As I’m preparing for the Self-Love workshop later this month I’ve been thinking about some of the ways I’ve shifted my self out of victim patterns of thinking – some that were very subtle.

Do you have a repetitive cycle of being a victim in some way?  A lot of people do.  

Do you ever have fantasies of being a victim?  It might seem insane, but even many very successful people have victim fantasies.

Have you ever let people take advantage of you, just so you could make them feel guilty and bad about it afterwards?  This is a very common thing.

A Course in Miracles talks about the unconscious guilt showing up as the many forms of pain in our life and the hidden desire to be punished, to be the victim, to blame others, all of it and more – is an expression of that belief in guilt.

These are some crazy patterns we get to deal with in our earth experience!  No wonder it can feel so intense.

All those victim stories and victim mind trips take up a huge amount of energy.

They keep us running in circles – mentally and emotionally.

The ego thought system is a bit like the criminal mastermind who works so hard to find a way to steal, cheat and lie to get money when they could apply that same genius capacity to creating something wonderful and achieving abundance that way.  

These are the crazy negative patterns that suck the life out of our life.  And they CAN be healed – this I know, because I’ve proved it with myself and those who participate in my programs.

A single belief is the foundation for a myriad of negative thoughts.  

It’s as though the belief is a host for a bunch of spiders building negative web patterns that are very sticky in our mind.  Let’s give the Higher Holy Spirit Self the heavy lifting.  

What’s SO valuable is to recognize them and interrupt them.  As much as possible

Interrupting these patterns is a BIG part of healing them.

When we interrupt the pattern, rather than investing in it as usual, we begin to see that we are not the pattern.

The victim pattern isn’t part of us, no pattern is.  

The pattern has no power or volition until we invest our belief in it.

Just because we identify with it doesn’t mean that it’s actually what we are.

We’re part of God.  We’re the fullness of God.  We’re the kingdom.  That’s what we are.

There aren’t any REAL benefits to being a victim, but it can seem like there are.  That might seem crazy, but next time you feel the victim story running in your mind, the next time you start fantasizing about being a victim in some way, ask yourself what the value of that is to you.  

Ask yourself what is the perceived benefit?  

Is the benefit that being a victim offers really what motivates you?

Interrupting the pattern makes such a difference in our lives! 

We can do it when you give the heavy lifting to the Higher Holy Spirit Self!  

Make the decision to interrupt the pattern of victimhood and then when the opportunities come, be willing to choose what’s unfamiliar.  No one else can do it for you, but all of life does it WITH you when you say YES!  Why not decide now?  

Our decision to be our true selves, rather than acting like a victim, makes a real difference.

Hold to the decision, partner UP, and be willing to practice.  You’ll be amazed at how quickly you can release the patterns of a life time!

Find ways to demonstrate your willingness and don’t ever give up!
