I once heard my brother use this phrase, and it stuck with me.

“One car, one driver.”

There can be many opinions on how to drive and in which direction, but ultimately, the responsibility lies with one driver.

This thought is not only useful in an automobile; it has much wider implications. Education. Career. Endeavors. How you choose to interact with the world.

In the car that is your life — no matter the number of passengers — you’re the driver. Own that responsibility, and relish in the opportunity.
