Reading for Today

Don’t blame others, don’t blame the situation, and don’t blame yourself. Instead of wasting your energy on assigning blame, empower yourself by accepting responsibility.

The way you experience life is no one’s fault. It is your choice.

Fully accept and embrace responsibility for all that surrounds you, and something amazing happens. You gain the power to make a positive difference.

If you run from the troubles, they grow stronger and chase you more and more relentlessly. Yet the moment you take responsibility for those troubles, you begin to have some control over them.

If you merely wish for your dreams to come true, they won’t. Yet when you step up and take responsibility for bringing those dreams to life, they begin to take on real form and substance.

Responsibility is the key that gives you access to all the best life has to offer.

It's true. When we refuse to face a problem it gets worse, but as soon as we confront it it's like a weight lifting from the heart.

I try to focus on, "Okay, what am I going to do about this?"

If assigning blame is important, I can always go back to that part later- but it seldom is.
