Do not blame others...

"Take personal responsibility for the consequences of our own actions and decisions. Do not blame others." ... Jonathan Ooi

This quote was inspired by a conversation I had with a healthy and happy 70-year-old grandmother with sound parenting experience. She has parented three sons who are now successful in their respective career and business. Now, she is taking personal responsibility in parenting two of her grandchildren who have been misguided by their mother who does not really care about the education, character-building and wellbeing of her own children. The two grandchildren are now improving under her care. She does not believe in blaming others.

On the other hand, I knew of a person who would always blame those friends who suggested to her to go into a business where she lost a big sum of money eventually. In actual fact, she was too easy with her money and might be too greedy wanting to make more. She would also blame the people around her in whatever ways most unimaginable when she does not win her bet in 4D and TOTO when in actual fact, losing in betting is a given because of the law of probability. She would also blame others for not showing their care and concern towards her when she does not take the health advice people give her.

The problem is she does not take personal responsibility for whatever she has done and done wrongly!
