Ethical Statement

I'm looking at my ELI and I am actually a little appalled by it. To see myself so black and white is a bit scary. My Lens is Rights - Responsibility and Results Lens. While reading thru the list of basically Me I can't help but disagree with some while completely agreeing with others.

I completely agree with my self-knowledge and free will, reason and experience, and Autonomy and Rationality/Sensibility. these three sum me up very well. I am very self reliant and accountable, I hold myself up to high standards as I do others. I think we all need to take responsibilities for our actions. I do think thru problems very thoroughly and when needed do tons of research to give me options to allow me to do what I need. These are me. I don't let my past get in the way of new opertunities in the work place.

However I do not agree with my blind spot. It states that " Sometimes you fail to be accountable to those who are depending on you when you exercise your free will. So long as you’ve satisfied your own needs, you can become complacent, leaving problems unresolved in the long-term and everyone else to fend for themselves.  You may also unintentionally cause people upset and pain because you are so focused on your good motive, that you don’t see the problems with your method." ©Copyright 2012 EthicsGame.com, LLC  http://www.ethicsgame.com/Exec/Doorway/List.aspx I don't think I have ever done that. And it's pretty frustrating to see it as one of my "flaws" so to speak. I also don't agree with my crisis, saying I become exhausted if I don't have some time to reflect. I need to be open to knowing that I can't complete everything I set out to do, no one can and that should be ok. It just doesn't sound like me as I know me.

All in all I am ok with my ELI reflection. It mostly sums me up very well....
