5 Things To Do Instead of Blaming Others


It is impossible to be left out with no option on what to do; life is always fair enough to leave us with alternatives. But the challenge had always been that we often treat the alternatives with contempt and pretend to have no option.
Naturally, the flow is in the direction of least resistance and passing the bulk is easier thing to do than taking ownership and responsibility; we blame everyone and everything thereby show how immature we are. For a few, they put themselves in the list of who to blame but blame do not in any way help.
It is very likely to blame others and even yourself when ones interest is to get off the hook and not to address the matter; when you only think of escape route rather than a perpetual solution or the intention is to create an impression rather than make an impact.
What alternatives do I have other than blaming other?
1. Admit your wrongs. Admitting your wrongs do not in any way make you less human rather it makes you the real human you are. It is a hard thing to do but very noble when done. We all make mistakes, denial and blaming others are the reaction of children to their mistakes but admittance is adults’ response to mistakes and errors. You may look stupid at point of admission but latter your strength of character shows.
2. Accept the consequences. This shows how responsible you are.
3. Seek another opportunity to do better and promise yourself I will do better.
4. Talk less, stay calm and hold your peace. Resist every urge to advise others, you may end up telling them what they failed to do that made you do what you have done that you ought to have done. It is not your time to offer advice.
5. Take it as a learning point. Ask yourself relevant questions as you analyze the situation.
