ITL208: How to Break Free from the “Victim” Mindset and Go Accomplish Amazing Things

On this week’s episode, I answer a listener question on how I’ve chosen not to focus on being a victim and how you, too, can keep away from this mentality.

 

There are challenging things happening in all our lives that give us the opportunity to “check out.”

• However, you can choose what mentality you focus on.
• There isn’t really a how. You either choose your mentality or you do not.

 

Society continues to believe that choice is the foundation of everything we do.

• That is like flipping a coin if you don’t know the foundation of what a good choice is or why choices yield certain results.
• Your thinking is the foundation. Every choice you’ll ever make is based on it.
• Because you have free will, you can choose how you think by deciding who you spend time with, what you read or watch, and what you spend time thinking about.
• Choosing your thinking requires you to act against your instincts.

 

I have never seen an incredible leader who was not incredible at leading themselves.

• You have been created with a will that is stronger than your emotions.
• You have been created with the ability to act a certain way despite how you feel.
