Loving On Purpose

Acting Like An Adult vs. Acting Like A Child


Listen Later

We have a choice of what kind of life we want to live, emotionally.  We can believe we are a victim of our circumstances or we take responsibility to feel anyway we want to feel.  When we play victim, we lose all control of living the life we want to live.  When we take responsibility for what we can control, our thoughts and feelings, we determine the outcome of our lives.  This episode teaches you the difference between emotional childhood, where you are the victim, and emotional adulthood, where you are the "captain" of your life.  It's no wonder most of us feel like victims to our circumstances because no one ever taught us how feelings are created.  It's a game changer to know that it's your responsibility to fulfill your own needs, and not be dependent on others to do it for you.
