Success involves avoiding the lure of making excuses.

About This Quote

Making excuses for things that you have done wrong in the past, or blaming others when you have failed, is a common habit of people who don’t want to take responsibility for their actions. We all make mistakes, but the key is to learn from them and move on. That doesn’t mean that you have to live with regret – that’s just the way it is – but rather that you can learn from your mistakes and move on. If you keep making excuses for your shortcomings every time you fail, then what will be the point of success?
