Blame is a Waste of Time

"All blame is a waste of time.

No matter how much fault you

find with another,

and regardless of how you blame him

it will not change you."

Dr. Wayne Dyer, author

   

As I see it. . . . . . . .

Blame is a waste of time  

Blaming is a negative activity that can make a bad situation become worst. Blaming someone for our circumstances is a complete waste of time, energy and will never resolves the circumstances.   

A person that continually blames others for their circumstances will find that other people will look at that person as the source of the problem. The only people that will take the side of the person doing the blaming are negative people that will create a downward spiral for themelves and the people around them.   

Stuff happens; successful people are solution oriented and they invest their time and energy solutions and positive activities to resolve the circumstances that they find themselves in.

Taking corrective action is much more productive than placing blame and requires about the same amount of energy and time.

I agree! You can have reasons or you can have results but you can't have both!

Laying blame has never changed one thing for me...Moving forward with a lesson and remembering I am ultimately responsible is my mantra.

I like Donna and Larry's quote as well:

"You can have reasons or you can have results, but you can't have both"

Best regards,

The only result in most cases is bitterness and that is not positive!

Hi Lou, The blame game is a waste of time.  Get the problem resolved and just move on.

Lou,

Blame is a defense mechanism. It diverts attention from the one responsible. :)
