JJ: Overcoming the Victim Mentality
I was painfully reminded at Globo-Corp today that some people always will have a “victim” mentality. “Woe is me, I can’t change my situation.”
These people are dealt a hand and decide they have to stick with it—even if they’re suffering. Active, positive people, on the other hand, believe in changing their situations for the better if they’re not happy. It's a different mindset.
Change may not always happen exactly how we want it, as quickly as we want. But I’ll take my chances and keep shifting my gears and drawing new cards.
