It takes alot of courage to accept that the responsibility is ours let alone agree to take up the challenge. Alot of times when I get into trouble or my plan towards a particular thing didn’t work out to my expectation, I find a weak fellow and push the blame on him/her. Not untill a smart fellow speak up and face me squarely pointing out my faults and proving the other person innocent telling me I broke it and at such I have to fix it, only then would I have no other choice than to accept my responsibilty.
A friend of mine who is from a very rich family, (so to say) whenever we are deep in conversations she makes it known to me that her father is responsible for her predicament and present financial status and I ask her, friend, why blame your father for your failure? she replied that he’s been poor all his life and I said to her : your father is poor doesn’t mean you would be poor as well. Considering the way things are, it isn’t in anyway hereditary. All you are doing is pushing away your responsibility and accepting failure.
Let’s learn not to pass the ball to others. Take up the challenge. If you blame your failure on someone, you would never think about taking the bull by the horn. Whatever you are in life, you made it so be it good or bad. Your family, friends and loved ones might have made mistakes but you can make a change. Your palm would not deceive you, hold unto it because nobody can shapen you life better like you will. The moment you take full responsibility of your life’s situation, heaven would back you up as long as you believe in him.
I saw a quote and I was wondering if it’s a way to encourage failure. It goes thus; ” when you fail just know that you really tried”… This shouldn’t be instead keep on trying countless times then victory would be met at last. Do not give in to failure like the quote suggest rather see it as a challenge, amke your failure your responsibility and make something out of that life that people think nothing good can come out of it, they would have no other option than to celebrate with you at last but first you have to accept that YOU BROKE IT so you have to FIX IT…!!!!
