Don't Blame Your Behaviour on Someone Else. You are 100% Responsible for Your Actions No Matter How Bad Your Feeling or Whats Happening in Your Life.
— Anonymous
I’m going, to be honest with you.
In my early days, I really struggled with the idea of being a 100% responsible for my actions and results. I grew up around friends and relatives who tended to blame every force outside of themselves for their circumstances and life. It feels like a reasonable thing to do. After all, if you're in a full-time job and you're not being paid enough, then it's your employer's fault that you have more month at the end of your money. You're gaining weight because you don’t have the time to eat well and
exercise. If there was more time in the day you would. You can't talk to that beautiful woman. What if she rejects you. She needs to be more friendly, and maybe then you would walk over and talk to her.
Evil Doers take responsibility, this could be you some day.
Then one day it dawned on me.
Most of us have been conditioned to blame circumstances outside of ourselves especially for parts if our lives were not happy with. We blame the government, the economy, our boss, our friends, and our family. And we conveniently never look at where the problem really lies, and that's with us.
We must be fully responsible for who we are and the results we have in our lives. There are many things we have no control over, but the one thing we do have complete dominion over is how we respond to those forces. How we think and act.
Making excuses does not empower us.
Do or do not. There is no try.
Yoda
To be the best we can be we have to give up on all our excuses, all our victim stories, all the reasons why you can’t and all your blaming of outside circumstances.
You have the power. The only power that matters to transform your life. It’s all down to you.
Why we have never chosen to use that power before now, is not important. What is important is that we believe through our actions that we are responsible for every result we experience in our life. And when the outcomes are adverse, we need to ask ourselves what did We do to cause this result? What can I do or not do, next time to get the result I’m looking for?
Our actions and our thoughts are the only things we can direct, and we do that by creating a purpose.
A definite purpose.
One that is big, bold and brassy.
A purpose you are committed to, come what may.
With that purpose in place, you accept all your results good and bad, recognizing its all down to you. The more you embrace that principle - and trust me its a hard pill to swallow, the more freedom you begin to experience in your life. If you believe that you have created the circumstance you are presently in, then you can build it and then uncreate it at will.
That blew my mind.
I had to repeat it to myself.
If you believe that you have created the circumstance you are presently in, then you can build it and then uncreate it at will.
When I talk about this 100% responsibility ‘ting’ with most people, the aspect that throws them is the uncertainty involved in this kind of life philosophy. They can’t conceive of creating a goal or going for a dream that has a possibility of failure. What they don’t understand is the freedom you gain with your responsibility. The outcome doesn’t have to be assured, but you know, you will achieve it, if you do whatever it takes. And that means transforming yourself
into the kind of person required to accomplish the goal you have set for yourself.
Your life only gets better when you do. Work on being 100% responsible and the rest will follow.
The world fell in love with her in the movie. Now, the Black Panther's techno-genius sister launches her own adventures — written by best-selling Afrofuturist author Nnedi Okorafor and drawn by Eisner-nominated artist Leonardo Romero! The Black Panther has disappeared, lost on a mission in space. And in his absence, everyone's looking at the next in line for the throne. But Shuri is happiest in a lab, surrounded by gadgets of her own creation. She'd rather be testing gauntlets than throwing them. But a nation without a leader is a vulnerable one — and Shuri may have to choose between Wakanda's welfare and her own.
