Day 56 - Responsibility

Personal responsibility starts on the inside. We must begin by taking responsibility for our thoughts, choices and reactions.

Reflection
  • Responsibility gives us the ability to design a life that honors our values and purpose.
  • The quality of our communities starts with us.
Action
  • How can you be more responsible for helping others in your community?
  • Write down three steps you can take to improve the quality of your community and take one step today.
“Accept responsibility for your life. Know that it is you who will get you where you want to go, no one else."
Les Brown
“You must take personal responsibility. You cannot change the circumstances, the seasons, or the wind, but you can change yourself. That is something you have charge of.”
Jim Rohn
“Wherever you are, be there totally. If you find your here and now intolerable and it makes you unhappy, you have three options: remove yourself from the situation, change it, or accept it totally. If you want to take responsibility for your life, you must choose one of those three options, and you must choose now. Then accept the consequences.”
Eckhart Tolle
“We are made wise not by the recollection of our past, but by the responsibility for our future.”
George Bernard Shaw
