Linda's Corner: Hope - Healing - Happiness
Not a victim anymore - Wilk Wilkinson (overcoming perpetual victim mentality)
Show Notes

Wilk Wilkinson endured horrible bullying and other trauma as a child, and that victim mentality carried with him to adulthood until he made a decision that he wasn't going to be a victim any more.  Wilk is a husband, father, Christian conservative, and the host of the Derate the Hate podcast.  You can reach Wilk at his website   https://deratethehate.com/  

Some of the highlights from Wilk:

  • "I decided I wouldn't be a victim any more"
  • Perpetual victim mentality can lead to self destructive behavior
  • Perpetual victim mentality can lead to self fulfilling prophecy
  • No one can change how you feel, but we have a responsibility to change the way we behave
  • The keys to overcoming victim mentality are gratitude and personal accountability
  • We are not powerless in our life - claim your power
  • What is the Reticular Activating System and how can it help me (or hinder me)?
  • Making simple changes bring positive results
  • We may not have control over everything that happens in our lives, but we have the power to choose how we respond.
  • And more
