Our responsibility for decision making

Doctors, lawyers, accountants, builders, mechanics, etc. provide a service.

They provide advice and conduct activities or procedures to help us achieve a goal.

They supply choices, but they don't make the final decision on what is to be done- the client who hires them does that.

We are the ultimate decision maker in our life, not those we hire to help us, although we can leave decision making in their hands, in certain cases, if we choose to.

But even then it is our responsibility, for we are the ones who have ceded our decision making to another. No one has forced us to do this, and we bare the consequences for our action. We can't blame another.
