"It's always easy to blame others. You can spend your entire life blaming the world, but your successes and failures are entirely your own responsibility." - Paulo Coelho
Personal responsibility in my mind, is the most important thing to own in order to grow, forgive and live an abundantly happy life. We are so busy blaming our past, our childhood, our lack of education, our financial situation, or whatever excuse we have made up in our minds to stay stuck and miserable.
We dis empower ourselves the moment we believe the lie that our circumstances dictate our happiness. Happiness really is a choice, it is an inside job and it is far to important to assign it to someone or something else.
I think that we are at a point on this planet where we are needing drastic change in our personal development. We have not been taught in our society that there is no quick fix, no magic pill and no magic wand that is going to fix our life, so that is what we are all looking for! We are becoming lazier, fatter, more unhealthy physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually. We are moving forward so fast technologically and we are leaving the heart and the soul behind.
I say enough!!!!
A simple shift in attitude, a simple shift from victim mode is what we need to get back into our personal power. We have the power to do ANYTHING and change EVERYTHING through accepting personal responsibility for how we live our lives.
I find it almost comical that as a solution to our own unhappiness we would rather go to a doctor to prescribe a pill to make us happier rather than dig into our heart and find the reason why we are unhappy in the first place. When did we become so powerless to help ourselves? When did we start settling for misery and struggle as the norm?
Everything that is wrong in our lives today is because of ourselves. (I am not talking about children here, they still need someone else to take responsibility for them.)
I am the responsibility queen, in every shitty circumstance of my life I can see where I am responsible, I am never a victim anymore because I know that the only thing that gives somebody the right to abuse me is me! My happiness and success is in my hands. I forgive anybody who has 'wronged' me because it frees me. I take daily action to look after my body, mind and spirit. I choose how I react to any situation. I choose who I am at my core in every moment. I stand firm on my values and principles. All of this leads to daily freedom and happiness, even if it is a shitty day, because I am in the drivers seat of my life!
You deserve the same! You can do the same! You have all the power within you to be happy and free. Take your power back and claim personal responsibility for your life!
To every problem there is a solution, which means there are only solutions!!

Love this! Couldn't agree more, so many people these days seem unwilling / unable to accept responsibility for their lives and don't take steps to try to make things happen for themselves.
ReplyDeleteThank you Matthew! Yup, lack of personal responsibility disconnects people from their personal power and so they stay stuck.
