(READ THE WHOLE ARTICLE TO REALLY GET THE GIST BUT I LOVE THIS ONE PARTICULARLY) #5 You can’t change situations you don’t take responsibility for!! Sigmund Freud once said, “Most people do not really want freedom, because freedom involves responsibility, and most people are frightened of responsibility.” Don’t let this be you. When you blame others for what you’re going through, you deny responsibility – you surrender power over that part of your life. Make no mistake, in the end, the price of happiness IS responsibility. As soon as you stop making everyone and everything else responsible for your happiness, the happier you’ll be. If you’re unhappy now, it’s not someone else’s fault. Ultimately, your happiness depends on your self-reliance – your unshakable willingness to take responsibility for your life from this moment forward, regardless of who had a hand in making it the way it is now. It’s about taking control of your present circumstances, thinking for yourself, and making a firm choice to choose differently. It’s about being the hero of your life, not the victim. - See more at: spiritscienceandmetaphysics/10-pieces-of-timeless-spiritual-wisdom-to-help-you-get-through-hard-times/#sthash.UzlZwXcn.dpuf
