Dangerous habits

Do not try to take care of anyone if you cannot take care of yourself. All attempts will be met with dismal failure. And others will suffer, as a result.

Adults must be responsible for the things they do. Those who cannot be held accountable cannot be trusted. For the fault will never lie with them.

Mistakes are not the same as failures. Everyone makes the former, but the latter are personal. They come not from a lack of knowing, but a shortage of caring.

We cannot turn back the clock. There is no way to change what has transpired. Still, there is much to learn for those who are willing to take an honest look.

Errors repeated become dangerous habits. They have an effect on everything you do. It will be easy to identify the point where things started to unravel.

When a person can stand, then they can assist others. If these do not listen, it is not your concern. Keep moving ahead, and leave the stubborn behind.

    1. Since we do not know everything, mistakes are inevitable. But most people make a habit of failure. They keep going around in a circle, never getting anywhere.

  2. Indeed a person must be able to stand on their own before they can help others. Making mistakes is not failure as you said, being too blind to change the habits that led to the mistakes is.

    1. Human beings are creatures of habit, Chris. No matter how bad the habit is, they will defend it. Real change comes from taking an honest look at oneself and taking steps to overcome any faults.
