Our objective:STAND OUT OF THE CROWD31RESPONSIBILITY.TAKE100%You have to give up blaming and complaining. We spend most of our time blaming things outside of us-the weather, our boss, the trafficthat made us late, the economy, or the current president. Whatever it is, we tend to blame something outside of ourselves.

2) The second thing is that you have to give up all your excuses and takethe position that whatever youre experiencing in life, the resultsyou are creating (whether its physical, financial, or relational),the quality of life you are experiencing is a result of how you areresponding to the events rather than the events themselves. The formula that captures this is E + R = O. You might want to write that down.

E + R = O stands for Event + Response = Outcome.

And what most people do is when they dont get the outcome they want,they blame the event. When they blame the event for not having what they want, it puts all of the power outside of them. There is nothing you can do about external events.

What is just is.

So what you have to do is change your response to get the outcomeyou want.4E + R = OAnother important concept is that people tend to complain tothe wrong person. If Im upset at Patty, I tell Veronica. And if Imupset at Veronica, I tell Patty. That doesnt solve anything. I needto tell Veronica if Im upset at her or Patty if Im upset at her-sothat the person who can do something about it has the feedbackthat I would like something different. That person doesnt need togrant my request, but at least I need to communicate a request inorder to get what I want.

Another important concept in taking responsibility and notbeing a victim in life is something called a yellow alert. Yellowalerts are things that you notice in your life that act as clues thatthings are happening or about to happen that arent going to workout.

Well I dont want to say anything about it because thatwould be too uncomfortable. Because it is inconvenient oruncomfortable, we tend to deny the yellow alerts rather than toact on them. So we almost always have clues that things are comingand so were not the victims.52ARE POWERFUL.AFFIRMATIONS637
