Do you ever pity yourself? In other words, do you ever portray yourself as a victim (whether of circumstances or of other people’s behavior) in order to gain sympathy from others? I think we all have a tendency to play the victim more than we'd like to admit. And yet, playing the victim doesn't empower us. In fact, when we play the victim, we give our power away.

Surprises can be great. But they can also feel awful. Especially when you are surprised by something you didn't expect to happen.

303: Being Overly Apologetic

2/14/2023
Are you the kind of person who tends to overly apologize? Over-apologizing is when you say "sorry" when you don't need to. This could be when you didn't do anything wrong, but you take responsibility for it anyway. Like when... The waiter brings you the wrong order and you apologize for the mistake. Or you apologize for bothering the clerk at the store, even though it's their job to assist you. Or maybe while checking out at the supermarket, the cashier's machine breaks, and you turn to the person behind you in line and apologize for taking so long. There may be many reasons why we do this, but the bottom line is, apologizing when there's no need is a problem. Tune in to this week's episode to learn more and how you can practice being unapologetic today!
