Self Responsibility

Welcome.
There is only one person responsible for the quality of your life.That person is you.
You cannot change the circumstances, the seasons or the wind but you can change yourself. Therefore you must take responsibility for the quality of your life--- Jim Rohn.
Your willingness and capacity to discipline Yourself to accept personal responsibility for your life are vital to success, happines, health, your personal progress and leadership. One of the hardest components of discipline is accepting responsibility but without it, no progress or success is possible.
Failure to embrace responsibility and impose it, for things in your life that make you happy, on external circumstances such as other people, institutions weakens your resolve and character. It takes very great self discipline for you to accept total responsibility for everything that happens to you.
Even if you are not directly responsible for what happens, you are responsible for how or what you do in response to what happened. Self responsibility is essential to self-esteem. It is also a reflection and manifestation of self esteem.
Men do make their own history--- but---under given and imposed conditions --- Karl Marx.
Till next time when we shall be reading a new episode, remember to always get better and become the best version of yourself.
