You can make excuses, or you can make progress.  You choose.

“Your intelligence is like a double-edge sord: It can cut in either direction.  You can use your intelligence to rationalize, justify, and blame other people for things you are not happy about, or you can use your intelligence to find reasons why you are responsible for what happened and then take action to solve the problem or resolve the situation.

You can make excuses, or you can make progress.  You choose.

This sense of “response-ability” is the mark of a highly developed personality: You take responsibility for your life by resolving, in advance, that you will not become upset or angry over something that you cannot affect or change.

What cannot be cured, must be endured.” – Brian Tracy- No Excuses!

When you turn towards the sunshine, the shadows fall behind you.- Helen Keller
