Temptation is a perversely attractive energy that appears persistently in your life until it has been resolved or healed. If you give in to temptation, please remember to avoid guilt and shame, as those energies will just fester and create all kinds of negative internal side-effects. Instead, take advantage of the power of compassion and forgiveness. Recognize your humanity, and lovingly accept your foibles. Let self-compassion and self-forgiveness support your growth. After all, the fastest way to heal is to compassionately forgive yourself.

The choice between taking responsibility and making excuses is ultimately a choice between empowerment and stagnation. By choosing to take responsibility, you can open yourself up to growth, learning, and the possibility of creating a life that aligns with your deepest values and aspirations. I invite you to let excuses be a thing of the past and choose instead to take full responsibility for every aspect of your life.
