Take ownership.

I often wonder if we put the same amount of time, effort, and energy into goal setting and execution of those goals that we do into complaining of how horrible things are and blaming others... how much better our lives and our society might be.
If we put more effort into taking responsibility for our actions. For our thoughts. For our past. For our present.
The only reason why our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are negative is because of US. Because truly, we are the only ones who can control them. Anything else is outside of our control, but those three things... those tiny, yet HUGE things... are completely, 100%, totally within our control.
So take ownership. Today. Now. This moment. Stop the complaints. The drama. The whining. And start making a plan to overcome the hardship that you have placed on your life.
I'm not saying it's going to be easy, at least not at first. But I promise it will be worth it. It will be freeing. And in the end, it will feel so much better than complaining and blaming.
