Watch it!
To begin, just notice when you blame something on something else. It's perfectly normal and natural. And very destructive to our peace.
I'm not saying that you should not try to figure out the root cause of something you wish to change. Let's say you're on a diet, losing weight quite nicely. Then you hit a plateau!
Was it a change you made? Did you substitute Coke for Diet Coke? Or is it just the naturally occurring pause that most weight loss takes? It helps to know. Even if it turns out to be a co-worker tempting you with a home baked muffin every morning.
But our reaction is what counts. If it has negative energy behind it, look out! "Ah-hah! They are out to sabotage my success! I'll fix them!!"
This is blaming at its most potent.
