influence versus control

  • Hannah Aline Taylor avatar

    Personal responsibility is the way to claim all of the influence available. 

    It does not create influence. 

    As I enact personal responsibility, I must remember that there are many situations in the world wherein my influence is 0%. I am able to respond, and that's it. I am not able to control, change, fix, solve, heal, or even participate in any of the foregoing. 

    This is what prevents victim-blaming as I claim my empowerment. Responsibility is distinct from influence, and I do not torture myself with ideas that my thinking "manifested" disease, death, toxic cycles, predators, or any other of the random anything possible in life. 

    Sometimes, my 100% responsibility is happening while I have 0% influence.
