Take Responsibility for your Decisions

April 11, 2011 by DaveSchappell

I’m a huge fan of Gaping Void — really enjoyed this artwork/cartoon on Acceptance that he posted today:

Text in the artwork:

ACCEPTANCE

You can’t achieve your destiny until you’ve accepted responsibility for it.

I’m as guilty as anyone… Often I’ll be grumpy about my situation even though I knew full well that (A) my situation is pretty darn sweet, actually and (B) I entered into the situation 100% willing.

Sometimes we have to remind ourselves… and keep reminding ourselves.

    It also pays off to remind ourselves that just because others (seemingly) love their situation, it doesn't mean you would feel the same way. "The world" has this amazing way of trying to make you feel down because you don't fit in the norms, but what the hell, make your own world and be happy.
