.
I was taught when asked “what’s the problem here” proper response “no excuse sir”
I needed to hear this today. Thanks man.
Thank you for your wisdom.
Any time!
Speak the truth brother! 👍
This is the same shit dad’s are responsible for teaching their children, it’s sad that it isn’t taught at home often!
TAKE OWNERSHIP. I'm in 100%
Everybody makes mistakes. Mistakes can be forgiven if you admit to them. My father taught me that your best teacher is your last mistake.
You are so right. Cheers
Man, I was sort of waiting for this video, I can't agree any more, it's just not possible..... I take a lot of pride in the fact I take all responsibility when I mess up, but I also take PRIDE in when I make the right call or choice. Respect and responsibility go hand in hand. after watching your vids for a while now, I respect you, not even knowing you, just by the content you put out and your values as perceived from your vid. You sir are a legit human being whom is grounded and should be listened to as a role model.
Shawn I learned at an early age don't screw up an apology with an excuse.
My managers at work always look surprised when I go up to one of them and go, "hey _____, I was doing _____ and I made a mistake. How do I proceed from here?".
I’m almost 26 now. When I was 18 I had every excuse in the book down to a science. How to implement it and utilize it to my advantage. To get out of something or whatever the case is.
However it’s only been 8 years, but I’ve done as much as I can to admit I’m wrong. To own up to things and not only promise that it won’t happen again. But to go out of my way to ensure it doesn’t happen again.
It was extremely hard at first. To admit I was wrong about anything. Now I’ve been telling myself that it’s fine and that people would respect you more if you just admit it. No matter how shitty of a thing it was. Just own up to it.
Once I finally grasped the idea of doing that and actually implementing that in my life I felt a whole assload of weight get lifted off my shoulders. Like I don’t need to keep up with lies or reasons. Just admit it. Learn from it and move on. There are way more important things to be focusing on.
With that being said, Shawn you are a fantastic individual and I am grateful to learn from you. Even something that I thought I know how to do, I continue to learn. 👍
Thank you for taking the time to write this. Cheers 🍻
Congratulations. On the change.
Respect is earned, not given. Sorry is for Funerals, Apologies are what is needed if you fuck up, and Sorry isn't an apology.
New vigilance elite video!! Time to eat my burrito and watch
#lunchbreak
Hell yeah!
Saying "I fucked up & it won't happen again" yes, it means you're taking responsibility but the bigger part is the "it won't happen again" that's where people struggle! Great vids Shawn!
Well said Sir
Every mistake is a new beginning
Personal accountability is an extremely rare character trait anymore. Most will either make up some weak assed excuse or deflect the blame entirely, usually by trying to put that blame back on you. Ben Franklin said "Never ruin an apology with an excuse."
Just raise your hand and say "Yup... that was me."
Hard lesson to learn.
The sooner the better.
Excatly, Ty for sharing brother. Ever so true, a warrior takes responsibly for his or her actions, no matter how trivial the action is. Much blessings too you & yours.🇺🇸💪👊
Excuses are lies wrapped up in reasons. - Howard Wright
Some of the best lessons in life come from your F-ups. I've owned every single one of mine and will continue to do so.
Bro please keep these coming!!
The excuse fairy belongs with the good idea fairy.
Just finished the video. Such great advice we all need to be reminded of.
What do you think about taking ownership for someone else’s mistake? An example of this would be in a relationship where your partner may have been completely at fault but you bite the bullet to start the healing process? Interested in hearing your thoughts.
Every excuse is to cover my pride there I said it.
I had to do this at work recently it was embarrssing in front of all my bosses like 8 guys. It was a safety issue i dont know how it was taken after i left the room but hopefully it worked out in my favor.
People always look at me funny when I know I fucked up. And they ask why. Or what was the excuse. And I tell them I don’t give excuses. I know I did it and I will learn from it. Was taught that in the Army. And it still stands strong in the way I live my life.
Absolutely true - It's simple for those of us with integrity. Man up, own it, and move on. I question the integrity of those who gave this video a 'thumbs down.' They're weak.
After 21 years in the AF, I’ve been at my civilian job for over a year, and the reason I’ve been getting promoted is “you’re not afraid to fuck up, and when you do, you own and move on”. My bosses words, not mine.
Awesome.
No offense bro. This is the same material jocko and other honorable members of our society have been putting out for years. Would definitely like to hear some fresh new material. None of this doomsday prepping bullshit. Living off the grid bullshit. Being accountable for our actions bullshit etc. still appreciate the material no doubt, hard work and passion. Feel like the seals have some gold advice and first hand experience stories hidden somewhere. Like how to grind through a narly situation without sleep for days. Pure grit and drive through a shitty situation.
People don't take responsibility because when you admit to doing one thing wrong, then those same authority figure's will try and blame you, and try to force you to take responsibility for other peoples mistakes, including their own. It can keep you trapped in a sort of slavery for ever. So you have to take responsibility for your part in it, but you don't have to be the patsy for other peoples mistakes. you have to Disect the problem and take responsibility for your part in it. Not every one else's.
For example: your not responsible for your spouse cheating on you. You might be responsible for being an emotionally distant jerk, and that certainly added to the situation. And then you both have to own up to your own mommy and daddy issue's that caused you both to be that emotionally bankrupt in the first place, but in a situation like the example that I just named, both people have some ownership to take.
Basically, people run away so that they don't have to be some one else's patsy in some situations. Also, sometimes we have a good boy/ good girl complex. We just can't admit to ourselves that sometimes in life we messed up and that we might not always be the "good guy". In short, you do have to be kind to yourself and give yourself permission to fail, because we all will anyways.
I do agree with this guy. though. In most situations, just suck it up and take your lumps and then move on. It does make you a stronger and tougher person. When you focus on the benefits that come with taking ownership of your life, Then you will have the courage to do it a lot more often, You will become a lot more Braver when it comes to taking responsibility for mistakes in life. The more you practice at having courage, the better you get at it.
How about “im sorry, I fucked up”. It’s almost my mantra....
...no more words needed! Thanks for sharing your thoughts
Good luck with women apologizing or accepting ownership for screw ups.
God damnit mr Shawn stop teaching me so many life lessons 😂 keep up the fire content sir
This kind of thing used to be common practice. Sadly it isn’t and our society is so much poorer for it.
Boss and I talked about this today...an hour after I had to own up to some shite. Ain't life a trip?
That’s damn right..man up✌️
We've left a high-trust society, which came out of the work by the monasteries in the middle ages, and have descended into a no-trust society. Certain players benefit from that devolution, but as your previous video gets into, find your core group of trusted people and work from there.
Keep throwing it down
I’m old now, but back in high school my football coach had a mottos for the team. No Excuses, No Regrets. I live that to this day and I’m passing it on to my son.
I'm at a crossroads in my life and your last few videos have resonated with me in many ways. Thanks alot man!
You're very welcome
Be strong. We've all been there.
I needed this to get off my ass today...preciate it
Not to steal your thunder Shawn. But Jocko wrote a book about this "extreme ownership". Taking responsibility is a lesson in humility
I enjoy these quick hit videos. Messages thst are straight and to the point. Easy to share in short attention span society.
Thank you for these they’re helpful keep them up pal!
I'm loving these life advice shortie videos, these are awesome Shawn keep them coming.
@@americanpatriot6918 I appreciate his transparency. There is not enough of that today.
Yes! Thank you!
Love you view on life
I learned this very quickly in the academy! Like if you know what Excuses are. VE4L!!!
Much Respect from Northern AZ🙏🏼🇺🇸🙏🏼
Amen Shawn! Keep preaching honesty and leadership!!
Wish these words of wisdom would reach everyone including Presidents
There is a fine line between excuse and explanation, I want to know why things don't work.
...tornou se muito fácil pedir desculpa....é uma palavra vulgar infelizmente
For everybody has it and I get I got fucked over with the government. Everybody got the hands in the fucking part of me and Travis. Karen, Bill Jack, and whisper everybody. Everybody got the handle in the pocket except me and Travis.
I like these series of videos. The real talk Shawn does is like a wake up call for me
Own your mistakes indeed. I own my mistakes. Once in high school, I got the due dates for a couple assignments mixed up and got a 0 on one of them. Three weeks ago, I left coins in my pocket while doing laundry and had to get a new washer. And yesterday, I accidentally stepped on some man's foot in a crowd. But I apologized---and owned said mistakes.
Of course, people have "excuses" when they're returning shit. Besides, they're not really "excuses" anyway. They're REASONs. Big difference. And, you know why they have those reasons? Because the next fucking question(s) from the store employee is/are, "Why are you returning this, is it broken, doesn't fit, etc?" Everybody knows this.
ACCOUNTABILITY....something definitely missing from society today. Rather than own up to shit, they spin the “excuse wheel”. That and the competition to see who is the biggest “victim “. I call bullshit!
Who is owning up to spelling your name wrong in the intro? Seriously though, great message.
Hello Shawn....nice presentation: sounds pretty Catholic. Seems like you had the right upbringing....you're talking about Confession and acknowledging one's own guilt for screwing up. God Bless either your parents, the nuns and priests who taught and formed you...or both.
Deo Gratia!
Shawn, Thanks man. I sincerely appreciate the knowledge you pass along. God Bless you, Warrior.
EVERYONE::: This man needs some major recognition.
Yo Shawn, the fact you define the word excuse is primitive!
Take a moment and think if you can define half the words you use. Educate yourself folks, we’re all guilty in lacking there.
Right on man. I need that reminder. Excuses suck, especially mine! The number one thing that stuck with me reading Jocko's book "Extreme Ownership".
If you can't be honest with yourself...
Dropping some truth these last few days.
Thanks mandingo!
Liberty makes, at the very minimum, 2 demands of us: 1-Responsibility and 2-Accountability.
👍💯
Say sorry he’s gonna say all possible or Ronnie did this Ronnie did that blah blah blah blah everything just like Jack it’s all fucking bullshit people I don’t need to work😊
Who are you looking at so intensely when you do these?... Griffin? Your wife? An alpaca? The wall? A teddy bear? Chris Stapleton?
Just something I’ve wondered the last few videos. Hell I’ll come sit over there while I sip an Old Fashioned and just listen.
Amen to this Shawn my old NCO told me if I ever screw something just state " I screw up and it won't happen again". Don't make up any dumb answer, because they have heard it before...man up!
