Take Responsibility
Being responsible for yourself is the key to your freedom and your ability to become the person that you want to be in your life.
If you are the sort of person who blames others, then chances are you wont have the integrity and attitude needed to become successful.
When you learn to take responsibility for your actions you are better enabled to enact change in your life, and this is a powerful tool towards change and empowerment.
Blaming Others
Often times, we are taught as a society to blame others for the things that are bad in our lives. It is easier to shift the responsibility to someone else because you don’t have to change if it is someone else’s fault.
However, when you start to see the role that you have played in the events that have taken place in the past this is when you can start to see that it was not just “them.” You too shared in the events.
Empower Yourself, By Taking Control
Self-responsibility is empowering because it allows you to see and accept your share, and because you are able to see your role in the problem, you are better prepared to make the needed changes.
This is true in every area of your life including your relationships.
How many times have you blamed your partner for the problems you have in your relationship? Now, how many times have you shared the blame with your partner and accepted your share of the responsibility? If you cannot remember, chances are you may need to start making some changes in your life.
Take Your Share Of The Blame - You Might Fix A Problem Or Two
I had a good friend; she was always unhappy in her marriage and even considered having an affair because she was so bored with her relationship and felt that her husband did not give her enough attention.
She never once considered that she shared responsibility for making the relationship work and even rationalized that it was her husband’s fault that she was going to have an affair.
When I looked at their relationship, I could see almost immediately, the role that she played in the dynamics of the relationship. When she realized what she was doing and when she became self-aware she started making changes to the way that she handled things in the relationship. The results were amazing.
She, (just as you will soon) realized that she needed to be responsible. She needed to stop blaming others (in this case her husband) for the failures in their marriage and start to take responsibility for her own actions.
A few months later; her and I met again and she told me how much things had changed for the two of them and how she no longer felt the need to have an affair. She was happier than she had ever been.
She now had the freedom and the confidence to be the wife that she didn’t know she could be. Her husband also started to take responsibility for his actions and together they made the most amazing transformation in their lives.
In Conclusion
You can have the freedom in your life that you are seeking if you learn to take a step back and ask yourself what you can do differently. You can enact a powerful and life transforming change.
It may sound wishy washy or cheesy, but there is not a happy person on the planet that is both successful and a serial blamer.
Trust me - You can not be both.
