Day 43 - Accountability

Accountability allows us to take responsibility for how we may have contributed to a conflict. Personal accountability allows us to make choices that can lead to peaceful resolutions.

Reflection
  • Accountability allows us to become responsible for our words and actions toward others.
  • Accountability is self directed.
Action
  • How is accountability different from punishment?
  • How can someone be accountable without accepting blame?
  • Write down your thoughts about these two questions.
“At any moment, you have a choice, that either leads you closer to your spirit or further away from it.”
Thich Nhat Hanh
“Accountability means to say what you do, do what you say.”
Pearl Zhu
“Accountability breeds response-ability.”
