All blame is a waste of time. No matter how much fault you find with
another, and regardless of how much you blame him, it will not change
you. Wayne Dyer
Blaming others is a sign of low self-esteem because in doing so we are not
taking responsibility. If you do not take responsibility you will always be
a victim of your circumstances.
I use to blame everybody and everything in the past until I realized that in
doing so my circumstances were not changing and my self esteem did not
improved. When I became aware of this behavior I took the decision not to
blame anymore. Whenever I find myself blaming people or circumstances I stop
and I say to myself: Is time to take responsibility and I take action. This
new behavior has helped me to build my self esteem because I do not feel the
victim anymore.
Here are some tips to stop blaming others and circumstances:
· If you made a mistake, admit it.
· If there is something in your life you are not happy about, do something
to change it.
· When you find yourself blaming stop and say to yourself: is time to take
responsibility.
· Be open to other's people opinion and if you did something wrong
apologize. Remember that you are not always right.
In his book Six Pillars of Self-Esteem, Nathaniel Branden suggest the
following:
Self-Responsibility:
· I am responsible for the achievement of my desires
· I am responsible for my choices and actions
· I am responsible for the level of consciousness I bring to my work
· I am responsible for my behavior with other people - coworkers,
associates, customers, spouse, children, friends
· I am responsible for how I prioritize my time
· I am responsible for the quality of my communications
· I am responsible for my personal happiness
· I am responsible for accepting or choosing the values by which I live
· I am responsible for raising my self-esteem
If you want to have a healthy self esteem you must practice
self-responsibility. This means that you are accountable for your choices
and action in your life and especially in relationship with your own self.
