Thought for the Day - Have I Done My Best

Posted on 18:36 by Unknown
A question to ask when things don't go our way and before we start blaming all else is this - was this the best I could have done? Was there something else I could have done? If I could have, why did I not do it? Ask yourself this question honestly and you will find the answer in a moment.

If you had been truthful to yourself, the answer is evident even before you ask the question. But if you are looking to blame and say I have done my best, thee is still some dishonesty somewhere. Accept that perhaps there could have been room for improvement (else you would not have been in this position). And then work on those areas.
