The differences between being responsible and irresponsible.

Trust you to give me a significant mind workout first up on a weekend morning alok! lol. Hmmmm. I think that it DOES basically come down to their actions more than anything else. A responsible person will weigh up all factors and act in a manner that is clear, concise and beneficial to all concerned. Their goal will be to reach a satisfactory conclusion to all that they undertake and they will be consistently mindful of all pros and cons and respond accordingly. An irresponsible person will be self serving, irrational on many levels; and pretty much oblivious to others around them and the potential consequences of their actions. We can sit back safe in the knowledge that any action by a responsible person will be carried out without us having to sweat on things at all; yet having a person we know is irresponsible carry out anything causes us to have to watch them like a hawk at times and stress heavily until the task is completed. More times than not, we are also required to go back in and pick up the pieces or tie up loose ends too because an irresponsible person just won't be concerned about the finer details of anything. An irresponsible person always provides us with a harsh realization that if we want something done right then we are better off doing it ourselves!

People with a goal and conviction are always responsible.People who are lazy,selfish and procrastinate things are always irresponsible.

I feel that there are two kinds of people on earth. One who never fails to remember the birthdays for his love but sneaks from his duties and responsibilities of the relationship. He invariably escapes from his responsibilities and fails to stand by his failures and wrongdoings. Then there is another group who might not remember the anniversary dates but discharges his duty and is loyal and responsible to his family and profession. He stands tall in accepting his failures just as he takes charge of his accomplishments. I would say the latter is a responsible kind. And the former is not so responsible for they are largely driven by things which affect them directly. Most are too much occupied with themselves, they hardly cater to people who care for them. Being responsible is not all about remembering dates but also about a generalised disposition of duties towards family and society. When I say that I am a responsible person, I mean that I know how to lead my life keeping my family happy and proud, keeping work place ethics and profile in tact and abiding by the society norms . Thanks

I the difference between both are being responsible to our actions and decisions made even if it is wrong or right. I know some who are responsible and others who are not. Most responsible people take responsibility for their actions and decisions, they dont blame other people if their decisions are wrong. They stand up for their word and they also stand up for its consequences. Irresponsible people are likely to blame other people for their wrong decision and actions.
