I
am responsible for...
from "Codependent No More" by Melody Beattie
I
am responsible for myself.
I
am responsible for leading or not living my life.
I
am responsible for tending to my spiritual, emotional, physical, and financial
well-being.
I
am responsible for identifying and meeting my needs.
I
am responsible for solving my problems or learning to live with those
I cannot solve.
I
am responsible for my choices.
I
am responsible for what I give and receive.
I am responsible for setting and achieving my goals.
I
am responsible for how much I enjoy life.
I
am responsible for how much pleasure I find in daily activities.
I
am responsible for whom I love and how I choose to express this love.
I am responsible for what I do to others and for what I allow others to
do to me.
I
am responsible for my wants and desires.
All
of me, every aspect of my being, is important.
I count for something. I matter.
My feelings can be trusted.
My thinking is appropriate.
I value my wants and needs.
I do not deserve and will not tolerate abuse or constant mistreatment.
I have rights, and it is my responsibility to assert these rights.
The decisions I make and the way
I conduct myself will reflect my high self-esteem.
My decisions will take into account my responsibilities to myself.
