Have you ever played the Blame Game?   Maybe you have and you don’t even realize it!

Did you miss out on a promotion and blame your co-worker because he kisses up to the boss?  Did you not get that sale you’ve been working on and blame it on marketing?  Did you get laid off and say it’s because you’re too old?  Do you dislike your job because of so and so?

When you blame others for your lack of happiness or success, you give up your ability to heal what’s wrong and to create the changes you want.  Blame prevents you from taking responsibility for your life and leaves you powerless.  When you hold someone else responsible for how you feel or what happens, you give up the power to change your life and create the success you desire.  You are putting someone or something else in charge of your life.  Think about it.  Realize you are playing the game. Take your power back!  Stop playing the Blame Game!

To shift this blame mentality, change tactics.  Play the “game to win”!  This starts with taking responsibility for your mindset and your actions.  Think about what you want versus what you don’t want or don’t have.  What you think about is usually what you get. Trust that you are in the process of getting what you want and that you have the ability and resources to do so.  If you feel something is missing, take action to get that skill or resource.  You are responsible for winning in your game of life!  Take your power back, NOW!
