When you think of who and what is standing in the way of your dreams,it's easy to forget your own responsibility.Even the best of us can be guilty of unknowingly hurting our own progress.Procrastination,lateness,being disorganized,pessimism,not being honest with yourself,severe self criticism,downplaying achievements,focusing only on weaknesses while ignoring strengths,keeping goals a secret,demanding perfection,giving up after small setback-these are all ways you can make it tough to be(and do) your best.Smart systems,the right attitude,and a promise to keep going no matter what will make a world of difference.

Hi.
Very true, but once you came to know something outside you that is limiting you then it is really hard to think anything on your on behalf. I have tried a lot os times to find out mistakes that I made but I don't know why I always ignore them in the end.

Hello msefge,
I alway believe if you want something you have to get off your butt and go for it,no one is going to do it for you and my mother always used to say "never let the grass grow under your feet" but I'm one of the guilty ones that critise myself and think I'm not good enough for this and that.
Regards

I try to remember my own responsibility in making my dreams come true. However, other people who influence me sometimes stand in the way. I try to forgive them, explain to them what/why is important to me. Once again, you are right, its important to take the initiative to get there on your own.
