How do I create my thoughts?

Steve Chandler is a super coach who powerfully describes the distinction between being an owner and being a victim in his book ‘Reinventing Yourself’ (I definitely recommend this reading to you). The owners of the human spirit take full responsibility for their lives, and they even take responsibility for their energy levels. The victims of circumstances, on the other hand, think all power lies outside themselves, they think that power is in other people and in exterior circumstances.

I chose to be the owner.

But what does this actually mean? How victims and owners choose their thoughts? Really, the difference between the two is the choice you make.

Voices in victim’s heads.

What would others think of me if I do this?

How to act in order to keep the harmony?

How could I put myself forward if everyone around me needs so much help from me?

If I’m caring and nice they will be nice to me too, right?

Why does all this have to happen with me?

What did I do wrong so life takes revenge over me?

How could you do this to me?

Why does life punish me?

Do I deserve this?

How could I be happy if all these things happen around me?

Life is unfair.

How could I be happy after all that happened to me?

If I had more money…

Statements I often here from victims.

I don’t have enough time, I cannot even think of what I want.

I’m tired.

I am a responsible person, I cannot do whatever I want.

I hate conflicts, so I rather stay silent with my thoughts.

I don’t have energy for doing what I really like in my spare time.

I would love to, but…

I don’t want to hurt anyone, so I cannot refuse, I never say no.

It is not up to me what is going to happen, so I better do not commit myself.

I gave him/her everything, and what for? I could wait for people’s gratitude…

I know I am the best, but life is unfair.

I had luck./I didn’t have luck.

The world/people are against me, and I am alone in this battle.

I always have bad luck, but this time I was lucky.

A great percentage of what I accomplished is a matter of luck.

I cannot afford it.

Voices in owner’s heads.

If I had more courage, I could accomplish more.

I want it, no matter what.

I choose the lifestyle I desire and I make it happen.

If others can weaken my belief, it means, I don’t want it enough.

The more I fail the more I learn.

Mistakes are the signs of taking action.

My thoughts are the only things that can hold me back from doing what I really want.

How far I go is a matter of how strong the fear is in me.

There is nothing that I HAVE TO do.

I never regret my decisions, I embrace my failures and I learn from them.

No-one can stop me from doing what I want to do.

How I see the world is how I think about it.

I create my experience of everything through the way I think about it.

I could live the life I desire, but I can also choose not to.

Even if I die of hunger, I’ll do it, because it is important to me.

Money is just money.

What is the choice you already made and keep following?
Or what is the choice you’re ready to make after reading my summary?
