Key Points

The lens we use to look at the world and ourselves is actually how the world reacts back to us.
What we look for is what we find.
When you finish complaining and moaning, are you empowered or disempowered?
We have an incredible privilege of choice to either take responsibility or to blame.

The 3 types of victims:

Martyr victim – the victim who feels sorry for themselves
Arrogant inferior victim – the person who cuts others down so he or she can feel better about themself
Arrogant superior victim – the person who thinks all problems are below them, that everybody else is a fool who can’t do anything right
