Personal Responsibility
While some who do not have personal responsibility end up succeeding in life, success is less likely compared to people who have personal responsibility, as personal responsibility holds people accountable for their own well-being in all aspects of their lives. Success can include long-term academic, personal achievement, a positive attitude and behavior.
Personal responsibility is being held accountable for all life decisions a people make for their own well-being and the outcome of all successes and failures (Merriam-Webster, 2013). People who have personal responsibility have a better chance of succeeding in their schooling, career, and personal life. People will stay on task and be able to accomplish whatever life throws at them regardless of the outcome. When people have personal responsibility, they will have a better chance of a being a leader rather than a follower. Leaders not only lead themselves but they lead others as well. Individuals have to believe in themselves in order to take full control of their own personal responsibility. They have to know how to react and handle certain situations and realize that they are the only ones responsible for their own outcome.
The relationship between personal responsibility and college success is a practice that needs to be put in place so results can be seen. Actions speak louder than words. When a people practice personal responsibility, it helps them become self-sufficient and self-reliant in their college success.

Time management is a good practice for personal responsibility as well as attitude and behavior. Balance is important when it comes to personal
