Phrase one's own doing
Text The phrase "(one's) own doing," in this podcast, means one's own fault, resulting from one's own actions or decisions: "If you don't have any close friends, it's your own doing. Why aren't you friendlier when you meet people?" The phrase "to take some doing" means to be difficult and to require a lot of work: "Yes, we can finish the project by Tuesday, but it's going to take some doing." The phrase "to make (something) (one's) own" means to personalize or change something in some way: "When Wally moved into his college dorm, he tried to make the room his own by painting the walls and hanging interesting posters." Finally, the phrase "on (one's) own" means alone, without help from other people: "Did you draw this on your own, or did you copy someone else's drawing?"
