Kindle Notes & Highlights
When pain, misery, or anger happen, it is time to look within you, not around you.
The quality of our lives is determined by our ability to respond to the varied complex situations that we encounter. If the ability to respond with intelligence, competence, and sensitivity is compromised by a compulsive or reactive approach, we are enslaved by the situation. It means we have allowed the nature of our life experience to be determined by our circumstances, not by us.
Responsibility simply means your ability to respond.
Reactivity is enslavement. Responsibility is freedom.
