Do You Ever Play The Blame Game?

Would you agree that most people want to be relaxed, open-minded, and have great relationships? I think they do.

Yet many people have real problems with relationships, both at home and at work. Why? One reason could be blaming others rather than accepting their part in given situations. Let's face it; sometimes it is appropriate for blame to be placed on someone else - but all the time, every time, for every situation? No. If it happens with frequency, then maybe it's a habit.

Psychotherapist, interfaith minister, author, public speaker, and mindfulness teacher Nancy Colier, LCSW, Rev., pens an article to help us understand what's going on with chronic blame and how to stop doing it.

Here's are a few questions to consider.

Would it be normal for you to respond to someone with a problem by telling him why he is to blame for his problem?
In relationships with friends and family, do you often find yourself pointing the finger? Do you tell others how and why they are wrong, using phrases such as You did it, or, It's your fault?
When you confront difficulties or inconveniences, is it common for you to identify and ruminate over who or what is to blame?
When you are upset or in a difficult situation, do you frequently blame someone for making you feel the way you do?

Now that you've thought about these questions, let's move forward to the rest of the article. Hopefully, Nancy's insights will be helpful for you or maybe even someone else you know who may be struggling with the Blame Game. 4 Steps to Stop Blaming
