Sharing Out the Blame

Work out your real share of something that went wrong, and put down the rest.

Purpose: Work out your real share of something that went wrong, and put down the rest.

When to use: Use this when you are taking the whole weight of something on yourself.

Worksheet prompts

  1. What went wrong, and how much of it are you taking on?
  2. List everyone and everything else that played a part.
    Timing, other people, money, luck, things nobody told you.
  3. Now, what part was actually yours? Say it plainly and stop there.
  4. What would you do differently, knowing what you know now?

Your share is worth owning. The rest was never yours to carry.
