Victim Mentality Statements
Look what you made me do!!
I told you not to do it like that.
Nobody every listens to me.
If it weren’t for you I could get my job done
Who did this?
It’s not my fault!
What did you do it that way for?
Can you believe what he/she just said/did to me?
If things are going wrong, or badly, or not
to my liking, then someone is to blame. It is
necessary to identify the persons,
circumstances, or sources of why things are
not as I think they should be. Blame must
be determined and accepted by the
wrongdoer, and things must be made right.
I am justified in being emotionally upset.
Neither growth nor learning result from the
bad things that happen to me.
The Victim Mentality
Everything that happens to me
provides me with Opportunities
For Learning And
Growth. I cannot blame
anyone else for
how I
feel, what I do, or
the
attitude I choose.
The Totally Responsible Person (TRP)
1. Everything that happens to me provides me with opportunities for learning and growth.
TRP-THE ELEMENTS
“At one point I was a product of my environment but in time I made my environment a product of me. I’ve learned to eliminate the excuses that today our youth use to justify their failure. If you want to get out of your situation you can, but you must decide to do so. I didn’t blame the problems I encountered through life on my parents.”
