Blaming and Distraction

Blaming is a distraction. While accusing others you can avoid yourself. Politicians do it all the time. Behind every accusation made by a political leader is a failure to take responsibility. It's not only politicians, but all of us who distract ourselves. Next time you blame, stop. Ask what part you played to create the current state, or what part you could play to make things better. It is painful to self-reflect, but powerful and freeing. The truth really does set us free. William Frank Diedrich http://noblaming.com
