So many things happen to us and around us throughout our lives and it’s easy to fall into the never-ending trap of fault-finding. We live in a blame-obsessed society and we often waste a lot of time blaming all kinds of situations, circumstances, and people (including ourselves). On this episode I talk about the pervasive and dangerous nature of focusing on who or what is at fault. And I share some specific things we can do shift from this into the healthy and empowering mode of true ownership and responsibility. Doing this allows us to be more effective leaders, parents, friends, partners, and humans.
