In the beginning, it is okay to assign blame to Ego/Satan/some nemesis/what have you, but after accepting the premise that all is interconnected, one has to eventually hold oneself accountable, stare in the mirror, accept fault, learn the lesson, and move on. Anything lesser or harsher is a step back.

If it’s ask interconnected, how can you always be sure it was your fault? Or are you saying that fault is irrelevant, but rather to come to terms that something went wrong and you had some part in it?

(this is all IMHO) In the macro sense, we must always trust that whatever happens, happens for a reason. In the micro sense, from our narrowed perspective, we must act as if we have free will even though that’s a completely unprovable thing. Now my suspicion is that we have free will in one regard: to evolve or not, and if we choose not to, then we experience the same circumstances over and over again. Once again, completely unprovable. But the large degree of fatalism that I accept (aside from that) helps me be compassionate; how can anybody say that everyone has the same opportunity when some are born with damaged brains or no limbs? So yeah all that, plus I believe in reincarnation, simply out of fairness. Sorry if that covered too much. 🙂
