5 Minute Friday: Stop Chasing Blame
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Blame feels quick, but it’s the slow lane. We dig into why pointing the finger protects the ego while quietly stealing momentum, and how a simple shift—owning the outcome—can speed everything up. Using a real moment from our workflow with a new podcast editor, we show how unclear standards, missing examples, and weak onboarding lead to frustration, and how reframing the problem as our responsibility unlocks practical fixes that stick.
We walk through the “point the thumb” rule and apply it to everyday situations: running late because of a coffee line, snapping in an argument, or assuming a teammate “should have known.” Instead of hunting for who to blame, we ask, “What could I have done to prevent this?” That single question turns excuses into actions: define “done,” write a one-page brief, share before-and-after examples, schedule a quick kickoff, and build a short review loop with clear acceptance criteria. In personal relationships, it looks like pausing before reacting, restating what you heard, and owning your tone and timing before stating what you need.
This conversation isn’t about letting others off the hook; it’s about choosing the only lever you fully control. Responsibility compresses timelines, strengthens trust, and reduces repeat mistakes because it upgrades the system instead of escalating the conflict. Blame stalls; ownership compounds. If you’re ready to move faster toward your goals with less drama and more clarity, this mindset will change your week.
If the message lands, share this episode with a friend who’s ready to swap excuses for action, and subscribe so you never miss Five Minute Friday. Leave a quick review with one area you’re choosing to own today—we’ll feature a few on the next show.

Hey, it's Jordan Edwards here, and we're here for Five Minute Friday. What we're gonna be discussing today is about how blame is the slowest path forward. Blame will protect your ego, but block your growth. How many of you have thought about the last time? I want you to take a moment and think about when was the last time you got into an argument? When was the last time you got upset? When was the last time you got angry? And realize that every time we argue, did you find it? Did you get your moment? I want you to realize that every time we do this, every time we get into a disagreement, it's always you. Whether it's your partner, your parents, loved one, friends, it's a you you issue. And it's not taking full accountability. Because what ends up happening is we blame the other person. I can't believe you did this. You really messed me up. You spun me around. I have no idea why you would do that. Does that sound like some of the bit? And the truth is that when we start taking responsibility, we start to create momentum in our life. So, for example, let's say I have a I have a new person editing my podcast, and he edits the podcast and he does it incorrectly to my standards. And I say to him, that's terrible. Like we can't do that. Like, like that's not the way we should do it. The way I should actually be responding, I can do that, or I could say, Hey, I'm really sorry. I messed up. I didn't explain to you how we should be doing this. I didn't show you the way that we were supposed to handle this. And then you start working towards it because I take full responsibility. When it's your project, your family, your house, your dog, your family, you take full responsibility. The blame cannot be happening. You should never be blaming anyone. When you blame people, it creates excuses. And that gets you further away from the life you want and it delays the life you want. So I want you to, and Gary Vanderchuck said this instead of pointing the finger, point the thumb so you can take accountability. I want all of us today to take one moment and realize that it's our fault. Don't blame others, blame ourselves. Oh my God, I'm late from work because the Duncan line was too long. What do you mean? You didn't have to go there. Like, we have to take accountability. We can't keep blaming others, and we have to blame ourselves. The more we blame ourselves, the more we will get done and the closer we will get to our goals. So I hope you have an incredible, incredible five minute Friday. And you can shoot me an email at Jordan at Edwards.consulting, and I look forward to connecting very soon. Thank you and have an incredible, incredible day.
