One's only responsibility is to live their own life as well as they can and to keep your nose out of your neighbor's life and business.
WHY do you claim that this is one's ONLY responsibility?
Because responsibility only pertains to choice.
But to be of real value and benefit to "others", as you talk about, then one would have to take note of their neighbors' lives and business, correct?
How could one be of real value and benefit to "another" if one kept out of their neighbor's life and business completely?

One is only responsible for what they can an do choose to do.
But people can accept and take responsibility for their past choices, correct?
If yes, then they can be responsible for their past choices, AS WELL.

Every individual has their own mind
This would depend on what the 'Mind' actually IS.

and must make their own choices and is responsible only for the choices they make.
At what age do you propose this happens at?

If you really want to be of value to others you must learn how and then make the effort to actually produce a product or perform a service that will actually benefit people.
Okay.
Is this what you do?
If yes, then what did you learn, and what do you do?
You just can't help it, can you.
What does the 'it' here refer to, EXACTLY?

You cannot talk about anything without turning into some kind of personal thing.
I have ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA WHY you persist going down this line of thinking EVERY TIME I just ask you to CLARIFY what you say in regards to what you have learned and do do.
It is like you are 'trying' things to deflect away from just answering the clarifying question/s.
You are TELLING US that if we want to be of value to "others", then we MUST learn how, and then make the effort to actually produce a product or perform a service that will actually benefit people.
But if you can NOT or will NOT clarify and/or explain what 'it' is exactly, which you say we MUST learn, then we OBVIOUSLY will NOT be able to do what you say we MUST then make.
OBVIOUSLY, what you say we MUST learn, and then do, would the EXACT SAME thing for EVERY one. So, either you have learned 'this' (whatever that is) and are doing it "your" 'self', or you have NOT. Now, if you have, then WHY NOT share 'it' with us?
But if you have NOT YET learned 'it', and/or are NOT YET doing 'this', then HOW do you KNOW that we MUST learn 'this' AND do 'this'?

Quite frankly what I have done and produced are none of your business and totally irrelevant to the issue.
LOL So, you allege and claim WE MUST do the things you do, BUT then TELL US what you do IS IRRELEVANT.
Are you joking here?

I have lived my entire life by that principle and do not have to explain any of that to you.
You are CORRECT; You do NOT have to explain 'that', NOR explain absolutely ANY thing else to us. But, it appears to be extremely contradictory and/or hypocritical to TELL US what we MUST learn and do, but then CLAIM that you do NOT have to explain ANY of what we MUST learn and do to us.
Some would be concluding that you actually do NOT know what you are going on about here.
If you have SUPPOSEDLY lived your ENTIRE life by 'that' principle, which by the way is a complete IMPOSSIBILITY, and then TELL US that we MUST learn and do this as well, then INFORM US that you will NOT and do NOT have to explain ANY of 'that' principle to us some are CLEARLY SEEING is you NOT following and doing your OWN 'principle' at all. In fact, you are SHOWING and REVEALING that you have NOT learned 'that' principle at all.

SO, HOW does one make themselves free?
Or, are you going to HOLD BACK this information?
I'm sorry. I get paid for that kind of information and I do not think you really want to know. If you are willing to pay for a course in setting yourself free, I'll consider it.
LOL So, then you are CONSTRAINT by YOUR 'love-of-money', correct?
What has actually come-to-light here now, well from my perspective anyway, is you have come to a philosophy forum to TELL "others" that they MUST live a certain way, but then when just asked for clarity about what this way is and how we can learn 'it', then you INFORM US that we have to PAY for a course on 'it'.
I wonder if this is ALLOWED in such a forum as this one is.
By the way being Truly FREE is NEVER being a captive to a love for more money.
If people pay you money, for what is essentially FREE information, for a course in setting themselves free, then you AND them are BEING HELD 'more' captive than you ALREADY WERE.
By the way NEVER be sorry for what you choose to do. If you really are, then you are OBVIOUSLY NOT living a life well lived and NOT being of ANY real value NOR benefit to "others".
If you feel the need to apologize, then there is a Knowing that you are doing some thing WRONG, and thus abusive to others.
