Despite how conscious of our decisions we are and how well we control our emotions, when things don’t go our way, we can be quick assign blame.
If you find yourself doing this often; it’s worth figuring out how to remove the blame.
Making examples up here, but …
- Don’t ask for an ice cream recommendation, just choose yourself.
- Don’t ask someone to text you a reminder, write one for yourself.
- Don’t leave the deer stand when someone asks you to come home soon, do it when you’re ready.
The more we make the decisions ourselves, the harder it is for us to blame and the better we get at moving on (because no one likes blaming themselves!).
Stay Positive & You Decide
