Sharing a tip on how to develop that mindset of taking ownership
Okay, so you know how people always tell us to take ownership of what happens in our lives like don’t blame others, don’t say “I couldn’t do it because of them” or “I didn’t have the tools”? Honestly, most of us hear that and our ego just screams, “Wait, what? How am I supposed to be responsible for everything that happens to me?”
I used to think the same. Especially when someone really does something wrong to you of course that sucks, and it’s not your fault. So your brain starts asking, “Why should I take all the blame? How is this my responsibility?” And let’s be real, not everyone is mentally strong enough to just accept that right away.
I struggled with this a lot. Every time someone said “just take ownership,” it felt like salt in the ego wound and my brain was like, “Nah, no way.” Then one day I was listening to a podcast this neuroscientist was explaining this idea in such a cool way that it suddenly made sense to me. She said that when you don’t take ownership, what you’re really doing is giving all your power away to someone else. You think you’re blaming another person or your situation, but actually you’re just saying, “Wow, they had way more control over my life than I did.” Like you gave them that power over you.
But when you take ownership? You keep your power. Your brain gets stronger. You start building this inner muscle that helps you deal with life better. For me, that clicked hard it really changed the way I think.
So I just wanted to share this especially for anyone here who’s struggled with the same thing I did. Maybe this way of seeing it will help you too 💛
