Post 1,014: Real Responsibility
I will blame myself without thinking about the situation. I am willing to take responsibility, so I will. This is not useful for multiple reasons:
1. 1. I put undue stress on myself.
2. 2. I don’t look for the real cause, and therefore make it easier to happen again.
3. 3. Lying to myself just makes me believe I am lying to myself.
Dealing with reality can only happen if I look at reality. It can feel like I am being accountable for the world around me. It is still a lie if I shoulder other people’s obligations as my own. Plus, I rob someone else of learning by taking away their consequences.
