Accept Responsibility and Create Power

“But until a person can say deeply and honestly, “I am what I am today because of the choices I made yesterday,” that person cannot say, “I choose otherwise.” – Stephen Covey

When you place the blame for where you are in life on something external to yourself then you have accepted that you have no power over that circumstance and are destined to remain the same.

However, when you personally accept the responsibility for where you are you actually give yourself the power to create change because your choices ARE within your control.

Making those choices isn’t always easy, but they are yours to make. That, in itself, is powerful.
