Being Responsible in an Irresponsible World
Responsibility is necessary for success because success in history was built on the
backs of responsible people and behind every successful accomplishment was
responsibility. Personal responsibility means that I have to be disciplined, organized, and
faithful to my cause while staying above reproach in every aspect of my life. In an effort
to be responsible in every aspect of my life I must be successful in college. To be
successful in college I cannot just show up to class and hope for the best. I have to be
organized and have a simple but effective plan to make me a responsible successful
college student.
Personal responsibility means that I have to be disciplined, organized, and faithful
to my cause while staying above and beyond reproach. What I mean by staying above
and beyond reproach is simply to do the best I can without cutting corners while having
strong ethical rooted beliefs and then being able to apply them. I need to be disciplined
to do my work whatever that consists of. I need to schedule a time and place every week
to do my homework so I do not get behind. I need to be organized and know when
everything is due and know where all of my things are. An organized person should
always be ready for the unexpected which can be challenging. Unexpected things do
come up and when they do there needs to be a way for the organized mind to let go of
control and adapt to the situation. Lastly, I need to be faithful to my cause. Without
believing what I am doing there is no reason to do it. I need to know why I am doing
what I am doing at all times so I can agree and succeed with what I am doing.
