How to stop being the victim

"No one can make me feel inferior without my permission" -Eleanor Roosevelt 

Some create their problems from their minds. They place blame on others. As soon as they wake up in the morning, they begin thinking about who is stressing them out or what is going to cause them problems the rest of the day, although in reality that problem is created within. This is being the victim.  

A victim will place blame on certain people who have made them feel inferior. They talk in this kind of language all day. What they don't realize is that they are causing the stress to themselves. Because as Mrs. Roosevelt said, no one can decide who makes you inferior except for yourself. By shifting ones mind, it creates power. The creative power to control the outcome of your day. 

A victim can also worry about all the things they have to get done for the day. The day hasn't even begun and they stress themselves out before accomplishing one single task. Being stressed makes one less effective and multi-tasking allows for less focus to any single task. Instead of being the victim, you must take ownership. By ownership, you can simply write down your tasks and tackle them one by one, without stressing yourself out or blaming anyone else. Because ultimately it is up to yourself only to finish any given task. 

Instead of having a victim mindset, adopt and embrace the ownership mindset. One must take ownership of themselves and their life! When someone's says "Have a great day!", think of that as motivation and inspiration for the day. Because a victim will immediately think of the stressors in their life, and immediately attached are the names and faces of those stressors. An owner will detach those faces and those stressors from their mindset. An owner takes control. Because ultimately we are in the drivers seat and in control of how the movie will play out. Not anyone else.
