An excuse has never done anything for anyone aside from giving them a bad reputation. 

Making excuses for not meeting expectations can do more damage to your reputation and self-concept than many people realize. 

The failure to take accountability, and the attempt to take the easy way out by simply making an excuse, reveals the absence of character necessary to embrace and overcome uncomfortable circumstances. 

The reality is that many people think an excuse will remove responsibility, but in actuality it just makes you less dependable. 

If you spend your life constantly making excuses, you will continue to fall short of your goals, opportunities will close up, and you will be stuck with feelings of failure and inadequacy. 

To see a positive transformation in your life,  you need to get rid of the EXCUSES, endure the discomfort, and put in the WORK.
