Do you know someone who doesn't take responsibility for their actions? It's always someone else's fault, or they blame the system for singling them out of society. I get really tired of hearing from someone who always plays the victim card.
How can a person always be the victim? Everyone has choices they make and in this world we have a thing called, cause and effect. If you buy a car and decide to make payments on it but fail to do so after a few months, the bank or dealership will repossess it and it will be your fault, not anyone else's.
If you have children and you continuously put them in dangerous situations or neglect them don't come crying when they get taken away from you. When you have children they should become the most important thing in your life even over yourself. You see people on the news who have 3 children all crammed into one room with a lock on the door while the parents are having a party or have gone out somewhere. . Then you hear them cry bloody murder when their kids are taken from them.
Is it everyone's fault that you can't hold a job, or that you have
alienated your friends with your me first attitude, or that your family
won't help you anymore? What is the common factor in every single life experience you have ever
had? You are. You have been involved in your life and made choices that
are your fault and nobody else's.
It can't always be some else's fault, I think, if you look within yourself and really ask, "What could I have done differently?" Seriously ponder this question and then blame yourself for once, for the situation that you are in. It is only then, when you take responsibility for your own actions, that you can start to permanently fix the problem and it will no longer become an issue.
Blaming everything but yourself cannot be repaired, you can't control anything other than yourself, so that is where you start.
