When it comes to
gaining your self-confidence it can be difficult to come by and easy to lose if
not nurtured and worked on continually. Self-confidence is vital when it comes to
feeling as if you are in charge of your of your life and with self-confidence,
you will feel more like the victor rather than the victim in life.
The victim's
mentality is the case where the individual does not take personal
responsibility for their life and feels that the world is against them or that
they need a lucky break to succeed in life. Whereas the self-confident
individual understands that they are in charge and that if they are to achieve
any goal in life they have the ability to work through whatever obstacles may
stand in their way. And they learn to either find a way or make a way.
To avoid thinking
like a victim, and to help you feel you are in control, rather than external
forces, and avoid feeling overwhelmed when it comes to achieving your lifetime
goals or taking on a project that seems insurmountable, begin by breaking down
the steps that you need to take to become successful.
By breaking down
your steps into smaller segments whether it is a daily or monthly goal, begin
by working on one particular project at a time until it is completed then start
another. By breaking down large projects or complicated ones, you begin to gain
more self-confidence as it will grow with every successful completion and you
begin to feel you have the upper hand in the situation rather than feeling like
the victim, overwhelmed and defeated.
To avoid feeling
like the victim in life and gaining more self-confidence with each passing day,
you have to learn to adapt and expect the unexpected in life. Becoming self-organized
and practicing good time management when it comes to completing projects or
getting rid of unnecessary problems and time-wasting activities in your life
will help you to learn to adapt and gain the self-confidence you need to be a
victor in life.
Time wasting
activities include staying away from negative thinking people who will try and
tell you you cannot do something or that the system is rigged. People that buy
into that philosophy end up living a life of victimhood and they love nothing
more than to drag you down to their level.
That's not for you,
by learning to think for yourself and staying clear of negative influences you
allow yourself to build your confidence by allowing yourself through decisive
action to prove that you can succeed and become more than you ever thought
possible.
So when it comes to
avoiding thinking like a victim in life, stay proactive, learn to take action
on your dreams, take the personal initiative to find ways to become successful
and in control of your life through a desire to become unstoppable and a
champion.
