21. Responsibility

Take full responsibility for your own life and the objectives you set for yourself. The definition of responsibility is the ability to respond. When an event occurs that you would rather had happened differently, a blaming individual will try to say it was soeone else's fault or it was the climate or the economy that is to blame. You, as a responsible person will say I take ownership of this situation. You will not say "I was minding my own business when... happened." You will say "How can I make this situation better ?" You will always focus on the solution rather than the problem or the perpetrator of the crime
