“The moment you take personal responsibility for everything in your life is the moment you can change anything in your life.”
The victim mindset
It happens when we focus on how you believe other people are doing you wrong or what you think they are doing to cause you pain. It means focusing on other people's flaws and how you feel mistreated.
This fuels feelings of helplessness, hopelessness, and despair.
Looking in the right direction
How someone else treats you is outside your control.
But noticing who or what you are exposing yourself to is within your control. And so you should focus on that.
Self-assessment
Be honest with yourself. If you are part of the problem, then you are also part of the solution.
Stop blaming others. If you feel helpless over a situation, it’s usually because you can’t see your part in it. Be aware of how you are standing in your own way.
