Subtitle: How Forgiveness Forges the Path to Wholeness
Blame On vs. Game On
Blame On: Holding others responsible for our pain, replaying past hurts, and seeking revenge or compensation.
Game On: Accepting responsibility, forgiving (even intentional harm), and moving forward with clarity and purpose.
The Cost of Unforgiveness
Blame is easy, but it keeps us stuck.
Not forgiving is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to suffer.
Emotional stagnation affects personal and professional growth.
My Journey: From Stagnation to Action
Transitioned from a state job to a nonprofit mental health center in 2017.
Excitement turned to struggle—new program, shifting professional views, and team dynamics.
Conflict arose when my vision clashed with my supervisor’s, causing stress and misalignment.
When Your Vision Clashes with Leadership
If you're experiencing a conflict between your mission and your supervisor’s expectations:
Clarify the mission – Compare your understanding with official statements.
Communicate openly – Have a formal/informal discussion to align expectations.
Create an action plan – Identify steps to promote mission clarity in your team.
Engage leadership – Determine how to support the broader organizational goals.
What If Your Values Are in Conflict?
Ask yourself: Is it a misunderstanding, or a fundamental values misalignment?
Seek clarity through honest conversations.
Consider discussing the issue with higher leadership—but weigh potential repercussions.
A life coach can help you explore options and develop an actionable path forward.
Moving From Blame to Action
Blame keeps you powerless; taking ownership creates momentum.
Coaches ask tough questions, provide accountability, and help you build a concrete plan.
Inaction is still a choice—with consequences.
