\"daverave\"One of the most difficult things we face is figuring out how much of the adversity, struggle, revert, or hell we’re going through is our fault, or someone else’s.<\/p>\n

Let’s face it. We almost always think it’s someone else.\u00a0 Someone betrayed us, or let us down.\u00a0 But sometimes when things continue to happen, it might be me.\u00a0 Here are the five signs that your biggest problem, adversary, and obstacle to overcome may be you and your bad habits.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. It may be you if you keep hearing everyone saying<\/strong>, “Everyone’s a jerk, everyone’s a liar, no one can be trusted.”\u00a0 Let’s face it. It is true for some people, but not all people.\u00a0 If you hear yourself condemning all people with one blanket condemnation, it just may be you who has a problem with trust.<\/li>\n
  2. It may be you if you think you’re powerless to change your life <\/strong>because of what’s been dome to you. The truth is you always have the power to choose not what happens to you, but what happens to what happens to you; both good and bad.\u00a0 Yes, there are people who can hurt you and betray you.\u00a0 And their betrayals can hurt take you back and at least create a new normal.\u00a0 But even from that starting place, you still have all the power to choose.<\/li>\n
  3. It may be you if you look back and this is the third or fourth time<\/strong> you’ve been fired.\u00a0 Behavior that is not inspected and challenged tends to be repeated.\u00a0 Maybe you’ve gotten yourself into a rut or habit with your way of speaking to people.<\/li>\n
  4. It may be you if you hear yourself saying, “Nobody returns my phone calls<\/strong> or answers my email.”\u00a0 I am not saying this is the case but could it be that you’ve developed a reputation for being the kind of person who sucks the air out of a room?\u00a0\u00a0 The kind of person no one want s to talk to or respond to?\u00a0 Just asking.<\/li>\n
  5. It may be you if all you think about is getting even.<\/strong> Resentment is a terrible thing.\u00a0 Bitterness is corrosive. And unforgiveness is like hitting yourself in the head with a sledge hammer hoping that your enemy gets a headache.\u00a0 It’s non-productive, self-destructive, and downright wrong.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Take this little self-test and ask, “Am I my biggest problem?”<\/strong> And if the answer is “yes,” here is some great news: you can change all of these qualities the minute you want to.\u00a0 Recognize them, see them, and get them out at arm’s length, and start making better choices.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
