‘Want to know the difference between bullying and accountability? Here are all the details you need to know.

Some people tend to claim the victim role when faced with consequences for their bad behavior. Bullies do this all the time.

Therefore, in this post, you will learn the difference between bullying and accountability. You will also learn why consequences are needed to ensure a peaceful society.

Once you learn all about these essential facts, you will be able to confidently call out someone’s bad behavior. Moreover, you’ll be ready when they accuse you of being a bully.

This post is all about the difference between bullying and accountability. This is so that it won’t confuse you when bullies accuse you of bullying just for exposing their evil actions.

Trigger warning: Although I usually keep politics out of this blog, Bullying and politics go hand in hand. Therefore, a minimal amount of it will be touched on in this particular post. So, if you are easily offended, I would advise you not to read. If you do read this post, do so at your own risk.

The Difference between bullying and accountability

I received an email yesterday. The author of this email tried to shame me. They say that I called my bullies names and that it weakens the cause. Fair enough. They have a right to their opinion. And I respect their opinion, though I disagree with it.

In fact, I’m thankful for that email because it prompted me to write a post on a subject that has needed to be addressed for a long time now. It’s time that we learn the difference between bullying and consequences.

Bullying is about doing harm to someone who has done nothing to you. Accountability is about forcing someone to take RESPONSIBILITY for their bad behavior.

Most victims of bullying are good people who do not harm others. In fact, most of them have hearts of gold. And it’s why bullies and abusers take their kindness for weakness.

Bullying is about trying to hurt those who have done nothing to hurt you. You don’t have to provoke a bully.

Bullies are always on the hunt for victims. They go after those who have a characteristic they see as a weakness or someone they perceive as a threat to their power.

Accountability, on the other hand, is the consequences you suffer for bad deeds. It comes in many forms. People may call you out and expose you for evil actions. You may lose friends and associates, or your business may take a hit.

If you’re a kid, your school may suspend you. Also, your parents may ground you. If you’re an adult, you may lose your job or go to jail. When you try to attack someone, they may defend themselves and kick your tail up between your shoulders. Again, this is not bullying; it’s consequences.

And we need consequences to live in a safe and peaceful society.

The Difference Between Bullying and Accountability:

When you Set out to harm someone else, you forfeit your rights to dignity and respect

The epidemic of entitlement on this rock blows my mind. Too many think that they can do all the violence they want, but no one is supposed to hold them responsible for it.

Moreover, when someone does impose consequences on them, the first thing they do is scream, “bullying.” Bullies are notorious for this. And there is a name for such individuals. We call them a “crybully.”

The term is a combination of the terms “bully” and “crybaby.” Therefore, you get “crybully.”

Here’s a fact that most in today’s politically correct world don’t want to hear. In fact, they’ll probably get angry and label me a hypocrite. But do what you like, I’ll say it anyway.

When you deliberately try to hurt innocent others, you automatically forfeit any right to respect and dignity. Criminals forfeit not only their right to dignity and respect, but also their freedom when they commit crimes.

However, today, schools and workplaces coddle bullies. And the powers that be coddle criminals with the infamous “Catch and Release” and “Cashless bail.”

In fact, media outlets try to shame us for calling these predators what they are. Names, such as “thugs, monsters, terrorists, murderers, rapists,” and a host of others, are considered politically incorrect.

However, to hold bad people accountable, we need to stand up to PC because it is the downfall of society. We need to grow a spine and start calling evil individuals and groups what they are (i.e., Antifa = terrorists), it doesn’t matter who they are or what side they’re on.

Tell them what they are because they gave up their rights when they did wrong to others.

The Difference between bullying and accountability:

Too many people want to cry “bullying” when someone exposes their bad behavior.

The truth is that bad people hate having their conscience thumped at. Therefore, they whine and complain when someone calls them out. They reverse the roles of victim and perpetrator.

Many use their minority status or sexual orientation as crutches. You know what I’m talking about. You see it every day now. And they do this because they’re nothing but cowards.

However, wrong is wrong; it doesn’t matter your race, class, nationality, or sexual orientation. When you hurt someone, all that other BS is irrelevant! The only thing that matters is that you murdered someone, or you physically assaulted, raped, or bullied them.

It’s funny how tough these monsters are when they’re hurting someone else. But under the threat of accountability, they turn into the biggest cowards.

It’s time we start imposing consequences on those who do evil. This is why I urge those who are bullied to defend themselves- to stand up to bullies because most people in power will not hold evil responsible for their actions.

Therefore, if you’re bullied, it’s your responsibility to set boundaries and ensure your safety. And no law says you have to censor your words when it comes to this. Call your bullies and other evil people what they are.

The Difference Between Bullying and Accountability:

It’s time that we learn to distinguish between being bullied and being held responsible.

When you address someone’s bad behavior and they cry, “bully,” don’t buy it. Don’t let them shame you into silence or sugar-coat their actions. You say it and you say it directly. And if someone tries to harm you or your loved ones, you have every right to make them regret it.

And when they accuse you of bullying. You stand up and firmly say, “No! That wasn’t bullying, that was self-defense!”

The Difference between Bullying and Accountability:

VictimHood Does Not Excuse Bad Behavior

You see it all the time nowadays. Most baddies use past victimhood as an excuse to harm others. We’ve all been through bad times. Moreover, many people have suffered from bullying, abuse, and unfair treatment. However, it doesn’t excuse wrongdoing.

Just because someone victimized you doesn’t mean you get to go out and victimize another person. You cannot hurt people to get even with the world because it has shown its mean face to you.

Therefore, if you deliberately cause someone harm, you must face accountability for wrongdoing regardless of what you’ve been through. And copping out behind past victimhood only makes you look pathetic. The world doesn’t owe you a get-out-of-jail-free card.

It amazes me that so many people have the idea that when someone faces consequences for wrongdoing, they’re being bullied. And it’s why the term “bullying” has lost its meaning in the last few years.

Many seem to think that they can do whatever they want to others, then, when they get caught and are forced to face accountability, they want to claim that they’re being bullied? Ahem…no. There’s a difference between bullying and accountability. Consequences is not bullying.

The Difference Between Bullying and Accountability:

Cancel Culture Reversed

Many of the original supporters of cancel culture are now being cancelled. In the wake of Charlie Kirk’s assassination, many people have celebrated the horrific way he left this world. Never mind that this man was a husband and father of two small children.

And it did not matter that this man was willing to have open dialogue with the very people who hated him. All that mattered was that they hated him, and they wanted him gone. They were not willing to talk it out, and no one could reason with them.

But that’s what happens when a person is demonized for so long. People believe the lies, and they don’t want to hear the truth about the person. It’s the same with bullying in school and the workplace.

No one deserves to be murdered, no matter who they are or what their beliefs are.

Sadly, to justify harming someone, Bullies must first demonize them.

Again, once bullies have succeeded in demonizing their victim, no one wants to hear the truth about them – that they may actually be a good person. And this is how bad people murder innocent people.

Many have posted vile things, films, and memes online about Charlie’s assassination. They’ve laughed, joked, and mocked his death. Or they’ve blamed him for his own murder. And, what they are doing is disgusting, it’s despicable, and it’s grotesque!

And why? Because he didn’t share their values and beliefs? There are people whom I disagree with. And there are those I strongly dislike. But I would never – not in a million years- cheer and celebrate their death, especially if someone killed them. Most human beings – real human beings wouldn’t.

Only demons from the deepest, darkest pits of hell celebrate murder. And now, they are losing their jobs left and right because of their evil online behavior. Those who supported cancel culture against others who refused to wear masks back during the COVID era are now being cancelled for their evil posts.

And they claim that people are bullying them. No! People are holding them accountable for vile online behavior.

It’s not Bullying, It’s Consequences.

During the last day or so, many people who celebrated this murder have posted videos of themselves crying and having a complete mental episode because they lost their jobs. However, they don’t realize that actions have consequences.

Now, most people like them may say it’s free speech. And I’m all for free speech. However, this is not about free speech; it’s about decency. It’s about being a human being.

When people speak the kind of evil they have about Charlie Kirk since his death, they reveal exactly who they are. Therefore, when they show themselves to be soulless and ghoulish people, no decent person wants to associate with them, much less employ them.

The Difference Between Bullying and Accountability:

It’s not about politics, it’s about Right and Wrong

For too many years, people in power with bad intentions have politicized right and wrong. They victimize an innocent person, then play victim when they face consequences. And it’s a shame. But wrong is wrong, no matter how you politicize it.

And when you do wrong, there are consequences for it. Therefore, accountability is not bullying. We call this responsibility.

Rest in Jesus’ arms, Charlie Kirk!

This post is all about the difference between bullying and accountability so that bad people won’t confuse you when they face consequences for their bad behavior by claiming that they’re being bullied.

Bullies and Victim-Mentality: 9 Behaviors of Bullies Who Play Victim

June 23, 2025July 25, 20256 Comments

‘Want to know about bullies and victim-mentality? Here’s everything you need to know.

Bullies don’t mind dishing the nastiness out to their victims. However, when the victims start giving it back to them, they’ll play the victim-role real quickly.

In fact, they’re the biggest cry-babies in the world!

Therefore, in this post you will learn all about bullies and victim-mentality so that you can keep from being blamed for their attacks.

Once you learn all about these important facts, you will be able to confidently call them out when you defend yourself against your bullies and they try to act like they’re the victims.

This post is all about bullies and victim-mentality so that you can recognize the behavior and call it out. Also, you can protect yourself from getting blamed for your bullies’ ratchet behavior.

Bullies and Victim-Mentality

Bullies have a grandiose sense of entitlement. Why? Because they’re so quick to attack you without provocation. However, you finally get fed up and show your ugly side, it not only surprises them, it also offends them.

Therefore, they’ll assume the victim role.

Here are 9 behaviors of bullies who play victim.

1. They Dissolve into a puddle of tears.

If a bully thinks they’re about to get into trouble over their bad behavior, they’ll quickly turn on the water works. They’ll cry those crocodile tears and play the victim.

Unfortunately, they’ll do it so convincingly that others will fall for their bullshit. Therefore, be prepared and don’t take the blame for their bad behavior.

Call out those fake tears. And do it loudly and with confidence. Why? Because they’re nothing but a bunch of cry-bullies.

2. They Get Outraged at you for standing up to them.

Understand that bullies feel entitled to do whatever they want to do and you have no right to stop them. In fact, they believe you don’t have a right to even speak against it.

They think that they are beyond reproach and that you should never question their behavior.

You’re bullies think they have a right to mistreat you and you’re just supposed to bow down and take their crap. You’re just supposed to let them harm you and take it with a smile.

Why? Because, in their minds, you’re inferior. So, you should just shut your mouth and take it. They may not come out and say it. However, this is how these chumps think.

3. Bullies and victim-mentality:

They’ll gripe, whine, and complain when things don’t go their way.

For instance, if you hold them accountable for anything, your bullies will bitch, moan, and regress into a toddler. If you stand up to them, they may run to a teacher or boss-man and cry like a little bitch.

They might throw a temper tantrum, railing against the injustice and unfairness of it all.

Also, they may also do something to get back at you for daring to stand up for yourself. Understand that cry-bullies must always get their way. This is why they get furious with and throw a fit with you.

Then, they’ll tell anyone who’ll listen that you’re the bully.

4. They’ll shout you down when call them out on their bad behavior.

To them, their words and opinions are golden. Therefore, if you happen to speak against them, your bullies will instantly turn into petulant children.

They’ll call you all kinds of ugly names and launch personal attacks against you. Moreover, they may even hit you first.

But, if you hit them back, they will cry like a wimp and claim you started it.

5. Bullies and Victim-Mentality:

They want everything handed to them.

Cry-bullies are entitled to have whatever they want when they want it. They don’t like to work for anything. Moreover, they don’t like to wait for it either.

These types of people are impatient. When they want something, they want it right then. And they’ll never stop bothering you until you cave in and give it to them.

You must understand that your bullies do this to wear you down. However, don’t give them the satisfaction. Double down and resist, no matter what! Stand firm, if for nothing more than to teach them a lesson.

6. They hate it when someone else has life better than they do.

When your bullies see you doing better than them, it makes them feel indignant. In other words, they feel that life hasn’t given them a fair shake.

They will often sulk and play on others’ sympathy. Also, they will try to get back at you for being just a little luckier than they are.

Understand that these types of individuals see your successes as injustice.

7. They Shift the blame to you.

This point takes me back to how the bully tries to make you look like the bully. In some cases, this person deludes herself into believing that she is, in fact, the victim.

And sadly, they’re very successful in making others believe that garbage.

Therefore, when you think of a cry-bully, think Nellie Olson in the TV series, “Little House on the Prairie.”

Don’t pander to the crybully and don’t be too nice and try to calm them down. If you do, they’ll only keep manipulating you.

8. Bullies and Victim-Mentality:

Many Bullies Cop Out Behind Victimization.

Too many people use past trauma as justification for wrongdoing. They feel that because they suffered, life owes them somehow.

I have seen people mistreat others merely because of the bullying they suffered in the past. But, why do they do this? It’s because they think that it’s the only way they can feel empowered again.

Sadly, I was guilty of the same thing in high school. It isn’t something I’m proud of today.

For example, some may choose to rob a bank or burn down a corporate building because they grew up poor. Because they didn’t get a fair shake in life, they think that it justifies their crimes.

In their minds, the world owes them. Therefore, they have a good excuse for striking back against a system they believe screwed them over.

And, when the law finally catches them and hauls them off to jail, they become even more embittered. Why? Because they believe that being held responsible for their crimes only further evidences that they aren’t getting a fair shake.

We’re all responsible for our actions regardless of what happened to us in the past.

Evil behavior always brings consequences. You reap what you sow.

Your feelings are valid but your actions aren’t. Past victimization does not justify wrongdoing. Ever! A reason does not equal an excuse. We’re all responsible for our lives, whether you like it or not.

I could have gone on bullying others because people bullied me in the past. But where would it have gotten me? Nowhere! That behavior would have only brought consequences and more misery.

Wouldn’t it be better to learn from adversity and take accountability for your life? Therefore, it’s up to you to try to make your life better than it was in the past.

9. Bullies and Victim-Mentality:

They live in the past.

Now, reminiscing isn’t a bad thing. To look back on yesterday, when life was much simpler, makes you feel good. Happy memories always make you feel better.

However, when you constantly ruminate on the bad stuff that happened to you, that’s when it becomes a problem.

You hold grudges. And you long to someday get back at the person who hurt you. This isn’t good for anyone. It only eats you out from the inside.

Bullies are notorious for holding grudges.

Sadly, too many survivors of bullying hold on to grudges. They constantly ruminate over the bullying they endured, wishing they had knocked the hell out of the bully. They look back with remorse, shame, guilt, and regret.

Now, it’s normal to do right after you’ve gotten out of the toxic environment that encouraged the bullying. I completely understand. However, when this goes on for too many years, you only hold yourself back. Unnecessary baggage only keeps you down.

Therefore, don’t trap yourself in an endless cycle of what-ifs. Why? Because, when you do, you only keep yourself stuck in a quagmire of misery.

Also, you forgo opportunities to learn from and grow from those experiences.

So, let it go. Accept what happened and learn from it. Let it make you better instead of bitter!Only then can you reach empowerment and find happiness.

In Closing

Nothing makes you sicker than seeing some punk bully start something they can’t finish. And there’s nothing more pathetic than a bully who pushes someone too far, than cries like a schoolyard sissy when they get their ass kicked up between their shoulders.

But sadly, this is how most of them get away with bullying.

Therefore, if you’re a bully, do yourself a favor. Don’t mess with someone and expect not to get some in return. Don’t be a cry-bully.

And, if you’re a victim, stand up for yourself even if your bully tries to put on the innocent little victim act. Continue to hold your boundaries.

Don’t fall for the crocodile tears or the selective outrage. Call that shit out! And stand strong. Realize that victim-mentality is only a farce, designed to keep your bullies’ asses out of trouble.

And lastly, and most importantly, refuse to see yourself as a victim. Instead, see yourself as a target. Why? Because there’s a difference between a target of bullying and a victim of bullying.

This post is all about bullies and victim-mentality so that you can recognize it when you see it and be prepared for it when you stand up to your bullies.

What is a Crybully and How Do You Spot One?

December 2, 2024November 12, 20246 Comments

Do you want to know all about the crybully and all the signs of one? Here is the definition of it and the characteristics of this pathetic type of bully.

Crybullies are pathetic human beings. They act tough but the minute you give them a dose of their own medicine, they run crying to a teacher, supervisor, manager… anyone who will listen. Moreover, they have ways of making you look like the bad guy when, in fact, you were only defending yourself against their vitriol.

Therefore, in this post, you will learn all about the crybully, the signs you’re dealing with one, and the tactics they use to play the victim.

Once you learn this important information, you will be able to call them what they are and nail them on their tactics. As a result, you will be a wonderful advocate not only for yourself but for anyone else these people bully.

This post is all about the crybully so that you can confidently call them out and protect yourself from blame.

A new term has emerged in the last few years to describe the pathetic type of person who doesn’t mind dishing out the crap but can’t handle it when it gets kicked back their way. We call this person, a crybully.

So, what is a crybully?

A crybully is a bully who’s also a crybaby, who runs to authority and “cries like a little bitch” whenever their targets stand up to them.

Here’s how they operate.

These people repeatedly provoke their victims for an extended period of time. Moreover, the target first tries to ignore them to avoid conflict and keep down the drama.

However, this only serves to encourage the crybully to continue and escalate the behavior. Why? Because they come to believe that the victim is a wimp who won’t do anything about it.

Therefore, they think that they can continue to bully the target and get away with it.

But when the target finally gets fed up with their crap and responds in kind, the crybully suddenly gets their little feelings hurt and feels indignant.

So, to get back at the target for daring to stand up to them, the crybully runs to a teacher, principal, supervisor, or manager.

This person tattles on the victim, like the schoolyard sissy they are. They play the victim while painting the target as the bully. Therefore, bystanders and authority become outraged at the victim.

They accuse the innocent person of being the bully while giving the real bully sympathy.

How the crybully benefits from playing the victim

The instigator then basks in the attention as others give her a pat on the head and lavish her with sympathy. All the while, they also get satisfaction with the blame others place on the real victim.

This gives the crybully a huge sense of power.

Moreover, these types of bullies will also disparage their targets to peers in efforts to smear them and trash their reputation. Understand that these types of manipulators are everywhere and they’re vindictive!

However, understand that this kind of behavior only speaks volumes of these types of bullies. It says that they’re not only cowards but entitled little brats.

They think they should be allowed to treat others any way they want without repercussions. These people are the pathetic ones here.

Therefore, you should be proud of yourself and feel good in knowing that you don’t have to resort to these shenanigans. And in situations such as these, these types of bullies should be the subject of your ridicule.

Because ridicule and shame will be the only way to make these bullies leave you alone.

How do you spot these types of people?

1. Characteristics of the Crybully:

Self-entitlement

Again, this person doesn’t mind provoking you over and over, but when you finally get fed up and show your ugly side, they aren’t only surprised but offended.

Understand that these types of bullies feel entitled to do whatever they want to do and that you have no right to stop her. Moreover, they believe you don’t have a right to even say anything against it.

These types think that they are beyond reproach and that you should never question their behavior.

Understand that they feel that the world owes them and that they have the right to mistreat you. Even more astonishing is that they think that you’re just supposed to bow down to them and take the abuse.

In other words, they expect you to let them harm you, then take it with a smile and a yes sir/ma’am. Why? Because:

“I’m always right, and you’re always wrong.”

“I’m better than you.”

“You’re inferior to me, I’m superior to you, and how dare you stand up to me? You have no rights as far as I’m concerned.”

Note the quotations above and understand that, though they may never come out and say it, this is how these chumps think.

2. A crybully will gripe, whine, and complain when something they don’t like happens.

For instance, you call the bully out on his BS. Moreover, you report or speak out about his bullying. In other words, you say or do anything to prompt authority figures to hold him accountable for his despicable behavior.

Therefore, the manipulator will then bitch, moan, and regress into a toddler if they have to face responsibility for anything. He’ll throw a temper tantrum, railing against the injustice and unfairness of it all.

He may also do something to get back at you for daring to stand up for yourself.

Understand that crybullies must always get their way. Also, they think they can do no wrong. Many times, they will get furious with and throw a fit with you.

If the crybully is female, she may dissolve into a puddle of tears and tell not only authority but anyone who’ll listen that you’re the bully.

3. These manipulators will shout you down if you don’t agree with them or you call them out on their bad behavior.

They think their words, actions, and beliefs are golden. If you happen to speak against their deplorable behavior or hold a different view, crybullies will instantly turn into petulant children.

They’ll call you all kinds of ugly names and launch personal attacks against you. Moreover, they may even hit you first. But, if you hit them back, they will cry like a wimp and claim that you started it.

4. A crybully wants everything handed to them and doesn’t like to put in the effort to earn it.

Crybullies are entitled to have whatever they want when and how they want it. They don’t like to work for anything. Also, they don’t like to wait for it either.

In other words, these types of people are impatient. When they want something, they want it right now, not five minutes from now, not even one minute from now.

They’re like spoiled children. If they don’t get what they want, they will never stop bothering you until you cave in and give it to them.

You must understand that crybullies do this to wear you down. However, you must only double down and resist, no matter what. So, stand firm if for nothing more than to teach them a lesson.

5. Crybullies hate the thought of anyone else having a life better than they do.

When these kinds of people see someone else doing better than them at anything, it makes them feel indignant. In other words, they feel that life hasn’t given them a fair shake.

They will often sulk and play on others’ sympathy. Also, they will also try to get back at the person for being just a little luckier than they are.

Understand that these types of individuals see the success of anyone else other then themselves as injustice.

6. They Have a victim mentality.

This point takes me back to how the crybully tries to make the victim look like the bully. In some cases, this person deludes herself into believing that she is, in fact, the victim.

And sadly, they’re very successful in making others believe that horse manure.

Therefore, when you think of a crybully, think Nellie Olson in the TV series, “Little House on the Prairie.”

Don’t pander to the crybully and don’t be too nice and try to calm them down. If you do, they only keep manipulating you.

There you have it, folks. If you see any of the above characteristics, you might have a crybully on your hands. The best way to battle this type of bullying is to name it and shame it. Putting a name on these things makes them so much easier to deal with and overcome.

This post is all about the crybully and their traits so that you can confidently and successfully call them out on their bullshit and protect yourself from their incessant gaslighting.

Victim mentality doesn’t serve you. It only drags you down and keeps you there. In fact, victim mentality has a negative effect on all aspects of your life, from relationships and friendships, to business and employment prospects, to finances.

Therefore, as someone who’s been there, I’m giving you all the mind hacks that I and many others swear by.

How to overcome victim mentality

First, let’s discuss why victim-think is so bad for your life.

Now, it’s okay to be angry and to take time out to feel those emotions when someone does you wrong. It’s natural to need time to heal. And I respect that.

However, don’t set up shop and live in that yucky place for long. Because, if you stay there, it will ruin your life.

Understand that holding hate and trying to seek revenge over something that some creep did to you in the past is counterproductive. Moreover, it comes from a victim mentality. It also comes from feeling that the transgressor owes you some form of satisfaction, restitution, or atonement.

Unfortunately, life doesn’t work that way. This kind of attitude only makes you miserable.

I want you to realize that a victim mentality is never good because it keeps you trapped in an abyss of anger and hatred. Moreover, spending too much time in this state only leads to depression and poor mental health.

You feel like the world owes you. However, what you don’t realize is that even if the world did give you what you feel you’re owed, you’d still never be happy and you’d only want more, more, and more.

This is why it’s crucial that you know how to overcome victim mentality.

Take it from someone who’s been there. Holding onto resentment and hatred is no way to live. It’s a dark and ugly place to be.

Therefore, I can’t stress how important it is for you to rid yourself of victim-think. It’s the only way you’ll ever reach that beautiful place of self-acceptance and ultimately, peace and happiness. And once you do, it will be such sweet freedom!

You can do this! I’ve got faith in you!

Before we get into the mind hacks, let’s now discuss the benefits you’ll get once you put these mind hacks to practice. Now, one thing you must know is that you can’t one practice them one time and expect to reap the advantages I’m about to spill here.

Once you know these mental training exercises, you must get into the habit of practicing them every day. Then, slowly but surely, you will notice the benefits, and, here they are!

Benefit 1

You’ll no longer feel like you’re less than.

You’re a survivor. In fact, You’ll soon find out that you’re more than that!

Here’s how to overcome victim mentality. Finally! The Mind Hacks!

1. refuse to allow bullies from the past to take up space in Your mind

In other words, stop letting them live rent-free in your head. Don’t waste another drop of precious energy on people who were never worth it in the first place.

Know that when you hold grudges, you waste your time thinking about people who probably don’t give you so much as a thought. Why? Because you’re not important to them. Yet you make them important by having them in your head.

You give them power over the way you feel and over your life. Realize that life is too short and you only have one to live. Therefore, stop wasting your time on people who aren’t worth a puddle of pee.

Take your power back and use it to better your own life.

2. How to overcome victim mentality: accept yourself, flaws, quirks, and all.

Put simpler, decide once and for all that you’re okay just the way God made you. Realize that you need no one else’s approval, least of all, theirs!

Why should you care about winning acceptance from anyone else? Decide today that you’re just as important without anyone else’s say so. Who is anyone to decide your worth? Only you can do that. This is how you raise your self-esteem.

3. Make it your mission to love and take care of yourself and the people who truly matter in your life.

And that includes weeding out toxic people who are only there to use you and to see you fail- those who don’t belong in your life.

Also, know that you’re the only one who’s responsible for your life and the outcomes of your situations. No one else is accountable for these things.

4. How to overcome victim mentality: You do it by focusing on things that are important

Therefore, focus on God, family, your closest friends. Moreover, keep your mind on being the best version of you that you can possibly be. Also, focus on your goals and dreams. Keep your mind on any projects you may be working on or anything you love to do.

In other words, focus on your hobbies and anything that you enjoy doing. Spend time with those who love you most and vise versa. Keep company with those who celebrate you and lift you up while avoiding the creeps who bring you down.

Practice self-care and create as many good memories in your life as you possibly can.

**5. Lastly and most importantly, Forgive.**

I can just hear some of you now. “Oh, she must be out of her rabid-ass mind!” “She must be stark-raving mad! “No way! They don’t deserve my forgiveness after the hell they put me through!”

And maybe they don’t. But you deserve it.

In other words, you deserve to be able to let go of the pain. You also deserve the freedom and peace that comes after you forgive those who’ve hurt you. Also, you deserve the blessings and good things that follow.

Trust me when I say that forgiveness changes your life for the better. You will see a dramatic improvement in your health, mental and physical.

Moreover, you will also see a significant change in your circumstances. You’d be surprised at the awesome blessings that come your way once you decide to forgive and move on. You will even have success in the things you set out to do and achieve more than you ever thought you would!

Most importantly, you will rise above anything your enemies tried to do to bring you down. And you will frustrate them because they couldn’t keep you down! Yes, that hurts them more than any revenge you could ever take.

It happened for me and it’ll happen for you too. I guarantee it.

So, stop feeling sorry for yourself. Know that you have the delicious power to change your life!
