Take responsibility for the choices you make

Don't blame others. And don't blame yourself!
Learn from your mistakes.
If something isn't working, it doesn't make you feel good.
Don't do it anymore. Change something. Make a different choice.
Easier said than done - perhaps. Unless you really see yourself acting differently, before the event!
Take responsibility for your choices - now, and feel good about them.
Only then can we really be happy, knowing we are the master of our own destiny.

Realize the choices you make.

Say No to others' choices if they're not what you want.
Think about what you really want instead.
Consult your feelings.
Then choose and act.
Go for what gives you pleasure.
Without regrets.
It's the only way we can all be happy, isn't it?
