“Some people change jobs, mates, and friends, but never think of changing themselves.”

Sometimes the only common denominator in a series of failures is us.  We as a society tend to point fingers and blame others instead of taking responsibility, the irony is that responsibility is the first step to the growth needed to overcome and turn failure into success.  Looking in the mirror and changing ourselves is one of the most difficult things we must do.  It takes courage to admit we are a contributing factor to the difficulties we face in our lives.  But if we don’t, we will experience the same cycle (only quicker this next time) again and again.
