Taking responsibility

Taking responsibility

A share of the beliefs and perspective on this page those of Anthony Robin. Whose material I will encourage all readers to explore.

How many of us have actually taken responsible of our lives? Would you think the question absurd? Is it presposterous to think that we have not been taking responsibility of our individual lives?

Have you ever thought about how you want to live your life? If you have not thought about that, then can you say that one is responsible for one's life?

Perhaps we need to first to define the word responsibility.

To be responsible is to take control. Yet, in our lives, there are many things beyond our control. Does this mean that it is impossible to be responsible of one's life? It is useful here to make a distinction between external events and internal events. We are not able to control certain external events, but we are able to control our interpretation of it.

There are different ways to face death - fighting to go down, or to be paralysed by the fear.

There are different ways to face life - moving towards your dreams, or to be waiting for things to happen, for death.

What is your choice?

There has been many names - purposeful living, mindful living, meaningful living, But under pinning all of these methods is the idea that that one have to be responsible for one's action and behavior.

We need to take charge of our emotions. Of the way we feel. All too frequently people feel that they are victim of the circumstance. But success is not due to what happened, but rather to what you make of what happened.

Anthony Robin had said that one of the belief that we should espouse is that we create our world. To put it in another way, we need to be take responsibility for the world that we live in. To be responsible for our world is to be able to handle any problems that comes along. The converse is that we will not be able to handle the problems that comes along.






Simply because they are "someone elses problem".

It is never too late to take responsible in our actions, in our beliefs, in our life.
