Free the Monkeys!


It's not my monkey. Everyone, repeat after me, it's not my monkey. Now admit it, you feel better! And this is why! When it's not your monkey, it's not your fault! It's not your issue, not your problem, not your responsibility, not your mess to clean up. It's not my monkey! When it is your monkey, however, you must own it! Fess up, clean it up, make it right. I offer you this mantra not to allow you to shirk your responsibilities, but as a freeing statement when others heap upon you that which is not yours. Let it go. It's not your monkey.

Monkeys are what they are. Even if they're cute, don't ever trust them.
