Step 4 – You take responsibility for your life.
In short, it means that everything is your fault. You are responsible for your life and your reaction to the circumstances that appear in your life.
This is one of the most significant differences between being a victim and a creator. The victim blames everyone and everything for the way their life is.
It is actually not even their fault that they are this way. he victim is only a victim because of a belief system that was handed down by the archetypes in their world at the time. Archetype who in turn got it from their archetypes and so on.
While all this happens in a seemingly repeated cyclical motion, the truth is that everyone is just doing the best they can with what they have learned.
The victim is forever stuck suffering the past or worrying about the future, not knowing that they can change all of it in a single moment by deciding to accept responsibility for their situation.
Two things must be done to change this mindset. The first is letting go of the past which is gone forever and never returning.
After that, we can continue to the second part, which is moving forward by designing the future we want.
Everyone’s starting point will be a little different based on their life situation; however, we can all create a plan to do the things we love and want in our future.
The most amazing thing I experienced about this step is that once I did the work, the results started showing up in my life. It seemed that things started to happen faster than even I expected. The same is possible for you, and I encourage you to start today.
