It’s Time to Stop with All the Games

The news media sure likes playing the “blame game.” Everyone wants to point fingers and figure out exactly who caused what havoc. Whether it’s the housing crisis or the banking dilemma, everyone wants a single person to be at fault.

I’m sure there are plenty of people you could blame for any hardships in your life. The guy who cut you off on the way to work or the colleague who gave you bad advice on an investment pop to mind. But, where does placing the blame get you? Is having someone to point a finger at going to clear the air and get things back on track? I’m going to be blunt and say no, it won’t.

Trying to figure out exactly who is at fault is an exercise in futility. It’s one of the best time wasters around and, quite frankly, there’s no reason for it.

What really needs to happen is for someone to start offering up a solution. And, right now, that someone can be you.

If you’re having a rough time and really feeling the pressure of the credit crisis, well, now is the time for action. You don’t need to rush out there like a superhero; just take an inventory of your own situation.

Get out a pen and paper and write out a little chart of your own situation and start weighing your options. Look at your income, look at your expenses, look at your involvement at work or in your community and then look at your goals. Is everything starting to line up how you want it to?

If it isn’t, don’t go hunting for something or someone to place the blame on. Instead, go hunting for a solution. The key is to always be looking forward. What’s done is done and now it’s time to get more accomplished.

Getting away from the “blame game” can certainly be difficult. I know I used to play the game. I’d spend twice as long searching for who was at fault than I did trying to fix the mess. But once I was able to simply deal with the hand I was dealt, I became better able to steer myself towards my personal goals.

Today, look beyond the blame and figure out if you’re heading in the direction you want to be going. If not, it’s time to take the wheel and point yourself back on the path to success.
