The Errors Of An Excuse

Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

Today I am thinking about excuses and so I am going to blog about it; because this is my blog and I can. And this post will not be too long because I just want to vent a bit.

Making excuses not to live, to do, or to be is only going to hurt you more in the long run. Lately, I have listened to more excuses than I really care to hear. It has been like listening to a bunch of whining 2 year olds.

An excuse is simply a reason for inactivity. If you are an “excuse giver”I think that you need to reach down deep inside to figure out why you make so many excuses because there is something deep down inside of you that does not want to succeed.

There is an error in making excuses. It gives you a reason not to move, breath, and be all that God intends for you to be. The error of making an excuse is that your life is no longer your own. It belongs to all those reasons you give not to do what needs to be done.

There is no need to keep giving excuses when you have it in you to just DO. The choice it yours to make a difference in your life today.

I totally agree. I hate hearing excuses, but sometimes I often allow myself to make up excuses all the time, LOL! It’s definitely something I need to be more aware of and hopefully overcome.

Once again, you nailed it. I’ve been trying to find a way to graciously deal with someone about this and hadn’t been able to find the words. Can I please use yours?

Sometimes we spend more time on the excuse than we would if we had just done what we needed and gotten it over with.
