The link between the past (and what happened in the past) and what will happen in the future is the present moment. You may want many things but what determines what you will get is what you do. The future may be opened to everyone but how well you live in the present will determine if you will access that future.
Many people are looking for enemies that are outside to blame as the source of their challenges but they forget to look at the enemy within - their own self. If a farmer does not plant when it is time for him to plant, he should not blame his lack of harvest on any other person apart from himself. It is worthy to note that the future and every other good things of life are not usually delivered to people on golden platters. There must be some terms and conditions you should fulfill if you will enjoy the benefits of life.
Most of the good things of life answer to certain principles and most times, these principles may be too simple that they may be overlooked. For example; the principle of having good grades in exam is to have adequate preparation; it is as easy as that. However, some people will just hope that good grades will fall on them by luck, which is not so.
What you did in the time past may be excusable and pardonable because it cannot be edited but you have to be very cautious of what you do today because that will go a very long way to either make or mar your future. You are more affected by your own actions than someone else's actions. If you need to query anyone why things are not working, then the query should be directed at you. You need to figure out why they are not working and that is only when you will know what to do.
When you have zeroed your mind to give excuses, you will not figure out why things are not working. The only thing you will do is to explain that things are not working but you will not know why. Remember, the excuse you give today will not get the solution tomorrow, so leave excuses and focus more on solutions.
No one ever arrives at their own desired future by accident or by incident. Your desired future is not gifted. If you want to see a good tomorrow, then you have to earn it by the actions you put in today. The truth is, it is a collection of actions that gives birth to result. If you must see a good result, then the choice is yours to undertake good actions. This is in affirmation with this very popular quote:
You only reap the harvest your have sown
