Responsibility assumption is the doctrine where an individual takes total responsibility for events and circumstances in their lives.

The doctrine has spiritual roots in the monism of Eastern and New Age religions, which holds that there is only one true being; all people are one with each other and with God and hence have Godlike power within them. Occasionally an intellectual justification is offered as well: that by individual choices, each person shapes the world and the relationships around them.

Elements of responsibility assumption are present in many motivational programs and

large group awareness training
programs.
