Listen, I’m right there with you. It’s easy to get stuck in our heads and talk down to ourselves, especially when it’s as if no matter how much we try, something seems to knock us down. I’ve been there far too many times, but what get’s me out of this rut is understanding that everything that happens to me is a lesson.

It’s a lesson to take whatever has come my way and learn from it. Did a friend do you wrong? Great! Now you know what red flags to look out for with bad friends. Did you get praise at work? Great! Now you know what to keep doing. Everything in life provides you with a lesson and shows you if you’re on the right path or not. You cannot let yourself get down in the dumps constantly and feel like a victim, now is your time to be a victor.

You have far more control than you know. Our mainstream media works effectively to brainwash us into a victim mindset. To be frank, a mindset that’s for the weak. A mindset that will prevent you from your true success. Fight against this and remind yourself of the victor you are and how you can and will achieve anything you put your mind to.
