"It's not my fault."

That's what Ellen, a customer of mine, he said. She believed it, too. Her mother and her boyfriend had all their problems. If only they behave differently, his life would be perfect.

As a counselor, I hear all the time. "If my husband / wife / mother / father / manager / Employee, he would do things differently. "

Unfortunately, even after several sessions, I could not get Ellen to see how they did that all their problems. It was like a big conspiracy against him, and nobody understood.

Ellen situation which, although serious, is unique. Many of us, instead of dealing with our responsibilities, choosing almost anything because of our failures.

You're too old. You're black. You're white. That was abused boy. His parents were poor role models. You grew up in poverty. You have some physical disabilities.

According to Barbara Tuchman, "The numbers of need in our society we have today are people who accept responsibility. "

Let me ask you a question: Do you think you could take action in the next 2 weeks to make your life much worse?

Could you then take certain measures in the next 2 weeks to make your life better?

If you answered yes to these questions, then you are acknowledging that you are responsible for your own life. Yesterday ended last night. You can not change. All you can do is deal with it.

You have admitted that no matter how good or bad your current situation is that there is no action specific you can take to make it better or worse.

Regardless of how many people argue on the contrary, everything is an option.

All.

If I choose to eat too much, then I decided to weigh too much. And if I choose to emphasize depressing thoughts, I chose to be depressed.

The events that happen outside of us only have so much power as we choose to give. It's never the events themselves are important. Rather, it is how we choose to perceive them.

Shakespeare said "Nothing is neither good nor bad, but thinking makes it so."

I read about a study done in 300 leaders of world class. They were people like Gandhi, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, and Mother Teresa. A total of 75% of those who were raised in poverty, were abused as children, or had severe physical problems to treat.

And they did deal with it.

Even during the Great Depression, some people flourished. By contrast, even in times when the economy is great, some people go bankrupt.

If you always blame others for their failures, it steals same. Believing that no evil, condemns himself to repeat the same mistakes. Only by accepting full responsibility you can learn and move on.

The real responsibility for your life is within you. A very wise man once told me that under every rock, you can find a demon.

He also told me, under the rock itself, you
can find an angel.

I encourage you to find that angel in yourself. If you ignore the demons long enough, eventually leave.
