What’s your excuse?

What’s your excuse?

‘I’m not good enough.

I’m not smart enough.

I’m not strong enough.

I can’t do it.

I’m scared.

My friends will laugh at me.

My family will laugh at me.

What will my parents think?

What will my friends think?

What will my partner think?

What will my kids think?

What will the world think?

It’s my parents’ fault I’m this way.

It’s my friends’ fault I’m this way.

It’s too difficult.

I’m going to fail.

It’s hard.

I don’t know anyone who’s done that.

What if my boss is right?

What if I can’t do it?

I’m too busy.

I’ll do it later.

I’ll do it tomorrow.

It doesn’t matter.

No one will care.

I’m waiting for the right time.


I’m not ready yet.

I’ll lose.

I’m doing too many things.

No one I know has ever done that so how could I?

I missed my chance.

Something got in the way.

I’m too tired.

Work is so busy.

I don’t have time.’

What’s your excuse?
