Hello and welcome back to the show.

I am Patrick, I'm here.

As I always am with Ben.

How are you?

I'm doing great. Yeah, doing awesome, Patrick.

It's good to see you.

I'm excited to have this conversation.

We're going to answer a listener question.

Diego sent this to us.

I'm going to read the question because I think it's going to be enough context for us to get

right into it.

This is what he says.

He says, can you please summarize the tools to get rid of the victim mindset?

I am well aware of the mindset continuum about how being a victim is a detriment to every part of life.

The problem is that my natural tendency is to feel like a victim.

Every time there are troubles in my life, my first reaction is to behave like a victim.

And it takes a lot of effort to become aware of it and try to move on.

What are the tools to try to change my nature, trying to behave at least like a pessimist

when something happens.

I wanted to start this conversation.

First of all, thank you, Diego, for the question and honestly for the awareness enough

to be able to ask this question, because I do actually think that that's worth pointing
