Accepting Responsibility, Without Taking The Blame
There's no escaping the truth. As Winston Churchill once
said, "The truth is incontrovertible, malice may attack it,
ignorance may deride it, but in the end; there it is."

And when it comes to our lives the simple truth is that we
are where we are in life because of the choices we've made.
Some of those choices may have been unconscious ones,
things that we didn't really consider or analyze, but we
made the decision, took the action, and here we are.

Zig Ziglar often asks his audience the question: Is there
something specific that you could do in the next week that
would make your life worse? Everyone in the audience will
admit that yes, there is something that they can think of
that they could do that would make their life worse.

He then follows it up with the question: Is there something
specific that you could do in the next week that would make
your life better? The audience will again realize that
they can think of things that would make their life better.

Zig then lets them know that they just stated that they
have the power to make their lives worse or better. For
them, as well as for us, it's a matter of our choices.
Even if our lives are not the best, even if they are total
disasters right now, there are things that we could all
think of that we could do that will either make things
worse or better.

For most of my life I have been pretty much on autopilot.
My decisions were based on what seemed to be right, or at
least convenient, in the moment without any real thought as
to why I felt the way that I did or if convenience was the
best course. I made a lot of decisions and did things that
weren't always the best. As a matter of fact, some of them
were really stupid and I regret the things that I have done
that caused pain and problems for others and myself.

But it doesn't do me any good to look at my life and get
bummed out about it. Spending a lot of time feeling sorry
for myself and beating myself up with blame and guilt won't
fix anything. And when I finally accept all the
responsibility there's some very good news that comes out
of that realization. The truth is that if it really is all
about my choices, then I can start making better ones.

If I've been running on autopilot, pretty much ignorant of
the power I have to take control of my own life, I can
change that. I can stop blaming my parents for how my life
turned out. They are just people and so they are just as
flawed as the rest of us, and even if they contributed to
some of the wrong beliefs and thinking that I developed as
a child, it's time for me to question those ideas. I
especially have to start questioning the ones that may be
limiting what think I'm capable of doing with my life.

What we have in today, the results and conditions that
exist in our lives, are neither good nor bad, they just
are. It's what we've been able to do based on what we
believed up to this point. There's no point getting bogged
down in guilt, we have to accept that our life is the way
it is because of what we believed, thought, and did. The
past is just exactly that, the past. We can accept both
the responsibility for where we are and for where we are
going.

If we look at our lives and see that we haven't created the
kind of financial results that we would like, the first
step we have to take is to accept that we created our
current circumstances. Then we have to also accept the
responsibility to create the new beliefs and plans and to
take action on them so that we can have the kind of bank
account, and investments, we really want. If we're in
debt, we have to acknowledge that we put ourselves there
and we can find the answers to get ourselves out of it.

The Bible says that the heart, or the subconscious, is
deceitful and wicked and that no one can fully know what is
in it. But it also tells us that our hearts are exposed by
the words we say and the results that we get in life. So
while we may not be able to figure out exactly what is
lurking in the dark recesses of our minds, we can begin to
understand some of it out by looking at the current state
of our lives.

But once we examine our lives, then the hard part begins.
Because once we look at, acknowledge and accept what we've
created so far, we have to make some decisions. Do we want
things to continue as they are? Or are there things that
we would like to change? What do our results tell us about
what we currently believe?

Some of you may be wondering, "But what about events that
happen in our lives that are beyond our control?" It's
just a fact that those kinds of things happen to everyone.
How we choose to react to those events is what will make
the difference for us. The same event can be a tragedy for
one person and a triumph for someone else. The deciding
factor isn't the event but the reaction to it. It's the
choices we make that determine whether something will hold
us back or help us move forward.

As we accept the responsibility for everything in our lives
we may initially feel a bit overwhelmed. But it's not
about blaming ourselves, or anyone else, for our results.
It is really all about realizing that we have had a lot
more influence than we might have thought. And by
recognizing that fact, we can take full responsibility, and
therefore also greater control, over where we go from here.
