"Life is not accountable to us. We are accountable to life"
- Denis Waitley
About this Quote
This quote by Denis Waitley is a tip that life is unpredictable and unmanageable. We can not manage the events that happen to us, but we can control how we respond to them. Life is not obligated to provide us what we want or expect, however we are obligated to take advantage of the life we have actually been given. We must take responsibility for our actions and choices, and accept the consequences that feature them. We should also be willing to gain from our errors and make every effort to make much better options in the future. Life is a journey, and we need to take ownership of it and take advantage of it. We need to be liable to life and make the most of the chances it provides us.
"Life is life - whether in a cat, or dog or man. There is no difference there between a cat or a man. The idea of difference is a human conception for man's own advantage"
