Accepting Accountability & letting go of Victim Mentality
March 4, 2023/
We all have a habit of falling into the “poor me” mindset. Catch yourself when you feel you’re slumping into the victim mindset and think of how you can take accountability for the situation. 😌💓
I think everyone needs to take time to do this. In certain aspects of our lives we all play the victim role. This is a wall and defense mechanism that allows us to blame others and we don’t have to take accountability for those things that we don’t want to face that are not working in our own lives. As long as we can blame others we don’t have to make changes and we can put that responsibility on others and we think it is making our lives easier but in reality we are the ones suffering and making the choice to push others away and not have the intimate and deep relationship with others. We are hurting ourselves and those we love.
