Every right has its responsibilities.
People who do things without being told draw the most wages. Yes!
Responsibility is proportional to opportunity.
“I’ve got this,” is a phrase that some people will go out of their way to avoid saying.
At work, where it’s incredibly valuable, or in personal relationships, where it creates deep connection.
What is your responsibility preference?
When things go wrong, is your instinct to hide in a corner and hope you won’t get noticed – or to lean into the situation and make it clear that this one is on you?
Like our control preference, responsibility is a learned skill.
You might be born with an instinct for it, but mostly it’s something we’re taught or choose to learn.
There is work to be done. Responsibilities to be met.
A bias toward taking responsibility is one of the most important things to look for when hiring an employee, finding a doctor, appointing a CEO, building a team or making that next dent in the universe.
Humanity needs the ability of every woman and man.
We are not put here on earth to play around. Out of responsibility comes possibility.
And we can all be possibilitarians!
