Nobody is coming to save you. How many times have you heard that already? It’s ridiculous how much we stand around in hopes that someone will swoop us up and take control of our lives and clean up the mess we have made. This learned helplessness can keep us frozen and looking outward for solutions to our problems. This mentality can keep us dependent on others and cause us to listen to bad advice. Take the wrong actions that are ultimately unhealthy for ourselves and others. So, let’s get this straight. NOBODY IS COMING TO SAVE YOU! YOU ARE IT! This is not to say that others are not there to help. This is to say that it is ultimately up to you to get the things that you need. Ask the questions. Seek your answers and devour the knowledge and wisdom that others are willing to provide to you. Don’t hesitate. Your actual rescue starts today.
