We are all in situations of our own choosing. Our thinking creates a pathway to success or failure. By disclaiming responsibility for our present, we crush the prospect of an incredible future that might have been ours.

You have chosen the pathway to your present destination. The responsibility for your situation is yours.

If one makes a mistake, then an apology is usually sufficient to get things back on an even keel.
