The Four Pillars of Integrity: Take Responsibility

The first pillar of integrity is taking radical responsibility and moving away from blaming and criticizing. By taking responsibility for our own experiences and being accountable for our own actions, we can experience a surge of energy and aliveness. Blaming others or external circumstances diminishes our vitality. We need to recognize that we are not the cause of other people's experiences and shift our focus to our own responses and choices.
