Yourself To Blame
by
Mayme White Miller
If things go bad for you
And make you a bit ashamed
Often you will find out that
You have yourself to blame
Swiftly we ran to mischief
And then the bad luck came
Why do we fault others?
We have ourselves to blame
Whatever happens to us,
Here is what we say
"Had it not been for so-and-so
Things wouldn't have gone that way."
And if you are short of friends,
I'll tell you what to do
Make an examination,
You'll find the faults in you...
Your the captain of your ship,
So agree with the same
If you travel downward
You have yourself to blame.

I Aint Much Baby--But I'm All I Got!
"Compared with what we ought to be, we are only half awake. We are making use of only a small part of our pysical and mental resources. Stating the thing broadly, the human individual thus lives far within his limits. He posseses powers of various sorts which he habitually fails to use." by William James - Psychologist and Philosopher.
Living far within his limits. What will make any human constantly expand and approach his limits?
Through empirical testing by scholars of human behaviour it is proven without doubt that "praise" spurs people into success. I can name many examples of people whom through sincere praise of their work have achieved epic success but I will leave that part to you.
If birds can do it then you sure as hell can.
B. F Skinner carried out the pavlovian experiment and discovered that rewarding a good act leads to behavioral modification. Constant punishment on the other hand will inevitably retard growth and cause one to live far within his limits. So next time you want to start a good habit or learn a new skill, try praising every little accomplish and rewarding yourself. Making the latter act a habit is the secret to rejuvenating ones energy hence making the task of conquering the impossible seem easy.
