Personal Statement On Personal Responsibility

1. If I take personal responsibility for my education, I will accept my grades and success is reflective of the effort I put into each course regardless of my many other responsibilities.

Coming to college as an adult, we have many expectations and preconceptions of what college will or will not be. The expectations we have can influence our college life for the better or the worse. My experience since starting college has been an interesting one. People have misconceptions about college because they do not know what to expect. After doing some research, I have concluded that there are three major factors that are often misunderstood about college life. The first is the financial aspect of college. Second, is the relationship between the professors and students. Third is time management. These three factors play an important role in why people are afraid to go down the path to college.

Accountability is also a personal issue. Personal accountability is the act of taking responsibility for your actions in the workplace or other situations. Rather than directing blame on others the individual should seek to understand their own contribution towards the situation and how they could make the situation better. As most people do not interpret situations the same way you must learn to recognize the different communication styles and behaviors of others. Although we are not accountable for what happens beyond our control we can control how we respond to it. Our behavior and attitude defines who we are and our character. We have to learn from our mistakes and take responsibility for what happens and how we choose to handle the situation. We can sit back and let things happen as

In conclusion, the college experience has made me a changed person. It has made me a changed person for the better. I have learned a lot, I have learned responsibility. Without responsibility in college you will not make very far. You must get your work done, and be punctual. You must make the right decisions, don’t let peer pressure get to you, try to avoid it. Don’t let college change you for the worst, take advantage of

Success in college requires one to identify key aspects of personal responsibility, understand the relationship between personal responsibility and college success, and establish a specific plan to follow that will ensure he or she incorporates the various elements of personal responsibility in every facet of his or her college experience.

Responsibility to me is the passion that one must do what they know they need to do to succeed, because if they don’t they will never be able to do what they need to to take care of themselves. Responsibility is acting by yourself even if there is not direct incentive to do so because it is what one must do to succeed. When I finally became mature enough to understand the responsibility’s I had for myself and others that were apart of my team, I immediately changed my ways and my grades in senior year were over one whole grade point average compared to the two prior years. To be responsible in life is to be successful and if one can not be responsible in life then they will never reach their full

Although I help out my classmates as much as I can, I constantly emphasize the importance of goal setting for younger kids such as my younger family members. Helping someone choose wiser decisions and giving them knowledge about their future is very important to me. I distinguish a very good, admirable attitude while introducing my personality. This proves to others that I am friendly and well-mannered because who wants to be around someone with a non-caring, rude attitude. Inside and out of the classroom, I am held accountable for all of my work and studying. I must say that college is not like high school, which is another reason I inform high school students that our parents weren't lying when they said it. It requires more time, your own studying, and other responsibility that you have to be able to

Finishing high school and going to college can be quite overwhelming, yet incredible at the same time. However, taking classes at LaGuardia Community College meant that I was no longer in high school, and I need it to do things on my own to strive for success. In my first year seminar class, I had to adapt to a new environment where the majority of the work was submitted online at a specific time, and I also had to get used to using the websites needed for the class. Furthermore, I witness how students are when finals are just around the corner, many students in my class were rushing to get things done before the deadline. Overall, becoming a college student meant growing up and being independent where I no longer needed to ask for others to help me succeed.

Being willing to answer … for the outcomes resulting from your choices, behaviors, and actions." When you’re personally accountable, you take ownership of situations that you’re involved in. You see them through, and you take responsibility for what happens – good or bad. You don’t blame others if things go wrong. Instead, you do your best to make things right.

In conclusion, Personal responsibility is composed of many tools that will allow an individual or team to succeed. Simply because it is, the force that keeps an individual on course with the end goal, using these tools will enable inherent success. The practice of setting goals can help one to keep focused on the task-a-hand, by knowing what goal a person is working at.

Accountability a word that is most often used and has several meanings, to give an example is responsibility, blameworthiness, liability and other terms. Accountability can be used in many places such as work, home and even on a battle field, it can also be used for little things for instance taking a piece of paper from one destination to another; you are responsible for that piece of paper its condition and whether or not it gets to its destination. Or big things such as taking personnel from one destination or another, because you are responsible for there safety and ensuring you have everyone that is traveling with you from start to finish means you are responsible for there welfare.

Being responsible refers to our ability to make decisions that serve our own interests and the interests of others. We first need to be responsible for ourselves before we can be responsible for others. In learning to be more responsible it is important that we know our limitations. It does not matter how smart we are, there is only so much responsibility that one person can handle at any given time. It is also important to remember that we are not responsible for thing that are out of our control, for example, how other people think and feel or how they react to ourselves or others. Sharing responsibility for both success and failure can lead to increased responsibility to oneself and to others. When you

Growing up in a religious background, my Catholic beliefs reflect and shape my own personal values. As a Catholic, I was taught to always respect your elders, treat others as how you would like to be treated, never put anyone’s name in vain, distinguish right from wrong, and work for the common good. By these codes of ethics, I have always believed in and live by. My parents played an important role in developing my values of Respect, Integrity, Humility, Trust, Accountability and Responsibility. Through their actions and hardships, they expressed their struggles they faced leaving their country and coming to the United States in order to provide their family with more opportunities and a better life. Both my parents were born in poverty and in a corrupt government. They both have strong religious background, where religion is their force and motivation to never give up and to keep moving forward through the struggles. From their story, it set an example for me on how to live life and that I should never take anything for granted in life. I am grateful from where I come from and who I am. My actions make me who I am and it is important for me to always do the right actions. This applies in both my personal and professional life. The major aspect I learned is that nothing in life is permanent and live life to the fullest. I will never take failure personal and will not let it dictate my life.

Being a college student requires a lot of responsibility, lots more than is required in high

In our lives, we have to make important choices, and sometimes our choices determine our happiness or sadness. As a Filipino, our families tell us to do well in school and to not make bad choices because they want us to be successful and to have ethical morals. Growing up as a Catholic, I was taught to be obedient and respectful to my family which has shaped who I am today. Yet, I too made some mistakes, and I learned from the consequences. From my failures, I learned to not belittle myself, but to grow.
