A different context, but I think this is actually a pretty good rule for software engineering. A number of times I was sure a problem was someone elses fault, only for them to find my own silly mistake that I was overlooking. Sometimes the opposite also happens to me. Now I really make sure and typically find the actual root cause of problems before I suggest someone else caused it.
