Learned Helplessness

We all have patterns in our lives. Some of those patterns no longer work. The root cause it came from no longer exists. But we continue to live in that pattern.

Think about this.

Consider someone who keeps choosing the same kind of partner. Or someone who still lives by rules of a strict parent. Or someone who hides from the world because of past life experiences.

These are not weaknesses. They are learned patterns.

Your mind created them when the real world could not be escaped. Now your world has changed but the pattern has remained.

Recognising your world has changed and the pattern still exists is important. That recognition is the key to empower you to change it.

Look inward and understand your own patterns. What things have been repeating in your life?

Your helplessness was a learned behaviour. What was learned can be unlearned.

Your invitation today is a gentle one.

What things in your life do you believe you are powerless to change?
