The Man in the Mirror

The man in the mirror
A look around me in the past weekend made me understand this: When we want to apportion blame say for example about the present situation of things in our country, we blame the government, policies, inflation, tax, politicians, our parents, the boss of the company we work, our class mates, our friends and others that I cannot even begin to imagine.
We blame all except the man in the mirror… ourselves. Come to think of it how many of us have actually accepted while being driven that it is the man driving us that is responsible for the near accident situation. We blame the driver in the other car, despite the facts.

Another critical look again and I realize that in a quest for success and significance we look everywhere for the secret… we look over the mountains, deserts, cross seven seas, did deep into the earth, bla bla bla and forgetting the most important, the answer… the man in the mirror… you.
You are the secret of your success, the secret of your failure. You should like the lizard that falls from the Iroko tree and nods, praising himself also praise yourself if you survive the storms of life and make a great achievement otherwise blame yourself for taking the jump if you died in the process.
It’s time to look in the mirror with a different purpose rather than to see if the make-up looks good on you. It time to look at the star in you the only person that can take you to your desired height or the fool in you the one person that has been responsible for all your set backs.

NO MORE EXCUSES… It’s the man in the mirror we should blame/credit
