Say no to excuses.
For many of us, the excuses are an easy way to cover up our own deficiencies. They feel proud at times, assuming success in forwarding the problems or shifting the responsibility toward someone else. They deny believing that excuses are their worst weakness. Experiences suggest that an allotted task would have been completed in two hours, but we spend the whole day preparing our excuses to be placed before the authority the next day. Excuses are tools for those who evade responsibility, don’t have a team feeling, and don’t know their own power of doing. It is the greatest dilemma for people who are under the illusion of bluffing others. Remember that in all these useless exercises, we are not deceiving others but ourselves. Believe that assignments are surmountable in the majority of cases. Say, there are genuine difficulties getting the task done. We may explain the scenario and sit together to resolve it. Accepting the truth may be uneasy for all the participants in the process at that moment, but all are wise to realise our straightforward response. Practice truthfulness. Excuses can’t be classified as an intelligent feat in any situation. Be responsible and contribute hundreds of percent in all our assignments. Blame games are not a solution. Rather, it balloons a small problem into something unmanageable at later stages. This habit usually starts developing in the early stages of life. Our methods of upbringing play an important role in fine-tuning the habits of kids growing within our sphere of influence. Our values are fundamental to our functioning. We must be vigilant to establish values in family, the workplace, and even at places we meet for short periods of time. Let us be clear that excuses have no place in whatever culture or place we belong to.
