Very wired topic to give a gyan but here I want to connect my previous blogs: Colors of life,
Excuses and client relationship management with a key point of successor.
Responsibility a common word but do we understand its grip in
success of life and career?
Responsibility really is ability to respond or disability to
respond to different situations in life. People who are being labelled as
irresponsible are not really reckless or selfish, but rather unable to respond
to a given life situation in a firm, decisive and positive way. But what are
we responsible for?
Outer circumstances can never be changed, or at least not
rapidly. We can however influence our own life experience, but it is hard to
make it stop raining one afternoon just because you would prefer sunshine. All
we can do is respond to the rain and hence take responsibility for creating a
more positive attitude towards it. Instead of thinking about how wet we get, we
can deliberately guide our thoughts to appreciate the flowers and forests
getting the water they need, how the soil is getting more fertile, because
whether you like it or not, the rain will pour down, so start liking it will
make your own life experience better.
Being a single person in your team of life, you are the
whole responsible to take your own responsibilities, but being a team member in
the corporate business world each one has a duty to take care of. A team leader
has many responsibilities of their team but at the same time it is the team who
makes it easier with taking the responsibility. Most of the time we depend on
others to give a finishing hand to the work done but what if we do that taking
that responsibility at the first place.
In simple terms the
ability to act independently and take decisions in life, leading self rather
than giving excuses to escape, also a thing which one required to do as part of
a job or legal obligation.
Taking new responsibilities makes us a step ahead of what we
are to what we can. There may be ups and down with those responsibilities but
if you want to change things better try to be responsible rather than not to
be....
