I mentioned in the last post that the list was entering the part of the list of traits that happy people have which are difficult. Happy people don't make excuses. I have brought this up in other posts, but everyone makes mistakes, it is part of being human. Happy people own their mistakes, they learn from them and they move on. This is the way to improve your life and your abilities.
Making excuses is a sign of weakness. It is something that is very easy to do. The thing about making excuses is that once you do it, it becomes easier to continue doing it. Conversely, it becomes more and more difficult to take responsibility for your actions. It becomes a self perpetuating cycle. One of the worst things about this cycle is that it stymies your personal growth, instead of fixing problems, you end up doing the same thing over and over again. The worst part of this cycle is that eventually you become the only person who is fooled by your excuses.
Happy people are confident people. This confidence comes from realizing that although they have weaknesses, they know that they can over come these weaknesses. By owning your mistakes, realizing how to improve yourself you build your confidence. This isn't to say that you won't repeat some mistakes, the key is to repeat your ownership of those weaknesses. I don't know about anyone else, but I respect anyone who is honest with me and says, "I messed up, how can I fix it?" I am willing to work with people like that! I would even vote for someone who did that!
There really isn't a lot more to be said about not making excuses, other than to say if you want to really be happy, never make excuses!
