As a foundation for considering the essential elements of accepting responsibility, let’s break out what BP Chairman Carl-Henric Svanberg said: 正如接受责任的要素的基础，让我们打破BP董事长Carl-Henric Svanberg所说的话：

He said“We are taking a hard look at ourselves, what we do and how we do it.” 我们正在努力的寻找自己，什么能做以及怎么去做

I believe the first step in accepting responsibility is to reflect on your action or decision. 承担责任的第一步是你在行为和决定上的反映。

Before you can make anything right or apologize for a mistake, you have to have a clear understanding of where you went wrong. 在你能把事情做对或者为错误道歉之前，你必须清楚地知道你哪儿错了。

He said“What we learn will have implications for our ways of working, our strategy, and our governance.” 我们学到的东西会影响我们工作、战略以及统治的方式。

Once you have a clear idea of what went wrong, you must ask yourself what you learned as a result. 一旦你清楚的知道你做错了什么，你会问自己你从中学到了什么。

If you experience a success, what led to it and how can you capitalize on this knowledge in the future? 如果你经历的是成功，它会带来什么以及在以后把现在的成功转化为资本?

If you made a mistake, what kinds of actions or thinking got you into hot water? Are your priorities in the right order? Is your focus in the right place? 如果你犯了错，什么样的行为或想法会让你陷入困境?你能分清轻重缓急吗?你能集中精力在对的地方吗?

He said“BP will change as a result of this accident.” BP因此事故将发生改变

Self-examination and learning by themselves are not enough. 自省和自我学习是远远不够的。

If we are serious about becoming someone who accepts responsibility for our actions and desire the benefits that come with it, 如果我们真想成为敢于为自己行为负责任的人并希望从中受益的人，我们接下来必须要改变。

we must also commit to and follow through with change. Continue what’s working and change what isn’t. 接着做有效地，改变那些没有作用的。

I want to strongly encourage you to commit from this point forward to accept 100% responsibility for your actions and decisions. 我强烈的鼓励你们从100%的接受你们的行为和决定这个方向做起。

If you’re wondering where to start, here are some areas I believe are essential: 如果你不知道从哪开始，这里有一些很基本的方面供参考

First,accept responsibility for where you find yourself today. 接受这些责任：第一，你今天的位置、

Second,accept responsibility for the state of your marriage. 第二、你的婚姻状况、

Third,accept responsibility for your children. 第三、你的孩子、

And fourth,accept responsibility for the state of your other relationships. 第四、你的人际关系。

Obviously I can continue down this list with many other areas that we need to accept responsibilities for, but the point is that we are responsible for our lives. 很显然，生活中我们还有许多方面需要我们承担责任，总之，我们要为我们的生活承担责任。

We are responsible for our actions and we must take full responsibility of the outcome of our decisions. 我们要为我们的行为承担责任、为我们做出的决定的结果承担责任。

And remember if you aspire to be a leader in your personal and professional life, 如果你想在私人生活或者职业生活中都成为个领导，

begin by accepting full responsibility for everything you undertake and never pass the buck when things go wrong. 那就从对你从事的所有事情承担全部的责任，当事情出错时不推卸责任做起。
