If you're HURT...TELL US! | What's REALLY An EXCUSE?
Do you think there is a difference between a reason and an excuse?
There is. For example, you are asked to draw the cover of a Spider-Man magazine. You do not do it in the allocated time frame because you are blind. That is a legitimate reason.
The difference between reasons and excuses is that excuses are used to avoid responsibility.
When a fighter is giving excuses, such fighter is often blaming the opponent rather than taking accountability.
