How To Be A Star In The School Of Life: Give Up The Blame Game By: Roger Kenneth Marsh | - I was recently blessed with the opportunity to play in a foursome with Bobby Clampett, PGA Champions Tour Player, pro golf instructor, and NBC announcer. As we played each hole, Bobby had lots of interesting things to say when it came to playing great golf. One of the most memorable for me was, "The best students and players never complain about why their ball didn't go where they wanted it to. They never blame it on the wind, the grass being too wet, the sun in their eyes, or any of those thing ... Tags:blame game, Bobby Clampett, PGA Champions Tour Player, Spiritual Life Coach

Choose Between Yesterday Or Tomorrow By: Deidre Glendon | - Some of us live in the past. Everything we do is tied to our past. We think, act and speak in relation to our past. We rely on our past for our identity and for our direction in life. We blame our past for haunting us and for making us feel less than we are. We blame those who were in our lives for everything that we didn't like and for the way we are living today. It's easy to blame the past because the past cannot be changed. It's easy to blame others because we don't have to blame ourselves o ...

The Art Of A Great Apology By: Marsha Egan | - No matter how hard you try to be perfect, I can guarantee that, at some point, you'll have the need to apologize to someone!

Many of those on the outside want to get in, and would if finances permit it, and those on the inside want to stay in.

To Forgive By: Scott F Paradis | - Are you troubled and weary? Is something you are clinging to bringing you pain? Don't succumb to the temptation to place blame. For the pain you feel is not from out there. The pain you feel inside, deep within your being - a sense of betrayal, loss, or bitter despair - is a feeling you manufacture, you nurture, you hold onto. This is not to say the circumstances you have endured are not deserving of an emotional release - just don't allow that experience more than it is due. The tighter you cli ...

Indian Wedding Curry By: hasim bham | - In the year 1960 I was born in India. But curry was born before me. We were a sibling of six,and our main meal was curry every day. Curry was made in a large pot. You could say that our curry was more like a soup curry, and that the mountain of gravy in the pot was no more than two pieces of chicken or lamb meat for each person, because our curry was made with a lot of water and potato since these were dry days and the income of our household was not enough to give one BBQ in a whole year.

The Truth And Nothing But The Truth By: Howard Jacobs | - I recently saw a movie called "The Invention of Lying" with Ricky Gervais. The movie took place in a mythical society where there was no concept of lying. I wondered what a speech by Barack Obama would look like if he had lived in this mythical society and had to tell the truth as he saw it. The speech might go something like this...

How To Make Your Ex-girlfriend Want You Back By: C Tyler | - There's no use beating around the bush about it. When a man gets his heartbroken and breaks up with his girlfriend, his first reaction is almost always to try and get her back.

If you don't want this to happen, and if you want to learn how to make your ex-girlfriend want you back, then you have to be able to make a few decisions right off of the bat.

Accept That Your Life Is Imperfect - And That's Perfect By: Ted Ciuba | - Accept that life is imperfect-and that's perfect-and deal with what emerges. You know, so many people get backed up and stopped up, and then fall into the blame mode because something didn't happen the way they wanted. Someone didn't offer them what they wanted, be it that opportunity, that job, or maybe someone stood in their way.
Things aren't going the way they like, and maybe someone else is so lucky.
As Little Bailey Works To Speak Her First Word, Democrats Work To Steal Her Future And I Blame You! By: AL Lavallis | - Blame is not a bad or a petty thing when used appropriately. Blame attributed to thosse people responsible for taking actions that intentionally or unintentionally result in harm to others is appropriate; as it is to those whose inaction causes that same result. With our constitution being weakened, and our liberties stripped away by those we place in positions of power that have no respect for either, it's easy to identify those who are to blame.
Do You Play The Blame Game? By: Yvonne Bleakley | - When something goes wrong, most organisations and managers need someone to blame and almost instigate a hunt to put a name to the culprit without ever thinking of the impact that this has on employees. If this is what is going on in your organisation then all employees will do is try to cover up mistakes and hide problems hoping that no one will find out. Genuine mistakes may go unnoticed and un-reported which may lead to even greater problems in the future. The result is that nothing ever ge ...

I Need A Divorce - And Quickly By: Elsabe Smit | - What do you do when you let your heart run free, knowing even as it happens that you have made the worst possible decision? We often hear about celebrities that get married on a whim, and within a matter of days, or sometimes weeks, they head for the divorce court. They have the courage to stand up in public and say "This is not for me."
One of the biggest lies you can tell yourself when it comes to achieving financial freedom or failure is that it has to do with external conditions and circumstances. The fact is that you are constantly drawing in experiences and events that mirror back to you your core beliefs about yourself and what you believe is possible for your life.
The Global Blame Game Against America By: David Hobbs | - I'm not a fan of the news. That's not to say I don't appreciate the media providing us information for just the price of watching a few commercials (I really should check out my credit report if for no other reason than to get that guy to stop singing about it), but I'm not particularly fond of the kind of news we get lately. It's almost all bad or depressing.

Could Blame Be Holding You Back & Limiting Your Happiness? By: Margie Warrell | - Yesterday I walked in on my two younger sons, Matthew and Ben (aged 5 and 6), to find them in the midst of a big barney (Aussie for quarrel). When I asked what was going on, a tearful Ben admitted, "I punched him on the nose because he said I was a dumb dumb". Matthew quickly defended, "Yeah, but that's because he wouldn't share his Pokemon cards".
Later on, when tempers had cooled, I tried to explain that it's no excuse blaming someone else for our behavior. Hitting is not okay ... Tags:blame, blaming, courage, take responsibility, change
I was raised by imperfect parents and educated by teachers who were verbally abusive, ignorant of the power they possessed to inflict unspeakable damage on young minds. My peers in school taunted and picked fights with me. I'm scarred, bruised, and still in pain. I spent a large part of my life blaming my past for problems I experience today.
When I became a therapist, however, I started to question my own mindset, and the validity of my thinki ... Tags:blame, responsibility, stop blaming
Marital Conflict: Expect It And Cope With It. By: Blended-Families.com | - In any marriage, even the most supportive and agreeable, there are disagreements, and the manner that couple resolves conflict determines the welfare, quality and longevity of the marriage. Some couples mistakenly believe their marriage has no chance of success if they experience conflict, which may be due to the age-old belief that conflict is best avoided to ensure family unity. The result of conflict avoidance is often simmering anger and deep-seated resentment about unresolved issues.

Lazy People Blame And Complain! By: Michael A. Verdicchio | - Many people believe that the reason that they are not successful is because of the economy. They hear that good jobs are scarce. They see prices continue to rise. They know that lots of people struggle. And so, they just accept that the present economy is the reason they are not successful.

Accepting Responsibility, Without Taking The Blame By: Rob Marshall | - 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.
Feeling Guilty? - 7 Ways To Get Rid Of Guilt By: Carolyn Bushong | - Guilt is a very destructive emotion. Maybe it is helpful for a client of mine to feel enough guilt about hurting her married lover's wife to stop dating a married man and get out of the relationship, but the majority of guilt comes from feeling stupid or not perfect enough.

Reiki Heals Pain And Depression By: Taylore Vance | - Reiki treatments (hands-on-healings)will remove and dissipate stuck emotions(energy blockages) - usually the real cause of imbalances in all areas of our lives. Higher energy heals and releases lower energy (negative emotions, pain, etc.). Higher energy flows out the hands of a Reiki practitioner. When an application of Reiki is placed on a sore spot, an injury or on a person with a disease, the higher energy (God force energy) is stronger than the lower energy. Which wins?

Learn To Let Go Of Praise And Blame! By: Max Ng | - Every time that I was praised, I felt very happy and proud. I felt noticed and appreciated. Whatever positive feelings I felt, I found that it is very difficult for me to settle down and focus on my work. This is because I was too excited by the event.

Negative Feedback Is An Opportunity By: William Frank Diedrich | - Most of us have difficulty with negative feedback. We tend to become angry, defensive, or hurt when people offer negative feedback. We blame the bearer of the information. Many leaders avoid it altogether, because it strikes at one of our most prized possessions--our image of self. We like to see ourselves as effective, skilled, and capable both with people and task. Negative feedback is an opportunity that should be welcomed and valued as a great gift.

Transcending The Blaming Culture By: William Frank Diedrich | - Many organizations have a blaming culture. A blaming culture is where blaming is a common occurrence. Blaming behaviors include pointing the finger, complaining, criticizing, and making excuses.

Parents: Have You Forgiven Yourself? By: Margaret Paul, Ph.D. | - From the time my first child was born, I wanted to be a wonderful parent. I read book after book on parenting and tried to learn all I could about being a great parent. And I did a good job, considering how I was raised. But I certainly did not do a perfect job by any means, if there even is such a thing.
My children are adults now and I am a grandparent. I get to see the fruits of my parenting, and I am mostly happy with the results. But not totally happy.
From Blaming To Blessings By: William Frank Diedrich | - It can be wonderful to be a victim. First of all, I get to be right. I am misunderstood, mistreated, and miserable, but at least I know I'm right. I'm in pain, but my pain is at least a little bit satisfying. The end all and be all for life's perpetual victims is self righteousness--being the one who is right, good, or special. I get to be the star of my own drama.
Motivation: What Works? By: William Frank Diedrich | - Blame and criticism are highly overrated as motivators. You already know this. Think about it. When you spent a lot of time trying to correct someone--an employee, your spouse, your parent, your child, anyone--did it work? When someone was blaming and critical of you, did it work? Like most of us, you probably felt the blaming was unfair or inappropriate. The problem is that blaming and criticism don't inspire us. If you are sensitive, they make you feel small. There is an answer.
Kick Your But's By: William Frank Diedrich | - Most intelligent people are willing to say: "I am responsible. I am accountable." To say and mean this is the first step. The second step is to add the word "completely". "I am completely responsible". This is difficult for most. When something goes wrong we tend to say: "I am responsible but..." Our "but's" get in the way of assuming complete responsibility. Complete responsibility increases your ability to accomplish goals. Complete responsibility is power.
