Being powerful isn't about having money, fame, or a certain job. 𝐓𝐫𝐮𝐞 𝐩𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫 𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐚𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐨𝐰𝐧 𝐟𝐮𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞.
If you feel powerless, be aware that you may be trapped by the greatest enemy of power: #𝐯𝐢𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐦.
Victimism means surrendering your power to circumstances, other people, or external factors like your genes or bad luck.
👉🏻 𝐕𝐢𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐦 𝐢𝐬 𝐚 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐜𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐞:
• You don’t have to put in the effort to change your situation.
• You receive sympathy from others.
• You become the center of attention for a while.
But in the long run, it leads to depression.
👉🏻 𝐓𝐨 𝐛𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐤 𝐟𝐫𝐞𝐞 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐝𝐨𝐰𝐧𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐝 𝐬𝐩𝐢𝐫𝐚𝐥 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐥𝐚𝐢𝐦 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐩𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫, 𝐝𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐨𝐰𝐢𝐧𝐠:
• Stop blaming others or your circumstances.
• Set boundaries. Don’t let others make decisions that affect your life.
• Seek out options. They’re out there, waiting to be discovered.
• Take action. Start with small steps, changing one thing at a time.
👍🏻 YOU HAVE FAR MORE POWER THAT REALIZE. YOU JUST NEED TO PUT IT TO WORK.
Have a beautiful day!
