Who is Responsible for the Quality of Your Life?

Responsibility for the course of your life rests in your hands.

So many things you come across in life are telling you the opposite...

"It's not in your genes"

"If it's such a good idea, how come no one else thought of it"

"There's too much risk involved in doing that..."

etc.

This is still no argument against the fact that YOU and ONLY YOU are responsible for your life.

Your past is not responsible, the people you work for are not responsible, the government is not responsible and your family is not responsible.

YOU are 100% responsible.

How scary is this?

Very.

But it's also the greatest realisation in the world.

You can have ANYTHING YOU WANT.

Every resource you need is out there.

You can carry out any action (within your physical limitations) to achieve your desires.

If someone else has done it. You can do it as well. Most of the people who have achieved the most STARTED WITH NOTHING.

They are driven. Because THEY KNOW that they are ultimately responsible for EVERYTHING in their lives.

So how does this realisation affect YOU?

It means you need to start defining what you want from life and working towards it.

You are still responsible even if you choose not to define what you want. In this case you will just be responsible for; feeling average, producing uncertainty, producing average results and ultimately living an average life.

Your life may even be defined by someone else who has taken more responsibility than you.

It's your CHOICE... how are you going to live your life?
