Your power often begins one question after “whose fault was it?”

The question of fault has a limited amount of value and then becomes a place to stand still. What follows it is where things start moving: what now, what is possible, what do I control. Most people stop one question too early.

Next time you catch yourself working out whose fault something is, notice when you have the answer and then keep going. Ask what you want to happen next and what would move toward it. The second question is where the actual power lives.
