How to Blame Correctly

Do you know how to blame? Of course you do. Who doesn’t? We all learn when we are infants. Some of us start to blame by pointing fingers even before we have the ability to speak. So blaming seems pretty easy to do, right? But knowing how to blame well requires more knowledge and practice. The Blame Game book is a new look at the history and techniques in blaming. The Blame Game book has a focus on teaching. There are several new types of blames that are delineated, including blatant blames, innocent blames, casual blames, reflex blames, deceitful blames, subtle blames and silent blames. So how to blame also depends on who you are blaming and what is the purpose of the particular blame. Things to consider include: is this blame for the purpose of relieving myself of responsibility? Is this blame for the purpose of advancing my career? Is this blame for ruining someone’s chance of winning an election? Is the blame to hurt someone else, help yourself or both? Even after you learn how to blame, you will still be hurting yourself every time you blame.

When you focus on proper techniques, keep in mind that what seems to be obvious may not be the case. Even when we are sure that we know who’s to blame, we might be wrong. So, in learning how to blame, we should also learn how to forgive. While blaming has many negative consequences for both the blamer and the blamee, forgiveness leads to many health and wellness benefits of which you can take advantage.

Learning how to blame and how to forgive can be accomplished by reading The Blame Game.
