Do You Take Responsibility?

"Action springs not from thought but from a readiness for responsibility."~Dietrich Bonhoeffer

Are you ready for the responsibility that will be required with the action you want to take?

Is that holding you back? Why? There are consequences to every action we take and we must be ready to take the responsibility for those actions. Our current society will allow us to shirk that responsibility. You bought a house you can't afford? That's ok. You've spent more money than you make? That's alright.

Maybe the quote should read "Correct action springs from a readiness for responsibility."

This wasn't as big a problem in the early 19th century. It was an understood value. We seem to have lost that value today.

Are you ready for the responsibility that will be required with the action you want to take?

"Action springs not from thought but from a readiness for responsibility."
