It is easy to blame.
I mean why not?
Pointing out what someone else has not done is so much easier than looking in the mirror and admitting we have not done our best or that we have not done what we were supposed to do for yourself.
Blaming.
What makes people point fingers and turn the tables to look like you have done something to them when they are simply disappointed in themselves. It’s easier to blame than it is to improve. It’s easier to blame than face your own reality.
Blaming others is also an act of frustration and or pain requesting for help. Most people have used blaming since childhood to get the attention they needed or to gain power over a situation they felt weakness in.
Taking responsibility of you life is scary and can take a poke at your ego. It takes guts and power to not blame others and to step up and look yourself in the eye.
When I started building my business online I dealt with more frustration that I can even count. I was new to the online world, to social media, to blogging, to copy writing, to building a list. I had not clue how this weaved together for a business.
I had so much to learn and such a small budget to use to learn more. My super power became observation. I would follow the marketers that I admired and watched what they did. Google and I became really good friends and Youtube was his neighbor.
I didn’t get mad and blame someone else because I was learning slow, I buckled down and really applied anything I learned. No matter how small it was I felt accomplished.
I worked 13-hour midnight shifts three days a week. I listened to conference calls on my blackberry (don’t laugh it was top notch then) as I did my jobs work. I found a business coach who had a low-cost coaching group that I could join. I was not able to ask questions but I attended every webinar that was offered and took notes like a ninja. If I had something in my notes I didn’t understand I turned to google and began looking for the connecting pieces. I made it my mission to learn. When she spoke, I listened, when she had a training call I was on it, even if it was in the middle of the day and I had to get out of bed to listen to it (working midnights 1 PM was the middle of my night)
I didn’t spend time blaming someone because I had to learn as low cost as I could until my business income increased. As it increased so did my coaching fees.
Even though I may not be your business coach yet (go here and let’s get connected)- I am telling you to do this one thing. Stop blaming others and get to work. Is it gonna be hard? Hell yes! Are you going to be upset because it is going slower than you expect? Oh YES! Be true to your own self. It is not anyone’s responsibility to hold your hand and make things easy. If you are unhappy in an area of your life change it! If you have someone in your life that is not helping you grow but holding you back. Change it!
If your business is not growing and you are not applying the money making activities that it takes to grow then it is no one’s fault but yours. Change it.
Life is hard, Learning something new is hard. But my friend there is an end to every single rainbow and it is sweet.
