How To Stop Escaping Responsibility
“You cannot escape the responsibility of tomorrow by evading it today.” (Abraham Lincoln)
A common theme among the vast majority of people is that they are constantly trying to escape responsibility, even though it is one of the key components to creating a high quality life that is filled with meaning.
Why is responsibility important?
Responsibility → Meaning.
At the most basic level, responsibility brings along with it meaning and meaning is what makes life worth living.
Responsibility is the most direct path to personal growth.
By taking 100% responsibility for everything in your life, you hold yourself at an extremely high standard and allow yourself to become in control of everything within your life.
This control means that you can manipulate your life in any such way that you can achieve what it is that you want.
The other side of this coin is to become a victim and victims are always trapped by their lack of control and complaining/blaming.
