“For whatever has happened – always remember – you, yourself, are responsible. Don’t deflect responsibility on someone else – your stars, god(s), enemies or anyone else. Even if they played a role – it was you who brought it upon you through your actions. There is nothing to be gained by blaming someone else. The solution to any problem can be possible only when we take responsibility for it. Admit your mistakes, limitations as well as the lack of knowledge. When you do it – you’ll be on the sure path to find solid, wise as well as lasting solutions to your problems.”
