What is Responsibility?

 

It should be your responsibility to lead ... in a way that's going to be beneficial to others... all their lives, not just through their athletic days.

John Wooden

Responsibility is the social force that binds us to a course of action demanded by social force or personal conscience.

I must do something" always solves more problems than "Something must be done."  ~Author Unknown

The willingness to accept responsibility for one's own life is the source from which self-respect springs.  ~Joan Didion

Lesson 6 Perspective:

The purpose of this lesson is to argue for the worth of social and moral responsibility.  Social responsibility deals with the duties and obligations that one has to the social construct of society.  Moral responsibility has to do with the duties and obligations that one has to all of the individuals who each and every one of us comes in contact with.  How we treat people and how we do the work and business of our lives is a direct reflection on our ability to be responsible human beings and thus honorable servant leaders.

Every man must decide whether he will walk in the creative light of altruism or the darkness of destructive selfishness. This is the judgment. Life's persistent and most urgent question is 'What are you doing for others?" Martin Luther King.
