When I find myself making excuses and blaming circumstances, such as the economy, for the realities of my life, I try to remember this quote from George Bernard Shaw.

“People are always blaming their circumstances for what they are. I don’t believe in circumstances. The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want, and if they can’t find them, make them.”
