Being responsible is choosing our own actions, we are responsible for everything that we do and say. I know that all of the things that have happened in my life for the most part is because i have been irresponsible in many aspects of my life. Responsibility is not just for ourselves but also as a normal part of society. You must be responsible in all aspects of your life including work, school, social life, or whatever it may be. We have responsibility in every choice that we make regardless of what it is, and we must face the consequences of what we do when it is wrong. Responsibility may not necessarily be our actions but also our inaction or not doing something that we now we should. You have to take responsibility for your actions, and thoughts, your work, and take responsibility for your mistakes.

Responsibility is in every part of our lives, to have better lives we must be responsible and respect ourselves and also others. If you show people that you are a responsible adult they will probably put more trust in you and give you more respect. An example would be being on time shows your boss that the can rely on you, and also that you are serious about your job. It may not be overly helpful when you first start but over time in the workplace being responsible can lead to advancement and pay raises or bonuses. If you go to school being on time everyday and completing assignments in the time they give you, you will not only advance in the programs or courses you are taking, but you also set yourself up for success later in life as well. Responsibility can vary on the types that there are. Personal responsibility can be anything from saving money for something you need, instead of spending it on a new phone, computer, or something as simple as a soda or pack of gum a ta gas station. Going to sleep early to be rested for work, also something you wouldn’t have to do but you’ll perform better at work or school and your daily life. or setting aside enough time to complete tasks whether your own or given to you by somebody else. Being responsible also relates to honesty and respect. If you are not responsible chances are you won’t be respectful and honest towards others but also yourself.

There are also several types of responsibility, Personal- being responsible for your own thoughts and actions that primarily doesn’t include others. In order to be a part of normal society we must show responsibility in the things we do, we shouldn’t skip a day of work or school just because we want to. Will you have immediate consequences for skipping, maybe not, but it can start a path that leads to being irresponsible in more areas of your live. Moral- something you may not be personally responsible for but, is the right thing to do. If you have money to spare and see somebody sitting on a sidewalk begging for change are you personally responsible for them being poor and having to beg-no. Is it the right thing to do-yes. Not only is it the right thing to do but you should feel better about yourself knowing that you helped somebody else. Social- something that society expects from you as a whole. Just because you are in a group doesn’t mean whatever they are doing is right. If a big group pf your friends are walking down the street an they are cussing, making rude gestures at bystanders, or making fun of people as they are walking by it doesn’t make it right just because you are in a group.

Responsibility is reflected by our choices in whatever we do everyday. Were not born with responsibility it is something that we learn over time, some better and more quickly than others. We are also responsible for accepting the consequences of our actions when we do something wrong. Some people have shown a lack of responsibility by using drugs. We know that it is against the law to use drugs and we also know the effects that they can have on us physically, emotionally, and mentally. Being responsible can be the things that we do, but also things others do as well. If you are hanging out with friends and they want to do drugs and break the law continuing to be around such people is also a lack of responsibility. You now that you shouldn’t be there but a lot of people wouldn’t think anything of it.

You must show responsibility with the people you are around whether it’s just family or your friends or coworkers. Being around people that aren’t responsible will just bring you down. When you have good personal responsibility we have control of our own lives and we understand that people will not and shouldn’t do the things we have to do for us.
