You are responsible

Yes, you are responsible. Yes, your most powerful, effective choice is to embrace that responsibility.

Avoiding the difficult issues will only make the situation worse. Seeing yourself as a victim will only separate you from your best options.

It’s your life, it’s your future. Take full ownership of your circumstances, of your consequences.

Actively participate as each new moment unfolds, with purpose, integrity, care, and love. Give expression to your values, give life to your dreams, by giving your best, again and again.

Recognize the immense value of opportunity that’s always available to you. Continue to discover the beneficial results of empowering your thoughts, your attitude, and your actions with responsibility.

Yes, responsibility is a serious challenge, one that will impart focus, strength, wisdom, skill, achievement, and an abiding sense of purpose. Yes, you are responsible, and that’s a very good thing.

— Ralph Marston
