Responsibility

Below are quotes from two different men from two different periods of history and each achieved success in a different arena. Each has come to the same conclusion.

"The price of greatness is responsibility." — Winston Churchill, Statesman, Prime Minister of England during WWII

In the old days, words like sin and Satan had a moral certitude. Today, they're replaced with self-help jargon, words like dysfunction and antisocial behavior, discouraging any responsibility for one's actions.." — Don Henley
Singer/Songwriter/ Founding member of the Eagles

One way to determine those who don’t take responsibility is to see who they blame when something doesn’t work out - themselves or others. Politicians come to mind when I think about this.
