Passage 38 A Burden You Don’t Deserve

It's easy to blame someone else for your troubles. Yet, when you're truly honest with yourself, it's clear that blaming others will not add the slightest bit of value to your life.

To move your life in the direction you choose to go, you must be willing to take full responsibility for it. That means you must accept that things are not always going to be fair.

Perhaps life has given you a burden you don't deserve. Instead of seeing that as an excuse to give up, see it as an opportunity to give more.

Though you may not have brought your troubles upon yourself, you can still make positive use of them. Choose to take full responsibility for your own situation, and you'll begin to see how you can rise from it to a level that's higher than ever before.

Real success does not result from everything going perfectly. Real success comes when you're willing to move forward no matter what may happen. (164 words)
