When we are born, we never imagine growing up and becoming our own caretaker. From age zero, we depend on our guardians to motivate, push, and guide us in everything we do. Unfortunately, most of us never prepare for the day that our caretakers won't be there anymore. Taking responsibility is about self parenting, self leadership, and self authoring. Ask yourself these following questions to know if you are responsible.

- If no one told you what to do, would you know what to do?

- When is the last time you learned a skill on your own?

- When is the last time you asked someone for advice?

- Are you consistently searching for solutions on your own?

If your answer to any of these questions is NO, then you need to examine your life.

You are the manager, secretary, and auditor of your days. Take a deep look into your life and take ownership of your life. Spend every hour with intentions doing something productive. They say, luck is when opportunity meets preparedness. It's your job to be prepared in order to be blessed.
