Here's the thing about responsibility: It's all about
being able to respond and take control. The moment you
start pointing fingers, blaming others, or making excuses
for what‘s going on in your life, you've just handed over
the reins. You've given up your ability to respond. When
you start playing the blame game, that's it. You're stuck.
You might not realize it right then and there, but you're
stuck like a fly on flypaper.
"Sorry I‘m late for work. It was the traffic, the
weather, or my alarm!"
No it wasn‘t. You didn‘t plan properly. If you blame
the traffic, the weather, or your ex, what‘s going to
happen next time?
At times, when we're stuck in a mindset where we
believe things won't improve for us, we tend to blame
ourselves and adopt a victim mentality. This traps us in
feelings of unworthiness and perpetuates the victim
mindset, making it impossible to find a way forward on a
Flowpath.
