Take responsibility for my actions

American Buddhist monk Thanissaro Bhikkhu wrote:
“Is human action real or illusory? If real, is it effective? If it is effective, does one have a choice in what one does? If one has a choice, can one choose to act in a way that will lead to genuine happiness? If so, what is that way? These are questions that lie at the heart of the way we conduct our lives. The way we answer them will determine whether we look for happiness through our own abilities, seek happiness through outside help, or abandon the quest for a higher-than-ordinary happiness altogether.”

I may have genetic defects, but my responsibility lies in playing with the hand I’ve been dealt, vigorously applying my particular knowledge, knowing that there are things that I know that many other people don’t know.

If i’m not responsible for the consequences of what I do, i’m not in control of them. I cant control all of my actions, but I can try and control as many as possible!
