"Be in charge of the focus of your mind. Discipline yourself to say that today I have a goal greater than to be a victim�You will change dramatically. Reality isn't carved in stone�When we change our point of view about the situation, we will actually experience it in a different way", says Sandy Brewer, author of The Pursuit of Light: An Extraordinary Journey. Most people victimized by an abusive, painful past live with feelings of resentment, anger, and guilt. They are trapped in this negativity, delving deeper into the blackness of their mind. Finding a light in the darkness seems insurmountable. Proactive choices can make the difference between living a life of torment and climbing into the light of a bright, new day. Discipline yourself to cast off the negative thoughts of being a victim. Choose to be in control of your life. When you change your point of view, life changes will follow. A positive point of view will draw you to new situations, experiences, people, successes, and opportunities. Follow this proactive attitude each day, and you will realize that everything has shifted for you. You will see all things in life in a new light, recreating yourself. Turn your past experiences into today's strengths, finding wisdom. Leave everything else behind. About the Author: Dr. Proactive, Randy Gilbert enjoys producing the "Inside Success Show".
