What do we do with a life of excuses? What should we do when we find ourselves living a life of regrets and could-have-beens?
It’s too easy to make excuses when things aren’t going the way we thought they would by now. What do we do when we are tempted to put the blame on the system or a tool?
This quote by Charles Spurgeon reminds me that excuses come too easily for me.
Lazy people always find fault with their tools, and those who do not intend to work always find some excuse.
Charles Spurgeon
What’s your excuse?
When things don’t go as expected, we can either give up or work to fix the problem. A flat tire can either be an excuse to stop working or a challenge to overcome. We don’t have to be burdened by problems. We can fix them.
Of course, if we find we can’t fix them, we can always seek help too. Maybe we don’t have the skills or tools to fix the problem, but someone else does.
Sometimes, we aren’t moving on because we are too lazy to fix it. Other times, it’s because we are too proud to ask for help. Either way, there is a solution if we are humble and diligent enough to seek it.
