Watch Out for That Victimhood Mindset

Do you let your current reality affect how you approach your business and your life? According to host May Yeo Silvers, having that mindset turns you into a victim in your own life. In today’s episode, May warns listeners the dangers of having what she likes to call, a “victimhood mindset.”   While there may be things in your life that make achieving your goals a little more difficult, it doesn’t mean that it can’t change. According to May, when we allow ourselves to think this way, it means we have already allowed ourselves to be defeated. Rather than blaming outside sources, it is more effective to take accountability and understand that we can make things happen for ourselves.    At the end of the day, if you don’t have control of your life it will be hard to find success. Tune into this week’s episode of The Unstoppable Eventrepreneur™ to learn more about how to reshape your mindset, so that you can find the happiness and success that you’ve always dreamed of.    Quotes • “In my perspective, the reality is if you're not getting any momentum it is because you're letting all of your circumstances, which may be your current reality beat you. You are letting your current reality control your faith and control your destiny.” (06:23-06:42 | May) • “There are things that you can do to change your reality. The question is, are you willing to make the effort and the sacrifices to take control of your life?” (07:43-07:59 | May) • “When you lack control or don’t want to make the effort to gain back control, you become the victim of your circumstances.” (09:10-09:20 | May) • “When you think, ‘my circumstances are very different from yours. Therefore, I'm not able to be as successful as you,” you are claiming victimhood.” (09:27-09:39 | May) • “Instead of blaming the circumstances or blaming others, how about taking some accountability and understanding that you can make things happen for yourself.” (11:02-11:20 | May)   Links Connect with me at: [email protected] Website: events4anyone.com LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/mayyeosilvers Facebook: www.facebook.com/mayyeosilvers IG: www.instagram.com/mayyeosilvers TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mayyeosilvers  FB private group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/events4anyone   Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm
