Examine Your Excuses

What are your excuses?
​
I know that there are some things in our lives that we just don't want to do. Maybe someone asks us to help with something or we have to go to an event, and we just simply don't want to. But, instead of being honest and saying so, we often come up with an excuse of why we "can't." Wouldn't it be easier to just say what we're thinking instead of a white lie?


I think it's very important to prioritize, especially during this time, when we want to keep ourselves, our families, and others safe. We want to make wise decisions. The problem comes when we make up an excuse or use our circumstances as a scapegoat.

Unfortunately, hasn't COVID provided the perfect scapegoat if we don't want to do something? I know some people are honestly concerned, but let's not pretend we are concerned in order to back out of doing things, interacting with others, or just simply living. 

My challenge for you is to start thinking of the real reasons, the honest truth reasons, before you say no to something, and communicate that reason instead of making up an excuse.
