Accountability is one great virtue I believe that everyone should have because it will go along way to help us in our relationship with other. This is also maturity if you ask me, because is only a matured man or woman at heart that will accept his or her responsibility and do the needful. Most times we see people shifting blames, making it look like others are responsible for their failure or inability to do something. But in real sense they are responsible and will not accept it because they want to be the hero.
A TRUE LIFE STORY
let me share with the house something I experienced with someone who is a very big victim of our topic. When I first met this person he made me believe that everyone around him was wrong and he was the right. I foolishly support him and spoke against the others thinking that they made him fail instead of helping him succeed in life. Whenever we stay together he keeps pointing to me what others did that made him fail, how he is very good at what he does and what have you. He also told me that when ever he keeps money it will disappear and he doesn't know who is responsible. This is a full grown man who should be responsible for his own life still pointing fingers at others for his failure.
I took pity on him and encourage my husband to bring him home so that we can see how to help him. Little did I know that he was responsible for all the failures in his life and business. He is the type you can't advice. He have everything figured out and yet he will still fail. But he will make it look like you are responsible. He came to stay with us and it didn't take me one month to discover who he really is. He spends money when he should not. Closes his shop at any given time he wishes. He is very good at disappointing his customers and Chase them away. Most of his customers ran away from his shop and he lost everything. The shop in question was gotten for him by my husband and he started doing laundry: washing clothes and drying them for people. The day he left the shop my husband and I was not aware. He sold out all the properties in the shop to someone else and relocated with nothing to his name. He did not stay up to five months before coming back to start life all over again. Since then my husband decided to let him be so that he won't blame us for the next failure because he have included our names in the people that refused to help him and allowed him fall.
In conclusion, taken responsible helps us to do the right thing and not see people are responsible for our failure.
