Refuse To Be a Victim

 

Nothing and no one can make us a victim. We do it to ourselves when we allow external circumstances to hold power over us.

Although we have no control over what happens to us, we ALWAYS have a choice in how we respond. We hold our power when we accept complete responsibility for our thoughts, feelings and actions.

"A man may fall many times but he won't be a failure until he says someone pushed him." -- Elmer G. Letterman

"The most potent weapon in the hands of the oppressor is the mind of the oppressed." -- Steven Biko

 

 

 

What a great piece from my Coaching Mentor Dr. Randin Brons in his Idea Engineer. I am blessed to have been mentored by this man!

On a very frequent basis I talk with people blessed with "if only" syndrome. I have seen too many literally die from terminal uniqueness. A hard cold fact.

As the Kubler-Ross quote makes very clear, to not be a "victim" is not the easy choice, but is a choice we have and can learn to make on a regular basis.

I can relate to being a "victim", because for many years I felt "circumstances" caused negative things to happen. Through hard work directed by good "coaches" I was able to escape the victim mentality. The difference was in my mind, soul and attitude.

Need a little help; go get yourself some great "coaching"! It will work if YOU work it! (www.coached-to-success.com).
