When we’re stuck in victim mentality our happiness depends on external things:
Circumstances
Other people
We blame external circumstances for our happiness or lack thereof.
We THINK that we’re unhappy because of external things: But, the cause of our unhappiness is our thoughts.
Blaming leaves us powerless.
If we depend on the actions of other people to make us happy we’re at their mercy.
When they don’t make us happy then we try to change them.
We can’t change other people.
As teachers it’s important to manage our emotions and not make decisions from that reactive place.
We can take full responsibility for how we feel.
We don’t have to depend on people or our situation changing. We can change how we feel by changing our thoughts.
This is empowering - recognizing that students’ behavior is not about us. It gives us access to then be able to help them.
