UNITED STATES, Feb 06 — Somewhere between the 1940’s and today, individual responsibility got changed into a new concept; blame storming. Blame storming is immediately looking for someone to blame when anything, and I mean anything, goes wrong. If something doesn’t work out, if we experience any discomfort, physical or emotional, if our plans get changed or any of the myriad things that can go wrong do go wrong, we start looking for the something or someone who is at fault. For those things that you have forgotten and driven on by, if they were not really important, they will have been given the attention they deserve; and if they are truly important, chances are they will return and you can then deal with them at that time

omewhere between the 1940’s and today, individual responsibility got changed into a new concept; blame storming. Blame storming is immediately looking for someone to blame when anything, and I mean anything, goes wrong. If something doesn’t work out, if we experience any discomfort, physical or emotional, if our plans get changed or any of the myriad things that can go wrong do go wrong, we start looking for the something or someone who is at fault.
This practice has been vividly illustrated lately as I read through the postings on internet discussion pages or news vines. Particularly in reference to the economic and political situation in the United States today, a significantly large number of writers lay the blame for the situations we face today on past presidents, congresses or policies. Rarely do they place the responsibility on the present administration, nor do they accept the fact that they may be part of the problem. All this is fine, except it does little to change the situation; it is like the weather, everyone talks about it but nobody does anything.
This concept is part of many people’s personal lives as well. Any “bad” situation they find themselves in is “somebody’s” fault. They lay the blame on parents, relatives, friends, co-workers, other races, other religions, other nationalities, the weather, bad luck, and sometimes even God. They are missing a very important fact. Of all the things people find to blame their troubles on, few if any are controlled by them. As a result, while they have found something or someone to blame for their woes, they are powerless to do much to change them.
There is a better way. It is very hard for some but it is very effective; it works almost every time. The first step is to accept the fact that whatever problem you are confronted with, that problem is yours. You may not even have caused it, but if you perceive it as a problem, it is your problem. Rarely do other people solve your problems.
So, once you have accepted the fact that what’s bothering you is yours, the next step is much easier. You either D.W.I. (Deal With It) or you F.I. D. O. (Forget It, Drive On).
When you apply this approach to your life, things become a lot smoother. That is not to say that dealing with problems is always easy or that forgetting things make them go away, but when you have dealt with something and resolved it, the relief can be impressive. For those things that you have forgotten and driven on by, if they were not really important, they will have been given the attention they deserve; and if they are truly important, chances are they will return and you can then deal with them at that time.
Either way, there has been some resolution of the problem.
