RE: What's the point

in Reflectionslast year

Ownership, responsibility and discipline breaks bad habits...laziness does not; I agree that upbringing can have a bearing, but ultimate responsibility lies with the individual.

I appreciate you giving a personal example of the concept I have raised here; I also understand that doing the right thing can be subjective, but it's an interesting subject don't you think? Those who are doing the wrong thing by others possibly think they're doing the right thing for themselves I guess right? we each need to reflect on ourselves generally...however when performing a job function there's a different responsibility I guess...and that's where integrity comes into it.

Thanks for commenting.

That is the main thing that every person should have.

The responsibility is of the individual.

When the person understands that, assimilates it and practices it, the subjective loses strength in front of the main objective, in this case to do the right thing no matter if you are seen or not.

How do you work to instil that ethos of responsibility with your daughters? I'm not a parent so as out of curiosity.
