Do you, as young people of today, feel like most things that happen to
you are someone else's fault? Even worse, do you blame someone or
something else for your problems before you take responsibility for it
yourself?
For example, I asked my son "How did the DVD get
scratched?" He says "I don't know, I wasn't watching it." "OK, but did
you put it back in its case where it belongs?" He said "I just left it
near the TV so I could watch it later."
"Did it fall on the floor at anytime, while you had it next to the TV."
He
said, "Yes, but I picked it up and put it right back on the side of the
TV where it was sitting" "Son, do you think it could have gotten
scratched when it slid across the floor, because I'm assuming that's
what happened by the skid marks on the DVD?".
"How did you know that's what happened MOM?... You're so good," he said.
"Yes, baby I am and you're so grounded for not telling me the truth from the beginning," I said.
"Now, go to your room."
It's
funny, but that's an example of how most young people think about their
actions nowadays. If you don't directly MEAN to do, then it wasn't your
fault.
Here's the problem with this kind of attitude. If you
never acknowledge the problem, you don't even understand that there is
one. So, if you don't realize that there is a problem, you're going to
repeat it until you do realize it. That'll create a cycle of repeated
bad habits and behaviors that will cause bad consequences and a loss of
friends.
Instead, here are three steps to getting better at taking responsibility for your actions:
1. Think Before You Do Anything.
Have
you ever heard the words "Think before you speak." Well, I'm going to
take it one step further and say "Think before you DO." Take the time to
get your thoughts together and plan your actions. Ask questions to make
yourself think about the consequences.
For example, if you're
suppose to be in the house by midnight and you know you want to go
somewhere that might make you late, ask for permission to come in at a
later time, so you don't break curfew. Take responsibility for your
activities, so you don't lose your freedom.
