“God hates me!!!” “No one has seen what I’ve seen.” “What difference can I make?” “I’d be more positive if others would pull their head out of their a**!” “I will never be as outgoing as them; it’s not my personality.”
Do any of these excuses sound familiar? Before we get started, I’m going to give you a moment or two to get them all out. Go ahead… Shout them out so everyone can hear!
“Life sucks!” “Everything that means anything to me has been taken away from me.” “Why change now? I’ve made it this far being this way.” “If they don’t like my attitude, they can stay the hell away from me!”
Throughout my tenure in a position of leadership, I’ve heard many excuses as to why people are grumpy or angry with life. History says that past experiences develop one’s attitudes. Those who lose loved ones or suffer through bad relationships, struggle with getting close to others. Those who continuously get the short end of the stick expect the shaft and actually anticipate its arrival.
I get all of this. To tell you the truth, I agree that sometimes life is not fair. Unfortunately for us, life does not give a damn. Life does not stop to cry about what has happened nor does life stop to admire what has been accomplished. Successes or failures are all based on the human mind and our own perspective. It is important to know that our path is already set forth. It’s up to us to make sure it’s paved.
