We live in a world that is full of excuses. Everyone wants to blame the weather, the government, the economy, their spouse, children, or their parents. The truth is that there is only one person responsible for the quality of life you live. That person is you! If you want to be successful in life, you have to learn to take 100% responsibility for your life. The problem is that most of us don’t want to take a hard look at ourselves and realize that we are the problem. It could be a bad attitude or negative mindset that has held you back time and time again. It’s not easy to take 100% responsibility for your life. This will include giving up all blaming and complaining. This also means that YOU HAVE TO GIVE UP ALL OF YOUR EXCUSES! I know that’s a hard pill to swallow, but the truth is that all excuses are just a waste of time. Wayne Dyer said, “All blame is a waste of time. No matter how much fault you find with another, and regardless of how much you blame him, it will not change you.”

So today I want to challenge you to give up all of your excuses, blaming, and complaining and decide that you will begin to take 100% responsibility for your life.

With Gratitude,
