Finding Fault in Others

This morning I did some self reflections and realised that it is easy for humans to see fault in other people
but are often blinded by their own mistakes. And I am not an exception. I often put blame in other people first when something gone wrong. And next step, will be to victimised myself. This is a bad habit, I knew it but I didn't realise that constant complaining doesn't gain you respect but in return, make people distant themselves away from you.

Take the recent incident for example, the boss commented us about with the regards of our project management. We were defensive and were fast to point blames to the bosses for being indecisive about their decision. But when we had our discussion with her, I came to realise that the project were given to our team mate in mid of December but she only started the project in January. Her reason was, it due to Christmas and everyone was off for holidays. But what the boss expected was a proper justification and the implications by the delays.

This incident taught me to look at things at a broader approach. Look beyond our reasoning. Keep calm and stay positive instead of draining my energy and create unnecessary stress by complaining. And to also do self reflection to see if we are at fault and think about ways to prevent the same thing from happening. And lastly, apologise, put aside the conflicts and just move on.
