Victim Thinking

Larry Janesky: Think Daily

There seems to be a lot of this going around today – “I am a victim”.

Are there real “victims” in the world – yes.  But what many point to in order to prove it is just an excuse or failure to take responsibility.

Declaring you’re a victim of some overarching conspiracy and believing it can be self debilitating – especially when you can’t change what you are pointing to as your oppressor/aggresor.  If you believe it, you begin to live like a victim and take your own power away.

Are there people who don’t share your views and goals?  Of course, just as you don’t understand so many others.

Is life hard at times?  Of course.  But “hard” is relative.  Life, on the whole, is very easy by historical standards.

I refuse to be a victim.  I’m going to take advantage of this opportunity.

How about you?

I could not agree with you more! So many today are blaming Covid for their inability to succeed when they haven’t put much effort into that success. Love your blogs!

Amen to this point!

Agreed! No victimhood here.
