Taking Responsibility Is The Way To Learn And Grow

By Leave a Comment

“It’s all your fault!”

Do you know anyone who is always complaining, but has an excuse for everything?

Always pointing fingers at others. Blaming others for their problems?

Chances are, they doesn’t understand this simple truth:

When you blame others for your problems, you give away all your power.

Better to turn that finger around, the one you used to to point at everyone else, and point it at yourself.

By taking responsibility, you empower yourself.

Taking responsibility is the beginning of learning and growth. When you take responsibility, failure ceases to be failure.

Instead, it’s an opportunity to learn and grow.

This benefits everyone.

Most of all you (if you’re a chronic complainer who used to have an excuse for everything).

That’s a shame—because, as someone who desires to get and stay healthy—there is nothing more important you can do than change your behavior—to stop the bad, unhealthy behaviors like smoking, eating fried foods, and excess sugars, and start more of the healthy behaviors like preparing your own food, and exercising at least 30 minutes every day.

Many of the ways we’ve been trained to change our behavior don’t work because they’re too complicated, and they rely on will power which has proven time and again to be ineffective. Until now….
