I remember the day when I truly

understood that every problem in my life is my problem. Others might play a part

in it, but the problem couldn't exist or be my problem if I wasn't involved!

Often, we blame our problems on everyone else-or some circumstance beyond our

control. This is usually the case when our problems are big and scary, and we

don't know how to face them. When we take ownership of a problem, we also

inherit the power to solve the problem. Instead of waiting for someone

else  to fix things, we can take control and fix things

ourselves.
 
Action Steps:
 
Are you taking responsibility

for the problems in your life, or are you still blaming them on others and

waiting for a magic solution? Man made solutions will make you stronger than

magic solutions. Choose a problem and take ownership of it. Then, begin to

brainstorm how you can move forward. And don't just brainstorm: act. If you need

help, do this in a group to explore new ways of seeing the problem, fresh ideas,

etc. Odds are, everyone has a problem or two that could benefit from a fresh

point of view.
 
Your Affirmation:
 
I can solve

any problem!
