Most of us make excuses to defend our conduct and live with the wrong notion that making excuses is something that everybody does ..so it’s O K . Over the years we have cultivated the art of making excuses with creative ways to avoid doing something that needs to be done . We think that with excuses we do not have to be accountable for our words and deeds . Is it too much to say that we are addicted to EXCUSES ?
When we make excuses and repeat them often enough, they become a belief. The belief then becomes a self fulfilling habit which makes sure of failure. Excuses set limits on our will and block the road to our purpose and passion. It’s only when we accept responsibility, we can evaluate our actions and take corrective measures to find solutions to our problems.
We need to learn to eliminate the habit of making excuses and take responsibility for everything in our lives. In accepting responsibility, we are showing a willingness to develop our character and in doing so , the stronger our character will become and as a consequence the quality of our life will be enhanced.
Let’s remember that life is too short for us to entertain the negative habit of making excuses. If we want to achieve something great in life , there is no doubt that we will find a way. If on the other hand we don’t want to do something big , and scared of difficulties and challenges, we can always find an excuse.Therefore don’t let excuses hold us back from developing our full potential. When the door is closed, why don’t we look through the open window ?
Stop making excuses and dare to be what you want to be !
