Being responsible implies having the capacity to fulfil specific commitments. Responsibility is not only inherent in the professional environment. Also, a gesture of responsibility to have the capacity to fulfil social commitments or in student areas. Responsibility is a learning that any human being acquires at the level of emotional intelligence over the years. Responsibility is not something unique to adults because anyone, also children, can take care of a specific activity in a manner commensurate with age. In this essay I try to explain the general concept of responsibility, importance of the virtue and examples in my life where I have not acted responsibly, and its effects have been negative. First, responsibility it is the ability that should have a person when you perform any activity in any area of life, with work, family or society. Responsibility is also the fact of being responsible for someone or something, is also used to refer to the obligation to respond to a fact. And it comes from the Latin responsum, of the verbal response, which in turn is formed with the prefix re-, which alludes to the idea of repetition, to return to the back, and the verb spondere, which means "to promise", to "force" or …show more content…
When I went to work the first time outside of Cuba, in the year 2000, my daughter was six months old, I unconsciously and without any responsibility, I thought only in the economic benefit that would bring this trip and I never thought the important thing would be that currently play the role of a good mother. The result of this fatal action was experienced by me when return to Cuba two years after. My daughter did not know me and did not want to take care of her. At the time it had a mix of all negative feeling, that only by the time I have been able to overcome it. She prefers to be cared for by the father that by
As a child, one is oftentimes told to put thought into one’s actions to avoid the predictable, unpleasant consequences of a hasty performance. During an individual’s youth, the value of accountability is tremendously emphasized by one’s parents and educators. Children are taught that they must be held responsible for their actions, and, as they age and grow into mature individuals, they take on accountability for others. Being responsible means having a duty or an obligation to diligently fulfill a certain task, and as an individual matures, his or her obligations begin to encompass not only the responsibility one has for oneself, but also social accountability. Nevertheless, when one is faced with demanding obstacles, one’s sense of obligation to others may become compromised.
Responsibility I make sure that anything that I need to do gets completed efficiently and with effort. This could be doing support rooms, helping players on the forums, or finding rule breakers in-game. I will try to resolve any issue that may come my way to the best of my ability.
Responsibility is very important for people living out in the real world. It has been taught to us since we were little, but some have either forgotten it, or flat out ignored it. Responsibility, what is it? Responsibility is taking care of yourself and making sure you do what you need to do to succeed at school, work, home, and life in general. Here is a quote from The Glass Castle that shows how irresponsibility is shown, “Mom lay wrapped up in blankets on the sofa bed, sobbing about how much she hated her life.”
Every individual is responsible for their own actions, choices, and behaviors. I cannot think for anyone else nor can anyone think for me. Essentially, I am the decision-maker for my own actions and behaviors. Being accountable for oneself requires someone to be honest and truthful with themselves and others. Sometimes this may seem difficult while other times easier.
Being responsible in America can be achieved in many ways. From serving in the military to voting you can be responsible.

Responsibility means being in charge of your choices and accepting the consequences of your actions. Responsibility means being accountable for yourself, and recognizing that our actions have consequences. Being accountable means to not blame others for your actions or take credit of other’s actions. Responsibility also means showing self-restraint. Self-restraint means restraining yourself from short term activities that could have negative consequences on yourself or your reputation.
Jieni Peng CA1 “What Makes Right Acts Right” by W.D Ross In the article “What Makes Right Acts Right” by W.D Ross, he debates the about idea of duties and how humans in general understand if their actions are correct. Ross mentions that humans do not deliberately execute their duties because of the consequences resulting from those duties. Rather, they perform those duties because of an innate form of common sense that humans possess inside of themselves. One example of this is the act of fulfilling a promise that an individual made to themselves or others not because of the end results but because of their sense of “duty.”
Aristotle has a firm belief that human being’s actions need to be aimed at and end with some sort of good. With this is mind, he further explains that happiness is the end result of our actions. Thomas Hill, although similar in view, advocates for the importance to not only preserve our environment but connects how the preservation of nature directly relates to human virtue. In this essay, I will argue that Thomas Hill’s beliefs on human virtue along side with the preservation of our environment goes hand in hand with Aristotle’s views of the development of human virtue. Both Aristotle and Thomas Hill believe that human virtue not only has the power to control our actions positively or negatively but can also influence whether human beings
To begin with, coming of age means responsibility for yourself and others. Responsibility relates to coming of age because you need to be responsible for your own actions as well as being
Lucy Bichakhchyan Introduction to Philosophy Second Short Written Assignment GALEN STRAWSON THE IMPOSSIBILITY OF MORAL RESPONSIBILITY Galen Strawson is a British philosopher, who is famous for his philosophical works on free will, panpsychism, causality, determinism etc. This paper is about his article “The Impossibility of Moral Responsibility”. The title of the article already gives away the stand that Strawson has considering Moral Responsibility..
Based on an evaluation of Aristotle’s arguments and the objection that stands against it, people are responsible for voluntary actions and involuntary actions whose circumstances or particulars they themselves have caused. In order to evaluate Aristotle’s ethical argument, it is first necessary to explain his definitions of character acquisition, volition, and responsibility. Aristotle defines character acquisition very succinctly:
The last theory is Aristotle’s virtue ethics which states that we should move from the concern towards good action and to focus on the concern with good character. This paper argues that Aristotle’s virtue ethics is better than the other ethical theories. The divine command theory says that what is morally right and what is morally wrong is determined by God and God alone. People who follow the divine command theory believe that God is the creator of all things, therefore, he must also be the creator of morally right and wrong acts.
Aristotle’s virtue ethics differs from other moral theories. Unlike deontology and consequentialism, virtue ethics emphasizes and describes moral characters (virtues). In my paper, I am going to explore the objection to virtue ethics from a relativist point of view and the responses to this objection that were presented in Nussbaum’s paper “A non-relative approach to virtue ethics.” Furthermore, I am going to present two out of three relativist objections to her responses that she anticipated, and her responses to them.
Throughout history many great philosophers have attempted to unravel the origins of virtues by developing moral theories of their own. This document is designed to provide the reader with an overview of some of the more popular theories concerning morals. Three of the most popular moral theories are… Utilitarianism, Kantianism, and Aristotelianism. Though Utilitarianism, Kantianism, and Aristotelianism differ in many ways, they also share similar fundamentals. Utilitarianism is a highly acclaimed theory that is morally based on consequentialism.
In this trait involves the ability to act responsibly, which is often said to be maturity in itself. However, being responsible simply means putting needs before desires in order to undoubtedly secure their success. This ability is crucial to the decision-making process, and others in the process as well. While everyone wishes to have something or do something putting needs ahead on that list takes a lot of effort. Putting needs aside and focusing on wants such as a new car, or the shoes on tv show a lack of priority.
