You're in charge of your own life and a larger part of your outcomes than you think. People who lack self accountability tend to run on autopilot. They constantly succumb to external pressure, blame others for their mistakes, and avoid taking responsibility. However, it may not be your fault, but it's your responsibility. There's always something you can do in the moment to better your position tomorrow. Your next action will make the situation better or worse. Clear thinking and self accountability give you the tools and strategies to achieve lasting success.
