Blame v responsibility | When something goes wrong, is your first reaction to figure out what caused it and who's to blame? If you said yes, you are in very good company. It is the most common reaction to anything in our lives, even the good stuff! Who gets the blame? Who gets credit? And our minds tend to equate blame with responsibility. Makes sense, right? If you break something of mine, you should be responsible for fixing it. But the operative word there is "should". Because everybody knows (especially parents!) that no matter who is to blame for a situation, it doesn't always turn out the way that it "should". And fixating on blame only feeds our frustration and pain when reality doesn't match our expectations. In this week's episode of the podcast, I'll break down these ideas even further and help you start to make the journey from playing the blame game to seeing life through a different lens. Doing this kind of personal growth work is the quickest way to unlock incredible parenting for your kiddo and the most joyful life you could ever experience! So if you're ready to look into implementing these ideas in your own life, set up a free Discovery Call and let's see if we're a good fit! https://calendly.com/annkaplan/discoverycall
