Here’s a neat story that goes like this:

One day God was choosing only one person out of a billion to go to Earth and contribute something great while there. He asked all of applicants to explain what they would do on earth if he chose them.

He then made them promise that they would do everything they could to fulfill their promises if chosen.

Imagine that God chose you.

Now, go and write out what you told Him and keep your promise.

I eventually took full responsibility for my shortcomings, but it was only after I acknowledged where I was and why. The truth hurts. I had to admit, to myself, and everyone around me, that in some fashion, I caused this. I admitted that I was making excuses and casting blame. It was a humbling experience, to say least. But, I tell ya, it was worth it. I am free! The answers to most complicated problems are usually simple. Not all, but most. I understand that there are things that are completely out of our control. But, those things are just life and we must deal with them with best attitude we can muster.

As for majority of our problems, first step is to acknowledge our situation. You can never solve a problem in your life until you can first acknowledge that you have one.

Do you sincerely want to move on with your life? You can if you decide to. Make a decision today to take full responsibility for where you are. Maybe you haven't made right choices up to this point. But now, decide that you will make your choices right.
