I Am Not The Cause Of Your...

D. Christina

You accomplish life goals, but your Aunt did not due to her failing to put in the work and now out of envy she blames you as to why she cannot accomplish any of her life goals. Your friend of 15+ years publicly disgraced himself, but turned around, and publicly erroneously blamed and defamed you for it. Many people are faced with being blamed for other people's shortcomings. Most of the problems that people face are caused by no other person but themselves. A lot of times it is easy to blame someone else for the cause of the problem rather than take responsibility for one's own actions. For some people it is easy to accept the blame if the blamer provides a compelling reason why their accusation is true and if the person being blamed is not confident enough to put up a strong defense against the accusation. I Am Not The Cause Of Your Problems serves to empower and encourage you when faced with situations of being falsely blamed for other people's problems by providing an understanding that you are not the cause for every problem that other people face and also how to remove yourself from such a situation.  
I Am Not The Cause Of Your Problems will help you to identify behaviors that try to deceive you into thinking you are the cause of other people's problems, to help you begin to stand up for yourself in such a situation, distance yourself from such a situation, recover from erroneously being blamed for other people's problems and to begin a life free from carrying other peoples weight around. You can gain the confidence to stand-up and firmly state: I am not the cause of your problems to anyone who tries to cast blame on you for their own problems.
