Good Afternoon,
I am wrong when I am not responsible, or I do not hold myself accountable-and then I lie about it.
I believe my honesty truly starts with myself and nobody else. Most people do not know or care about what I do, but internally I know and eventually it will surface. I think that is true of the majority of mankind. We have an internal true direction. An internal right and True North to do the correct action.
When we do not follow it as an individual, there is turmoil. As a group we become chaotic. No society can exist long in that state.
I used to have this long set of rules. I tried to live by other's dictates. I began to seriously resent it as I got older and became very self-righteous and figured I had the money and the means I would do as I pleased. That only worked for so long. I paid a consequence and was expected to be compliant. It still took me a while to accept my "wrongness" and until I did I was not changing.
Today I check my intent and my awareness in situations. I am a selfish person. I want what is best for me, but I also am a team player and I want what is best for others. For me that is owning my own shit. I may not like it, but when I own that I am wrong I learn the most and that is not by me doing whatever I please whenever.
So if I am wrong, it may take a minute, but I will accept it and own it and do what I can to make the situation right. It is learning for me.
