Where do we place blame?
Something that’s interested me lately is the concept of ‘fundamental attribution error’.
It’s when we blame the ‘failings’ of others on their personality, but we blame the ‘failings’ of ourselves on the context of our situations.
For example, imagine someone cuts you off while on the road. Your first instinct may be to assume they have an arrogant, inconsiderate personality.
But what if you cut another person off while on the road? You might justify it because of situational reasons, e.g. you were unfamiliar with the suburb.
My question to you is: Have you experienced the fundamental attribution error - in the gym or out of the gym?

We started a gym and ended up a home for those wanting to grow and improve. You don't have to stay, but you might make a friend or two. Welcome!
