221 – Stop playing the blame game

It’s far easier to blame others than to take responsibility for what’s going wrong in your life. We’ve all heard the same excuses: Politics, bosses, salary, the President, etc. The list of excuses and scapegoats are endless, but complaining does nothing to help us. If you commit to taking responsibility for your life (both the good and the bad) you’re then in charge of your own destiny and no longer reliant on external forces or luck.

“You are responsible for your life. You can’t keep blaming somebody else for your dysfunction. Life is really about moving on.” – Oprah Winfrey

Dream Cymbals: Dream Cymbals are a different kind of cymbal company because they keep it simple. Their approach is simple: Make high-quality, handcrafted cymbals and gongs and sell them for a reasonable price. PLUS, you can bring your old cymbals (even if they’re cracked) and trade them in for a new Dream Cymbal. For every inch of cymbal you bring in, you get $1 off your cymbal. Have a broken 20″ crash? Trade it in for $20 off your next Dream Cymbal. The coolest part is they recycle the old, broke cymbals and use the material to make their crotales and crop circles. Check them out at DreamCymbals.com
