It's Not About You

• March 2021
Max Lee who is an Undergraduate Student at Carleton University, discusses the tension between personal fulfillment and social responsibility in the context of COVID-19 and societal norms. Our actions will always affect those close to and afar from us, so we must train ourselves to live responsibly. There are three important questions we can ask ourselves as we navigate daily life:
Why am I doing this action?
Who am I affecting with my action?
Is the cost of my action worth it? Or is there a more responsible way to achieve what I want?
