It wasn't aimed at me but brother,, it sure hit home!!

While aiming his prospective at a narrow group of people,, I found it so personally refreshing and applicable to my own life that I thought maybe others could also find some form of encouragement in fulfilling the point that he is trying to make!!

Hopefully, I didnt cross the line with this one Bossman/Mods.. If so,, I will take the whoopin,,, its just that I found this video sooo personally inspiring in light of all that our nation has been going thru,,, potential blessings in the middle of hard times so to speak!!

Saw this last week. Common sense is never a bad thing and there's nothing political about what this young man said. Here's another to see

Taking responsibility for our own actions is good advice for everybody. How many people do you know who blame others for anything and everything?

[CaptainJoe]

Same thing I was told as a young'un...

"Your the one responsible for how far you make it in life, so, pull yourself up, by your own bootstraps"...

Hoping Al Sharpton and Jessie Jackson retire soon as they are helping to keeping their own people in poverty with their hate mongering...

Good videos!

Three thing that make me cringe when I hear them mentioned. Al Sharpton, Jessie Jackson, and the ACLU. None of which I can remember doing much good for anyone. And this "executive order" thing is beginning to make its way in there too.

Both videos hit the nail right on the head! Sure is easy to blame someone or something else for our problems but the ultimate hard truth is we have no one but ourselves to blame for how our life turned out!!! Trust me, I have first hand knowledge of this...

Here's another one:

Let's hope this thread stay on top of things. Good thoughts to be sure, but it will depend on the membership on how this turns out.

[Yammer Dan]

Very Very Good. Young man with his head where it belongs. But how to spread that when the Sharptons, Jacksons, keep tearing it down.

I don't think this is political. It applies to everyone. My sister in law has never taken responsibility for anything. Her financial plan is "Some guy will show up and pay for it all" She is now in her 40's and whines about having nothing.

In my early training the difference is described as the Responsible Person vs. the Victim Mentality person. It is remarkable how many people can not get their lives on the right track because they justify their actions by blaming someone else for their faults. A responsible person accepts and acknowledges their faults and attempts to take responsibility for them by correcting them.

Oh... They are, they're all over the internet.

When someone is in denial, no amount of common sense talk is going to sink in. Those men will be called all kinds of names by people who don't want to hear the truth.
