From With In
Recently I had a conversation with two of my grandchildren on being responsible for their actions, and not to blame others for the choices that they make. I wanted to teach them a lesson that’s important for everyone – young or old. We all make choices in life, which is a part of growing up, but we must learn to take responsibility for our choices. During our conversation I explained to them that they must take ownership of the decisions, actions, and the consequences of their behavior as this is part of being responsible. Many time I’ve seen adults blame others for the decisions that they made, with a “I would not have done…, if you had not been so…,” but, no matter what one may do or not do, as an individual, you and only you are the sole person responsible for your actions! Being responsible builds trust, character, and integrity. It's ok to explain problems or challenges, but not us use them as excuses. It is said that…” Excuses only satisfy the person who gives them.” Everyone make mistake, but the real flex is learning from and growing from them!
And as always, Love, Peace, and Increase… Verna V. Nickelberry
