RE: How to Overcome Feeling Like a Victim

in #psychology7 years ago

In the beginning it feels like taking responsibility will be painful and shaming. One of the biggest things I learned at the Garden is that taking responsibility is not only very liberating but empowering.

I felt stuck, like other people were to blame, like I was being manipulated and without realizing it I had made myself into a powerless victim.

The more I take responsibility the stronger and free I am.

I can guess what inspired this post. Many blessings mi hermanita.

It is often hard to face ourselves and acknowledge that we are responsible. As you say, it is worth the effort to delve in. Soon it feels much better to step out of the victim role and take responsibility. It is the path to freedom!

Why do our egos trick us into believing otherwise? Life is interesting.

I believe we have been trained in the ways of blame. And humanity has been asleep for so long, there is nothing to do but be victims and point the finger. It takes some awakening and conscious attention to recognize the contrary. And even more still to accept that is the case and DO something about it. Life is indeed interesting @loveon.

I totally agree! But it's still partially your fault I'm such a great cook and have evolved to be the much, much happier person than I was ...say...three years ago. Can I blame you for that? But, then, I am in alignment with it. <3

Hahahaha--of course, blame me if you must!! Whatever it takes to have energized the transformation--we'll go with that! It's great to be in alignment with such--and glad you did what you did with it! Pay it forward @loveon! I know you will.
