100% Responsibility = Power

We live in a world that often refuses to be responsible and to take responsibility. 

As a result, it's common to blame others. 

Lately, in my own life, I've been extra aware of the blaming that takes place around me, especially when I'm guilty of doing the blaming. 

I've noticed two things over and over, . . . 

#1 Blaming positions you as the victim, every time! 

#2 Taking 100% responsibility empowers you, EVERY TIME!

What is 100% Responsibility?

First of all, I want to be 100% clear, taking responsibility is not blaming yourself for everything. It's not taking the fall for everyone else. 

100% Responsibility is taking responsibility for your reality and your part in creating it. 

BEing responsible means accepting that you are the one creating your results and your reality. 

It means that no one is coming to save you or to fix your problems but you. 

It is all up to you, and that's the best news ever!

Blaming puts your focus on things outside of your control, making you the victim.

Taking 100% responsibility puts your focus on things within your control, making you in control. 

That is empowering!

When you are 100% responsible, you have the power to be the change that you are looking for. 

Blaming Turns You Into the Victim. 

Like I said earlier, when you blame others, you shift your focus to things outside of your control. This turns you into a victim. Now, in your mind, you are at the mercy of the person or thing that you are blaming. Rather than having the power to change your circumstances, you depend on others to change. 

I see this a lot with parents who are struggling with their teens. Rather than being 100% responsible, they are willing to be 90% responsible, but they still want to blame their teen for things. 

"I know I'm not perfect, and I'm doing my best, but my teen . . . "

What if, there is no blame, no fault, and no reason for blame or fault. 

That completely frees you up to focus on what you can control. 

So Now What?

#1 Increase Your awareness around responsibility and blaming.

#2 Identify what you can control and take responsibility for that. 

#3 Shift Your Mindset

#4 Practice, practice, practice
