  The ability to take responsibility for one's actions is to be conscious of the growth of the self Problem: It is so easy to blame others and situations, for whatever is happening in our lives. We constantly look for excuses and so we are not able to do anything for our own growth. So there is not a constant experience of growth. Life becomes a constant struggle as I begin to feel bound by the situations. Solution: When I am conscious of my own growth I am able to be aware of my own thoughts, feelings and emotions and to understand how they influence my behaviour. Then I am able to take responsibility for my own choices and actions. Thus I begin to experience freedom not feeling bound by any situation.
