HAve you ever thought why is it so hard for us to accept that we are at fault? Sometimes we blame that to someone else. We don't get to realize that it's only ourself who is to be blamed. Even me, I admit there are several instances already when I couldn't accept that I'm the mere reason why that trouble or misunderstanding happened. HAve you also experienced this? What are your thoughts about this?

It doesn't really take much to learn how to accept mistakes. To avoid finger pointing, just remember that for every finger u point out, 4 others on the same hand is pointing back at your self. Learning to accept you own mistake is the first step to overcoming most problems, and also the mark of success. Anyone who has learn to overcome blaming others, accepting their mistakes and moving on after learning their mistake is on the way to becoming a more successful person.

YEs, I agree with you. We must learn how to accept our own mistakes. Sometimes, it's also our pride that hinders us too. We don't want other people will look down to us. sOmetimes, we want other people to praise us too. Sometimes, we just want other to get in trouble, right?

I think unacceptance is one of the worst forms of denial..I tend to be the exact opposite though. Blaming everything on myself even when it's not due. It's a really bad habit..but I'm slowly getting out of it.
