When you take responsibility, you take control.

You become the author of your own story, not a character in someone else’s.

Blame Solves No Problems

In the business world, it is easy to fall into the trap of pointing fingers and blaming others for our problems. Whether it is a client who did not pay on time, a coworker who made a mistake, or a vendor who did not deliver as promised, it can be tempting to point the finger and assign fault. But as John Miller, author of QBQ!, so eloquently states, “Blame solves no problems.”
Blame is often counter-productive in the business setting. When we focus on assigning blame, we take our eyes off the real issue and waste valuable time and energy trying to assign fault. This can lead to a toxic work environment where team members constantly look for someone to blame rather than taking responsibility and working together to find solutions.
Instead of focusing on blame, taking a proactive approach to problem-solving is much more effective. This means owning our actions and looking for ways to improve and prevent similar issues from occurring. And if you’re a leader, it sometimes means taking ownership of bad outcomes produced by others.
The next time you are faced with a problem in the workplace or your personal life, for that matter, try to resist the temptation to assign blame. Instead, focus on finding a solution and moving forward. Your team will be more productive and effective, and your business will be better for it. And your outside relationships will flourish as well.
