For some examples, see:
After much reading, observation, and reflection I've come to the conclusion that one of the world's biggest problems is victimization. Typical dictionary definition of "victim":
Note that you can be victimized by others and you can also victimize yourself.
"R.T." says: "I'm not worth shit for anything." This is an example of self-victimization. Most likely it's also the surface description of a deep imprint.
Most people (maybe there are no exceptions) have been victimized in multiple ways, and have been negatively affected by the forms of victimization they've suffered. Victimization tends to make people less powerful and more helpless.
Consider the possibility that my heartburn example of victimization is merely a small tip of a giant iceberg -- that massive victimization occurs practically all the time practically everywhere on earth.
In my experience, among people trying to make money online, a high percentage (probably over 95%) use their minds more to harm themselves than to help themselves. R.T. serves as an example. For the 98-99% trying to make money online, who meet with little or no success, victimizing themselves as a result of deep imprints may be a root cause. That certainly seems to apply to "CHM".
You may have been victimized at the time of your conception by inheriting weak or destructive genes from your parents and other ancestors.
You may have been victimized in the womb by injurious actions from your mother (drinking, smoking, taking drugs, poor eating habits, etc.), or by physical attacks against your mother that harmed you.
During birth you may have been hurt by the doctor who delivered you.
As a child, your parents may have subjected you to intellectual, emotional, and/or physical abuse. They may have taught you that they were "authorities who had to be obeyed"; that certain things were "true because they said so" or "everybody knows that." You may have become "addicted to unhappiness". On the TV show My Name is Earl, Earl's father said to Earl: "You always find a way to ruin things." Such a statement can act like a "victimizing curse" and a self-fulfilling prophesy. It can become a Core Identity Belief. The same applies to R.T.'s "I'm not worth shit for anything."
You were probably "forced to go to school" -- "involuntary confinement?" -- "cruel and usual punishment?" The teachers may have taught you a number of "lessons" -- see Are Our Schools Concentration Campuses for Mind Destruction?
According to Alan C. Walter:
"Early academics considered the masses and peasants to be fools and idiots, uncontrollable and highly dangerous if allowed learning of any sort. Generation after generation, these attitudes have been handed down to teachers.The basic teaching viewpoint is, "You don't know, therefore shut up, sit still, keep quiet, and listen."
But don't blame the teachers; after all, they were once pupils.
Spending ten to fifteen years in a submissive pose of, "Shut up, sit still, keep quiet, and listen," definitely will cause the student to form viewpoints of fear: "I'd better not speak up," "I shouldn't have my own point of view," and "I'd better not get involved," these are the types of precepts that set a person up to unknowingly play destructive games."
Did you get bullied and/or do some bullying yourself?
Did you learn any "religious lessons" that may have contributed to you becoming a victim and/or a victimizer?
How have you been victimized in any of your jobs? How have you victimized others at work?
Have you been victimized by police, bureaucrats, soldiers, tax collectors, lawyers, etc?
How about the medical profession and prescription drugs?
Are you overweight or obese? ...Victimizing yourself through poor eating habits?
How else have you been victimized and/or victimized others?

Do we live in a victim culture? Join the debate
By Anthony Browne, Chief Political Correspondent
THE vast majority of people in Britain are officially oppressed, according to a report that claims we have become a "nation* of victims".
The study calculates that 73 per cent of Britons are members of officially recognised "victim groups", including the disabled, women, ethnic minorities and homosexuals. [emphasis added] Each group is given government* support, including protective legislation.
The report, We're (Nearly) All Victims Now, by the socially conservative think- tank Civitas, gives warning that the rise of a "victimocracy" undermines democracy because people are no longer considered equal under law.
"We have become a nation* of victims," it says. "Victimhood today is a political status that is sought after because of the advantages it brings, including preferential treatment in the workplace, the possibility of using police power to silence unwelcome critics, and financial compensation. To be classified as a victim is to be given a special political status, which has no necessary connection with real hardship or oppression."
In October next year the Government* is setting up the Commission for Equality and Human Rights, which merges the disability, race and equal opportunities commissions.
Many people, such as black women, are victims of so-called multiple discrimination. The report uses official figures to strip out the overlapping groups to calculate that nearly three quarters of people belong to one category or other. The biggest oppressed group is women, who constitute 51 per cent of the population and are protected by a range of legislation covering discrimination, equal pay and domestic violence. Ethnic minority men amount to 4 per cent; white disabled men 11 per cent; white male pensioners 5 per cent; and white, gay, able-bodied men, 2 per cent.
The report attacks the increasing tendency to judge crimes as more serious if they are committed against official victims -- so-called hate crimes. Police have been encouraged to give priority to such cases, which the Civitas report says is undermining equality under the law.
It cites the trial this year of the killers of Jody Dobrowski, a barman murdered on Clapham Common, South London, in October last year. Jailing the two men for 28 years, the judge said that the sentence would have been halved if they had not voiced any opposition to the victim's sexuality. "Is animosity to gays a worse motive than, for example, a calculated killing to silence a witness?" it asks.
It also states that claiming official victim status enables groups to silence critics, often using taking offence as a political tactic. The benefits of taking offence are so great in any debate, that it has encouraged the growth of "increasing touchiness" in Britain.
However, the report gives warning that seeking victim status can harm the victims, denying them personal responsibility by always blaming others and undermining their self-respect.
In general, victim mentality can be recognized by the following elements:
"In his book The Path of Least Resistance, Robert Fritz cites an experiment in which three- and four-year old children had tape recorders attached to them, recording everything that was told to them: "After analyzing the tapes, researchers discovered that 85 percent of what children were told was about either what they could not do or how bad they were because of what they were doing." In other words, as children, as much as 85% of what we learned from adults consisted of negative programming. Eighty-five percent! With all those negative, self-defeating programs running in our brains, it's no wonder we feel powerless and unfree!" -- Mark Lindsay (Learned Permission-seeking).
In his book What to Say When You Talk to Your Self, Shad Helmstetter, Ph.D. wrote:
"I'll give you an example of some of the negative programming most of us have received. During the first eighteen years of our lives, if we grew up in fairly average, reasonably positive homes, we were told "No!," or what we could not do, more than 148,000 times! If you were a little more fortunate, you may have been told "No!" only 100,000 times...
Meanwhile, during the same period, the first eighteen years of your life, how often do you suppose you were told what you can do or what you can accomplish in life? A few thousand times? A few hundred? During my speaking engagements to groups across the country, I have had people tell me they could not remember being told what they could accomplish in life more than three or four times!
...Everything and everyone around us, without being aware of it, has been programming us... Year after year, word by word, our life scripts were etched."

It may be worth examining how the various Success Steps covered in this article fit into:
Until you've taken the Quantum Leap to above the Success Threshold, you remain someone who cannot succeed, someone stuck on a path that makes success impossible, typically someone with a Victim Mentality and with a Reactive-Responsive Orientation, typically someone who compulsively and unconsciously plays self-destructive games, typically someone who is dominated in some areas of his/her life by his/her Addictive Beast/Failure Voice. To become Someone Who Can Succeed you need to:
