Here's what's not fair:
Begrudging people their achievements, success, possessions, financial status, and good fortune.
When I hold it against others that they have more of anything than I do, I have chosen to be a victim. And victim thinking, self-pity, and envy eat away at my soul, destroy my ability to contribute, and make me a lesser person. Maybe even a small person.
Bottomline, when I play victim, I serve nobody—not even myself. It's far better to flip the switch and completely eliminate victim thinking from my life.
Kevin Brown is right: Bad things happen to all of us. Sometimes those bad things are tragedies beyond our control and sometimes they’re the result of our own mistakes. Either way, the secret to life success is in how I respond, the choices I make, and how I talk to myself.
And I—like you—will engage in healthy, productive, and truth-based self-talk saying:
Success and happiness are based on choice not chance.
My decisions have directed me to my destination.
I am personally accountable for every choice I make.
I am not a victim!
Thoughts like these enable each of us to be outstanding. It’s just as simple as that!
