why are more people so quick to point fingers,blame,make examples of,or act as another person...why can't people be themselves why can't people try to work on themselves and how to better there situation instead of trying to change others and/or dwell on other people and words or actions?

People are lazy, just because everyone else is doing something they automatically have to because its what everyone else is doing and they wont have to think about what they do, its there for them. Its like "oh everyone is getting their belly button pierced, i have to too!" Yes i have mine pierced but i wanted it done because I liked it and wanted it done myself, i wasnt just like "oh yeah my friends all have it so i need to too" in fact i was the first one of my group of friends to get it done. I HATE when I hear people say "but everyone else is doing it" so what, YOU arent everyone else, YOU are YOU not them! Get a mind of your own for once, stop being lazy and THINK, dont do it just because its the "in" thing to do, do it because YOU want it, not because THEY have it, or THEY are doing it. If everyone was jumping off a bridge would you do it too? (i know ive always hated that one too but it fits) I hate when people try to ACT like other people, they need to just grow up and get a mind of their own

Because honest self-evaluation is almost impossible, and sometimes we just don't want to face what we are really like. It is easier to look outward and pinpoint what is wrong with others, and we often feel so righteous when we do it too! If we admit what our faults are, then we should change them, and that is the really hard task.

People can easily detect their own weakness if they look within themselves.
To achieve this,they have to live a life of self control.
One should not run away from problems and any inner weakness,rather accept them as challenges and find ways to solve them.

Because they are unable to handle the ways in which they fail. I kind of feel like we live in a society where it is considered wrong to make mistakes and admitting to it would be met with a lot of unkind reactions.
