Ever noticed how so many people blame somebody or something for the problems in their lives? I think most commonly blamed parties are:
- Upbringing – parents, teachers, school, college, university…
- Country – lack of opportunities, education, wealth…
- Circumstances – not luck, no money, no resources, no connections…
- Age – too young, too old…
- At work – industry, company, products, boss, colleagues…
If you are using one of these as excuses for not living your best life, think again! If you often find yourself saying: ‘I am late because of traffic’ or ‘I am overweight because of my genes’ or ‘I don’t have the time for _ because of _’ then you are the type who likes to fix the blame or give excuses instead of accepting responsibility.
