How To Stop Victimising Yourself
A memorable moment that opened another doorway for me to look within myself. An unexpected 'confrontation' led me to reflect deeply on my own actions and thought process. I discovered:
1. We are the only ones who are responsible for our own life. We control how we want to feel and think. The more we acknowledge this, the less suffering we will have.
2. Nothing is personal. Everything outside us - anything and anyone does is a reflection of their own inner state. They are merely projecting it out, it has nothing to do us.
3. Sometimes 'OK' is sufficient. Period.
4. Paraphrase and ask WHY to allow us to learn and understand.
5. Don't accept any 'present' you don't want. It is a CHOICE, our choice. Choose wisely.
6. Empathize but take no B.S. from anyone. Drama is not necessary.
7. Understand the difference between fact vs opinion. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion but it is not a fact unless we accept it as our truth.
8. You are not that important. Get over yourself.
9. Forgive but never forget. Be wise - the next time is a choice.
10. Be firm NEVER be rude. Our actions are a reflection of us and says nothing about the other person.
Truly there are more important and meaningful things that matter and need our attention. Placing too much emphasis on self gratification is merely breeding our ego.
The most powerful lesson I have also learned is this. If the 5 year old me can survive the storm, nothing can hurt me anymore. Absolutely nothing. I am stronger, wiser, bolder now and my self-worth is dependent on myself and no one else.
