Accountability

Word of the Day..... Accountability......n.,....obligation or willingness to accept responsibility for one's actions. We ALL have accountability. Like it or not, you have obligations you need to take into your sphere of life. And when OR if you drop the ball, then baby, you need to admit it. Be honest, fair and truthful. Every day you should hold yourself accountable for each and every action you take. Did you accept your duties with grace? Did you accept them with decency? If you did, then GOOD JOB. If you didn't, or if you took a wrong turn did you admit the mistake? Or did you hide behind a tree and pass the fall-out on to the guy sitting next to you? Don't instruct young people that they will EVER be able to shove their responsibilities on the backs of friends or family or coworkers.....that they are better than those around them, and will always be that way. They need to be shown hard work and effort. Do you realize that at some point someone will mimic your behavior? If you LIVE un-accountability then you TEACH un-accountability to your children or whomever watches your life. Free will equals accountability. You have a liability to your family, your coworkers, your neighbors and those who are in true need. Don't teach what can't be lived with honesty. Humans are frail and each and every one of us will at some point in life fail. Step up to that plate and admit it. And by admitting, you have won! You have learned! And more importantly you have coached, educated, informed and trained.
