Do you accept responsibly for your choices in life?

Do you feel in control of your life? No matter how negative events or actions may become, you are the only force that is able to determine the reaction. Often we fail to do this and instead blame the world for our feelings of sadness, rejection, and hopelessness. The reality is that your actions are a choice, and you must claim those feelings and choices. We can be our best cheerleader or worst enemy when it comes to determining the health of our emotions. Do some pep talks with yourself each morning. This will help you develop positive, self-affirming thoughts that will enhance your personal development and growth.

Even when I do not always feel like it over time I have learned to accept responsibility for the things going on around me, and also accept the choices I choose to make as well. It is up to me to know right from wrong, and the good from the bad, and even if I do not always make the Best choice I am accountable for everything going on as well. When we choose to keep on being accountable in time life will change for the better for us as well.

The part of accepting responsibilities for my choices is yes. But at the same time there are those choices or those events that i have had no control off. Positive development goes beyond just accepting the responsibilites to ensure that we learn to live those choices positively.

The only person responsible for my life is ME. I learned this the hard way over the last couple of years.The bad choices I made, and the rection to them is my responsiblity and to this day I am still trying to make sure I don't repeat them or allow anyone else to put me in the position of having to repeat them. Those pep talks you mentioned. They were incredibly difficult to start, and I still have to give myself a kick start every now and then.
