Trust and responsibility

Few things help an individual more than to place responsibility upon him, and to let him know that you trust him.

Can I speak to the manager please?

Who is in charge of your life, your health, your fitness, your education and your voice in the world?

You are!

You are responsible

If you take responsibility for yourself you will develop a hunger to accomplish your dreams.

Les Brown

It is up to you to decide who you are and what kind of life you are living.

Sometimes it helps to think of life as a game. Compare it with role-playing games for example, where you get to choose your character traits and adjust your behaviour accordingly to your beliefs.

Why not to that in real life? Yes, there are difference, but let’s focus on the similarities for now: You can decide who you want to be and you can shape this person according to your likings and beliefs.

This is a huge advantage but also comes with a lot of responsibility.

You have to realise that you have this responsibility and you have to act accordingly. Remember:

If you don’t design your own life plan, chances are you’ll fall into someone else’s plan. And guess what they have planned for you? Not much

With this in mind, enjoy your week!

You are responsible

Accept responsibility for your life. Know that it is you who will get you where you want to go, no one else.

The hunger to improve

If you take responsibility for yourself you will develop a hunger to accomplish your dreams.

It’s your responsibility

I have noticed even people who claim everything is predestined, and that we can do nothing to change it, look before they cross the road.

Take responsibility

The ability to accept responsibility is the measure of the man.

Are you able, and even more important: Are you willing to accept responsibility?

Never underestimate the daily life

I believe that all of us have the capacity for one adventure inside us, but great adventure is facing responsibility day after day.

Charles William Gordon

Happiness

The trouble is that people seem to expect happiness in life. I can’t imagine why; but they do. They are unhappy before they marry, and they imagine to themselves that the reason of their unhappiness will be removed when they are married. When it isn’t they blame the other person, which is clearly absurd. I believe that is what generally starts the trouble.

Nancy Mitford

Misery is easy, happiness takes effort, remember this!

Take responsibility

The proverb warns that ‘You should not bite the hand that feeds you.’ Nut maybe you should, if it prevents you from feeding yourself.
