Responsibility

Responsibility

Responsibility is the topic that I chose. Responsibility means the most to me out of the words to choose from because it is something that I am going through right now. I have a lot of personal responsibility that I need to complete and hold myself accountable to every day if I want to achieve the goals that I do want to achieve. Responsibility is a personal job that nobody else can do for you, yet it is the most important trait for being successful because it helps in every aspect of your life.

My opinion on this topic is that 90% of teenagers in our area are lacking responsibility. I believe this is purely because there is no sense of urgency or necessity to become something because they believe that everything will be handed to them. The sad part about this is that most things will be handed to them because of the parents and people they were born into. Responsibility helps you be content with your personal accomplishments rather than the accomplishments around you. Being happy with your personal accomplishments ultimately creates happiness.

For example, I have Russian workouts every day that require me to push my limit. These workouts are specially designed for me by my trainers in Arizona to maximize my potential. There are two ways these workouts can go and both are just based off of my attitude. I can either have a great vision of where these workouts are taking me and do them 100% even though they test my mental strength because of how much they hurt or I can skip a workout every now and then and become average. The workouts I do every day consist of multiple parts including a brief workout when I first wakeup, then a main workout after lunch and then I am required to sleep with my machine on at night. It is a grind but there is no better feeling than when I complete them and hold up my responsibility to being the best. In closing, responsibility can either help or hurt every aspect of your life and I believe it is one of the most important values to possess.

  1. WOW, a machine at night. Kind of scary to me. You are definitely showing responsibility in doing all of that each day. I do have to bring your attention to your statement "90% of teenagers in our area" because I'm wondering what that is based on. I always take issue with anyone that wants to make blanket statements about the teens at SRVHS. So watch it buster when you want to pick on my peeps here at SRVHS!!!
