I AM RERSPONSIBLE

I AM RERSPONSIBLE
I AM RESPONSIBLE
I am responsible for me and my actions because I have freedom of choice! A hard lesson to accept and learn.
“I am responsible for myself, my recovery, my well-being, my happiness. All these things are, ultimately, my own responsibility.”
--Anonymous
Our creator and/or our basic make-up gave each of us free will; an ability to make choices. We can choose not to be responsible and make ourselves more miserable by going to new levels of despair and depression. Or we can seize every opportunity for a better life. We are responsible.
When we make a decision to choose a more mentally healthy way of life, we are generally very confused. We welcome support. Many of us are fed up with our lives and would freely turn them in for a different model. We have to learn to put into action what we will learn. We are responsible.
Taking responsibility for ourselves is a new way of thinking for many. It does not come naturally; it is taught and then put into practise through personal actions. I believe in this life there is a power greater than myself (spiritual) and call it what you want. One of the joys in being me is that I have the freedom to make choices. Through learning new skills and putting them into action as best I can, I can now take full responsibility for me.
It is up to me to insure that my spiritual life is healthy and that I stay in tune with this power greater than me. I follow no religion but do pray to better understand the direction of this higher power and meditate, listen to others and listen to that small quiet voice that dwells within to get direction. That is one of my responsibilities.
Each day I must remember that I have free will and I am responsible for my choices. I historically went too often against what the small quiet voice inside told me until I almost suppressed it from my conscious awareness. Today I listen more attentively and try to use my freedom of choice responsibly. Want to move toward that direction and be more responsible? (www.coached-to-success.com)
