Quote of the day: VICTIM

VICTIM

The core issue of the Victim is whether it’s worth giving up your own sense of empowerment to avoid taking responsibility for your independence…The primary objective of the Victim archetype is to develop self-esteem and personal power…To help direct your responses to all of your experiences and relationships, say “I am committed to my own empowerment. What choice can I make here that will serve my own empowerment?” Name the problem or threat you need to overcome and the power that you need to possess in order to do so. Keep your eye on the truth that everything and everyone in your life is there by Contract to assist in your spiritual maturation.
