Personal Responsibility

Share on:

You must take personal responsibility. You cannot change the circumstances, the seasons, or the wind, but you can change yourself – Jim Rohn

The school where I work is BIG on personal responsibility and in fact, one of the principals frequently makes personal responsibility messages.  I wish there could be personal responsibility directed to the world.  So often people will blame all the things that are going wrong in their lives on others.  “I don’t have this because he did that,” or “If she would stop doing this, then I wouldn’t do that.”

Sure the things people do will impact us, but it’s up to us to work though it, past it and around it.  We have to do whatever it takes to get OUR stuff done.  Don’t get caught up on what others are doing.  Their choices are just that, THEIR CHOICES.  They are NOT yours, or they shouldn’t be yours.  It’s up to you to do what you need to do and get done what you need to get done.  Focus on you and what you need to do.  Accept responsibility for you and don’t get caught up in the drama of anybody else.
