Whether consciously or unconsciously, we tend to blame outside circumstances for our troubles, trials, and discomforts instead of taking personal responsibility.

For example, a wife that thinks her husband is too “controlling”, the truth is, no one can control you but you. You “allow” others to control you through your inaction. You and only you have the power to stand up for yourself, to speak up and take measurable action. Stop blaming this or that for everything going wrong in your life.

Write down the things that bother you and in a second column write down the steps you need to take to resolve them.
