Transform from Victim to Thriver

I am a Thriver of Abuse.  I used to be a Victim, and I was a really good victim!  If I do anything, I’ll do a good job of it!

Being a victim wasn’t doing me any good though.  All I did was talk the story.  Nothing changed.

I had to change my perspective if I was going to get moving again.

"People who consider themselves victims of their circumstances will always remain victims unless they develop a greater vision for their lives." ~ Stedman Graham

I stopped talking the story, and I moved from a Victim to a Survivor. 

I changed my story, and I moved from a Survivor to a Thriver.

I didn’t change the event.  I simply changed how I thought about the event.  I found gifts. I found value. That changed everything, including me.

Think about an event of your life that left you feeling like a victim, and then take the Joy Challenge.

JOY Challenge:

What’s one Gift I have received from my Event?
