You can behave like a leader, which is assuming personal responsibility for your results. Or you can be like a victim, which is something bad happens or something doesn't quite work out, and you give away your power and you blame and you complain and you become toxic. And right now, the world has far too many victims, people who are rather than looking in the mirror saying, "I have the power to change, and I might not like where I'm at in my work right now, or in my life, or in my health, or in my love or in my spirituality, but I have the power to change." Well, victims say, "I might not be where I am at in the world, but it's because of the world. It's because of my childhood. It's because of my husband, my wife, my boss, my team, my country, my economy." And so my loving encouragement to you is ask yourself right now, "Am I behaving like a victim?" Maybe it's in your health life, maybe it's with your finances. And a victim would be saying, "I can't do this."That's what victims do. "I can't do this." Or victims, they point fingers. "Well, it's the economy where I live right now," or, "It's the industry. It's going through a lot of commoditization and a lot of disruption. And if I was in a different industry, I'd be successful." Ultimately, we all know this. We create a reality. And even in the most difficult and most competitive industries, there are people who are playing at world-class, who are doing really well. Why? Because they have a different approach. Because they're doing different things. And fundamentally, they're not behaving like victims, blaming and complaining and being toxic and wasting time and living in the past. They're showing up like leaders.
