Being responsible

Of the things that people take, responsibility is rarely in that list. We blame others for our problems. It is far easier to do that than to deal with them.

Fingers point outward, while the inward festers. Deflecting the attention away only changes the perspective. So, the issue remains unresolved.

By focusing on the faults of others, we fail to see our own shortcomings. However, they do not go away. When next we look, they will be worse.

Until your act is together, you should not critique anyone. Otherwise, you are inviting unwanted attention. Expect the reviews will not be kind.

Do not take down the house when only the roof needs fixing. The problems we face are not usually catastrophic. With effort, they can be overcome.

Honesty sees the weaknesses and does something about them. Leave not an opening for the enemy to exploit. Then, their attacks will just bounce off.

  1. It's more amusing when people constantly blame RNGsus for their problems.

    1. That which is amusing very rarely leads to progress. By its very nature, we are amused by the lack of such. What can be gained from this is what not to do.

  2. People blame their problems on others and often expect help when their own irresponsibility led to their situation. They see the world as unfair but never see the writing on the wall.

    1. The one thing that could help them out of their situation they refuse to do. You cannot make progress until you are willing to take an honest look. So, they just keep failing.
