“I attribute my success to this. I never gave or took any excuse.” Florence Nightingale.

When you think about it, that is a tough way to live.
![Page 4: Excuuuuse Me](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022110310/558ec5721a28ab66628b460f/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
There are always times when you fall short and want to find

an excuse for why you did not measure up.
![Page 6: Excuuuuse Me](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022110310/558ec5721a28ab66628b460f/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
For example, why do I eat foods that I know are not good for me?
![Page 7: Excuuuuse Me](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022110310/558ec5721a28ab66628b460f/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Or why do I engage in behaviors that are not healthy? I know better.
![Page 8: Excuuuuse Me](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022110310/558ec5721a28ab66628b460f/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
It has been said that all human activity is either to try to seek pleasure to avoid pain.
![Page 9: Excuuuuse Me](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022110310/558ec5721a28ab66628b460f/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
So by eating foods that you should not eat, or by engaging in activities that are not healthy you get
![Page 10: Excuuuuse Me](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022110310/558ec5721a28ab66628b460f/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
an immediate pleasure and are able to avoid an immediate pain.
![Page 11: Excuuuuse Me](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022110310/558ec5721a28ab66628b460f/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
But being able to forego the immediate pleasure .
![Page 12: Excuuuuse Me](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022110310/558ec5721a28ab66628b460f/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
and work through the immediate pain will lead to bigger and better benefits later.
![Page 13: Excuuuuse Me](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022110310/558ec5721a28ab66628b460f/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
This is where excuses fit in.
![Page 14: Excuuuuse Me](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022110310/558ec5721a28ab66628b460f/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
If you want to do something that is not good for you,
![Page 15: Excuuuuse Me](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022110310/558ec5721a28ab66628b460f/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
you can think of an excuse.
![Page 16: Excuuuuse Me](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022110310/558ec5721a28ab66628b460f/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
That way you can feel good about your behavior now and
![Page 17: Excuuuuse Me](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022110310/558ec5721a28ab66628b460f/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
get to enjoy the pleasure now and avoid thinking about the pain that comes later.
![Page 18: Excuuuuse Me](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022110310/558ec5721a28ab66628b460f/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
As odd as it may seem when to you take total
![Page 19: Excuuuuse Me](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022110310/558ec5721a28ab66628b460f/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
accountability for your life and are responsible for everything that happens to you – You become free.
![Page 20: Excuuuuse Me](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022110310/558ec5721a28ab66628b460f/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
You become free of the outside influences that control so many people’s lives
![Page 21: Excuuuuse Me](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022110310/558ec5721a28ab66628b460f/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
You see that it is not the weather; it is not the other person; and it is not the job.
![Page 22: Excuuuuse Me](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022110310/558ec5721a28ab66628b460f/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
It is how you respond to those things that are important
![Page 23: Excuuuuse Me](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022110310/558ec5721a28ab66628b460f/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
And when you take responsibility for your thoughts and actions
![Page 24: Excuuuuse Me](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022110310/558ec5721a28ab66628b460f/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
and you become accountable to other people for the way that you act,
![Page 25: Excuuuuse Me](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022110310/558ec5721a28ab66628b460f/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
and then no excuses are necessary. Living a life without excuses will free you from feeling
![Page 26: Excuuuuse Me](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022110310/558ec5721a28ab66628b460f/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
that outside influences are holding you down and keeping you from being able to accomplish more.
![Page 27: Excuuuuse Me](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022110310/558ec5721a28ab66628b460f/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Without excuses you will have the power to make the changes you want to see happen in your life;
![Page 28: Excuuuuse Me](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022110310/558ec5721a28ab66628b460f/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
and without excuses you can make better decisions that will give you more satisfaction tomorrow.
