Some people try to blame all their problems on someone else. And we sometimes do go wrong because of someone else's actions. But, in the end, what you do with your life is up to you.
So, while there's chances to make things right and make right choices...make it worth your time!

Taking responsibility on our life in every aspect is very complex and actually requires some time planning how to manage our actions and schedule ahead.
If you can understand the possible scenarios that can happen in the future , you can prepare yourself to get the best results. There is a saying in hebrew that says:"there is no smarter person than the one whith the foresight".
Nice picture you made with the "it's up 2 you" I commented about it , I will love to see your response on my comment.

I always try to give my best respons by giving advice , sharing my experience , and give a respond from my heart. I never just answer a trivial respond.
I think making money online is not a way to realy help society so if I do earn online , at least I try to give good advices and share some usefull information. Many people can have the right information on the right time so they can prevent problems for the future , maybe save money and maybe even earn more because of what they know.
I also want to say I try to plan my tommorow to be more focus when I get up , I will know what I want to do and when to do it and how to do it better. I also think about scenarios that may happen and make some flexible plan to them. Maybe my grand mother will need help , maybe dad will ask me something to do...

Hi mel, You are absolutely right! We all like to blame others when things go wrong, but the truth is, it is the result of our own choices. Wherever you are in life, make the best of it and take responsibility for your own actions. This is true for all of us and if we all realized it, we would stop complaining and make things better. Blessings.

What happen into my life today is all blame to my partner but I also blame my self because I choose the wrong person which is a wicked woman...I don't know if this is proper to say but my life really ruin when I get married into my partner. She is the reason why I am now down and lost everything in my life...the business and savings are all lost because of my partner
Now, I blame my self for what happen into my life. If I can't be with that wrong lady my life will be happy and business is growing

I always say, that humility is the start of wisdom. By not blaming things on someone else, and by realizing faults and learning from them is the best for one to develop himself to be better, regardless of age. I think improvement has no age limits. It is always best to be willing to commit and admit mistakes than just simply blaming things on someone else. At the end of the day, he who admits will improve better than he who runs away.

I think you are spot on with what you mentioned on this topic. It's always easier for us as a people to blame anyone but ourselves. That's our way of making ourselves feel better. I agree totally with you though. What we do with our lives is strictly up to us. Great topic.

I think most people do, or they blame god. You only will make the right choices for yourself if you don't believe, if you are responsible for your own deeds and if you are proud at yourself if you managed. What is right, what are the right choices nobody can know or say. since we all are differents and what is right for you doesn't need to be right for me. Also we all need to develop in our life and the only way to do this is getting life experiences, no matter if they are good or bad. We need them to change, to develop ourselves.

Being responsible for our life doesn't have to contradict believing in god :
I believe in god , I believe god gave me everything I need to do all I need on my own , and I just know I can accomplish many things I wish and without any good luck. Just good logic thinking , doing actions and define the goals.
I see it like this : It's like a programmer made a game people can play and they think the programmer can make changes in the game to help them success. So they don't try hard to play better to success. The programmer made the game hard but possible to complet. He provided the players with the tools. Praying god is like sending a support ticket to the technical online support or complimenting them on the forum , or asking them for changes in the game...It actually can help but don't count just on it.

This sure is something that make me feel bad...Lol most of the time i do something wrong,i do end up blaming someone else for that..I don't care if it is my fault or theirs i just take out my anger on a person who probably would not even have seen or done anything to make trouble...
But i do feel sorry for the people i put the blame upon when i stop and look back at that incident...i do think some people actually hates me for that :(

trials and problems are there to make us stronger and a chance to glorify your God. there is no such as escape in the word test.. you have to face the test and conquer it with the strength of the LORD.

You're so right when you say that it's up to you, and I think that the sooner people realise this, the sooner they're going to be able to be successful in their lives and achieve the things that they want to. I have been through a lot in my life so far, and one of the things that I have learned is that you have to take responsibility for your own actions, and you are only going to succeed in your life if you manage to do this. Other things will happen that you have no control over, but it is your own actions that are important.

Indeed in the end, we have to decide what is the best decision in life. There are going to be a lot of times where we are going to be in a mess. And often that is just going to be the cards that are dealt but many times, we are going to make some decisions that are going to bury us, put us right into a hole. There are just going to be a lot of times where it is hard to get out.
However, instead of complaining about our lot in life, we are just going to really need to find to dig our way up and to the top. Out of the hole and right back into the fray of things. We got to really figure these things out and if we spent half as much effort trying to find a solution. That is really just the way things have to be done sometimes.

hi! you're absulutely right. we should not blame someone on what happens to our life, but sometimes, i can,t deny that i questioned God for letting that something happen to me, where it should not be.. we are the driver and director of our own life. we make choices and decisions so whatevere the result, it is us who should be blame,, but anyway,, blaming ourselves is not also good to do.. what important is, we know we are wrong so we should willingly accept the consequences and learn the lesson from it.

That is true. Actually if we want to be in control of our life. We should always try to make good decisions. This way we never had to blame others unless somewhere along the way we find ourselves in a bad situation.

Many people like to blame on others when things go wrong because they haven't got enough patience and want to give vent to their feelings.However,it's usually hard to put all the responsibility only on only one person,what's often the case is that we and our partners both have reasons which lead the unpleasant result,and that calls for a good discussion and communication with each other.And that's not hard to do,just forgive others more and find more fault with ourselves instead of others,then we would have a harmonious atmosphere to deal with the situation,which would lead us to find the real cause of the result.
