RE: Steemians: Are You Empowered or Entitled?

Apparently you didn't take the time to carefully read the beginning, you saw what you wanted to see.

Also, anyone who actually takes the time to observe my thoughts over time and follows my writing knows I'm the last person to think in black and white, and that I of all people know of the greys.

And as far as different approaches in a certain mindset, sometimes there are two different distinct approaches that are necessarily opposed. For example, I can't both be pro-slavery AND anti-slavery, if I think slavery is wrong then I think it is wrong.

In this sense, I'm discussing that you either have a mindset of taking responsibility, or you have the mindset of someone who believes they are caught in the wind of circumstance. Some people actually have MOSTLY one of these mindsets, while in certain areas of life the other mindset will show itself. Some people feel empowered and responsible for their lives part of the time, sure, and then other times they blame everything on something else and fall into victimhood.

For the purpose of conversation, I'm talking about 2 mindsets, not black and white people. But if you understand the use of logic and philosophical speaking, you understand that has nothing to do with avoiding the greys of life. For the purpose of this article I'm talking about two mindsets, I'm not saying "this is all there is in life" and anyone who is paying attention to my writing knows that.
