Urkel-Responsibility

  The way I define personal responsibility is by taking fault for what you have done or taken part in. For instance making bad decisions and not admitting to the choices you have made would show that you have lack of responsibility and many people will not trust you. I feel responsibility is a big deal and not taking part to be responsible can show imatureness. It is very important and can modify the way people think about you. In other words it is accepting the consequences from the actions you have chosen and realizing that it can affect the people around you.

  Knowing to take responsibility if something had happen is easy especially if you took part in it. Like say for example you and a sibling took something from your mother, the reason you bear some responsibility for it is because you were with them and had taken part in trying to succeed. Whatever the situation may be if you planned it or even took any part in doing something you have to take responsibility for your actions. Even if the consequences are unbearable you have to deal with them because at that moment that is the decision you made.

  Personal responsibility is very important and it proves how much you have grown up instead of using pity excuses. It shows how much you had grown from when you were little and used to point fingers. Personal responsibility shows that you acknowledged the choices you make in your life and depending on the type of choices you make it is having to deal with the penalties.
