Thu, 24 Jun 2010 21:32:37 +0000 http://mizfitonline.com/2009/01/12/whats-your-pr/#comment-59448 Watch the blame game, both ways. When I was very young everyone harped on me about personal responsibility. Now its all my fault all the time, and its been hard, especially through puberty. Can I really be responsible for being indoctrinated, or being abused, or injured in the first stage of my life? Obviously not, but be careful, with pushing the PR thing. It can go too far the other way, I should know, I'm the perfect example. A little bit of counseling, and a really supportive life partner help, but its still ingrained in who I am. When something goes wrong, Its all my fault, even though my rational mind knows better. Its really depressing and can make children feel alone in this world. So please Yes teach personal responsibility to your children but practice it yourself also. If you sent your kid to a school where there were not being taught facts and they end up being dummies, step up and take responsibility for your child not getting a good education. And heaven forbid you leave little Lucy with Uncle Tom and he abuses her. Its not her fault, look with in, and take responsibility for your mistake of leaving her with him.

Wed, 14 Jan 2009 07:19:01 +0000 http://mizfitonline.com/2009/01/12/whats-your-pr/#comment-24590 You nailed it on the head. Even if parents are abusive there is only so long you can blame them before it becomes ridiculous. I struggle with that all the time! I also struggle with my former swimmer self who was ranked nationally at the age of twelve but who went away by the time she was sixteen. I am mad all the time that I left that part of me just to get back at my parents! She exists and I want to take the responsibility to find that girl who put in six hours a day in a pool (I know I really haven't lost her- she just hides sometimes)! Okay! Enough talking about my former self in the third person! Creepy! Ha! You nailed it on the head. Even if parents are abusive there is only so long you can blame them before it becomes ridiculous.

Personal responsibility is so important. I used to blame my circumstances and other people up until about 4 months ago. I'll never forget the moment where I made the decision to stop blaming and complaining. When you blame your circumstances or other people you put yourself in victim mode and in victim mode you're powerless. Great video! Personal responsibility is so important.
