Question Description
Language of Responsibility
In this activity, you will practice the language of personal responsibility. By learning to translate Victim statements into Creator statements, you will master the language of successful people.
1- Draw a line down the middle of a journal page. On the left side of the line, write 10 Victim statements. Examples: if they do something about the parking on campus, I would not be late so often. I am shy to ask questions even when I am confused.
2- On the right side of the line, translate the Victim statements into the words of a Creator. For example, I will leave home 30 minutes earlier tomorrow to allow enough time for driving and parking and be on time for my class. When you respond as if you are responsible for a bad situation, then you are empowered to do something about it (unlike victims who must wait for someone else to solve their problems).
3- Write what you have learned about how you use language: Is it your habit to speak as a victim or a creator? Do you find yourself more inclined to blame yourself, blame others, or seek solutions? Give examples.
10 victim statements
10 revised creator statements
