Explanation vs self justification - Duration: 2:30.

Hi!

My name is Andrei Adonis and my question to you is

What can we do, in order to challenge the status quo

on how we see ourselves and other people so that we can become better versions of ourselves?

Today's topic is What is the difference between an

EXPLANATION and SELF-JUSTIFICATION?

When are we explaining something and when are we self-justifying our actions?

The answer is rather simple!

A SELF-JUSTIFICATIONS is when we give an answer to a question that was never asked!

Let us look at some examples.

Let us say that you work in a company and you are

responsible for a project.

Scenario Nr. 1.

Your boss comes to you and says: Dear employee, I've noticed that this project

has come to a stop!

And scenario Nr. 2.

Your boss comes to you and says: Dear employee, I've noticed that this project

has come to a stop.

What has happened?

Do you see the difference?

In the first part, there is an implicit question.

Yet, the question is never asked!

So, what happens to us?

We take the psychological pressure and we feel the need to JUSTIFY our actions.

Why did the project stop...

Who is responsible for it... and What is going to happen...

Instead of doing that, we could just simply say

Yes, the project has stopped.

We are working on it and t will start next week.

If the question is asked by your boss, Why it has stopped? or What has happened?

then you can proceed to give an EXPLANATION to what has happened.

It has stopped because of such and such and such reasons

and this is what it is going to happen.

These are the actions that we are going to take.

This is the difference between an EXPLANATION

and a SELF-JUSTIFICATION.

So, I would like to invite you, in the future, not to fall in the SELF-JUSTIFICATION trap.

Wait for the question to be asked!

And if the question is not asked, ASK the question yourself.

What do you mean? or What do you want to know?
