  2. Accepting responsibility is a sign of personal growth and maturity. • It is definitely not a sign of weakness.

  3. Realize that everything you do has consequences. Try to show good judgment and exercise emotional control in any given situation. • Stop trying to assign blame when something bad occurs. What has happened has happened… the situation already exists… and it doesn’t do you any good to try to pin down who was at fault. Instead, accept, try to forgive and forget, and do what you need to do to get past the moment.

  4. Forgive yourself. If you’ve made mistakes, admit that they were your fault and make any necessary apologies. Then let it go and move on. Dwelling on mistakes only makes them more important than they should be. • Don’t keep making excuses, even if you feel the need to explain why you did what you did. Excuses hold you back, and you are not accepting responsibility if you continue to try to justify your actions.

  5. Try to keep away negative thoughts. Negativity is a drain on your emotions and your intellect. Positive thinking creates positive energy that will help you leave the situation behind and move forward. • Don’t succumb to the victim mentality. A victim has no power and no control over anything, and that is not the type of person you want to be. Self empowerment has to come from within.

  6. Admit that you might not be right. Although it may hurt your pride in the short term, acknowledging that you’re wrong can help you see other options and approach the problem or situation in an entirely new direction.

  7. Questions – Answer as True or False • I do what needs to be done. • I am reliable and dependable • I am accountable for my actions; I don’t make excuses or blame others. • I fulfill my moral obligations • I use good judgment and think through the consequences of my actions. • I exercise self-control
