"I can't help it" . . . that's what we all say when we don't want to exert ourselves.
—Eva Lathbury
Irresponsible behavior is not unfamiliar to us. Passivity is equally familiar. In the past, excusing ourselves of all responsibility prevented us from being blamed. We have learned that it also prevented us from feeling worthy, from fulfilling our potential, from feeling the excitement that comes with achievement.
Our fear of failure helped us to be irresponsible. We may still fear failure, but we forge ahead anyway. We will be shown the way to proceed. Our fellow travelers have messages for us that will smooth our path.
I have already said, "I can help it."
I will celebrate that I am taking responsibility for my life today.
