Principlev1
Distinguish between responsibility (ownership of response)
Distinguish between responsibility (ownership of response) and blame (attribution of fault), because confusing them converts agency into guilt and produces paralysis rather than action.
Why This Is a Principle
Derives from freedom to choose attitude (Humans retain the capacity to choose their attitude toward), behavior vs. identity evaluation (Behavior-focused negative self-evaluation is psychologically), and attribution of failure (People interpret failure as either evidence about their). This is a critical principle distinguishing two easily confused concepts with opposite functional outcomes. Highly actionable and broadly applicable.
