The question for each man to settle is not what he would do if he had means, time, influence and educational advantages; the question is what he will do with the things he has. The moment a young man ceases to dream or to bemoan his lack of opportunities and resolutely looks his conditions in the face, and resolves to change them, he lays the corner-stone of a solid and honorable success. - Hamilton Wright Mabie
What is success? Most
people would define success in terms of achieving goals, acquiring wealth, and
having prestige, favor, status, and power. "Successful" people enjoy
the "good life" - being financially secure, emotionally secure, being
surrounded by admirers, and enjoying the fruits of their labor.
Success is measured and
defined differently by God. God's measure of success involves our obedience and
faithfulness to Him, regardless of opposition and personal cost. His
measure of success is whether or not we are being loyal to Him in our personal
relationship with Him and in our life, and whether we are accomplishing His goals
and purposes for our life
When I say that someone is
responsible, I mean that I am declaring that person to be the primary cause of
something. I am saying that they are the creator and author of it through their
choices. I make no comment on the quality, usefulness, or advisability of that
choice.
Therefore;
- · You are totally responsible for your life and choices because, no one can live your life for you. You are in charge. No matter how hard you try to blame others for the events of your life, each event is the result of your choices.
