Everything we do creates downstream effects. Sometimes our choices work out, other times they don’t. If we blame others instead of taking responsibility for our actions, we can’t accurately assess what happened. This prevents us from learning how we might make different choices next time around. Every time something doesn’t go our way, the world is giving us feedback that can enhance our understanding. Whatever the arena, the more responsibility we take by looking at our own choices and behavior to see how they contributed to the result…

The wiser we become.
