How to have a better life | Episode 60

Since the beginning of time man has pushed blame. Even in the oldest story in The Bible, Adam and Eve, the moment God discovered they were not naked Adam blamed Eve. Then Eve blamed the snake.

We need to stop blaming other things for our lives. Take responsibility for the world around you. Anyone can play the victim, but all it does is put you in a helpless mentality. Yes, there are things that have happened out of your control.

What you are responsible for is how you perceive what’s happened. It’s how you view the events that unfold that you are in control of. You can either sit back and pity yourself, or you can let it empower you.

Things happen to us for a reason. Use it as a stepping stone. Don’t let your situation knock you down and put you in a bad spot for the rest of your life. Instead, let it be your driving force. Let it be a way to motivate you, turn your life around, and put you on the track you want to be on.

If you focus on the negative you will only find more negative situations. If you can find the love, and the positive in a situation more positive opportunities will present themselves to you.
