My Creators: My Mother Or Victim

A strong family life, faith, and ambition characterize my development. A lot of who I am now can be attributed to the manner in which my parents raised me. I grew up in a devout Mormon household, so from a young age my parents instilled values of love, honesty, and kindness.

From working several jobs at a time to make sure I had everything I needed, she became the reason why I was raised the way I raised. The lesson that “ I should treat everyone like the most important person in the world because I will never know when I might need them” was engraved in my head was owned by my mother. Sometimes she would tell me that she had holes in her socks and I knew it was due to most of her money going towards my private school tuition in order for me to be able to have the best education I could get. My mother is my background, my identity, interest, and talent. She is truly the one that has set me up for success, regardless of how fatigued or overworked she is. She is the person who truly defines who I am and who I have become to this

After learning about the ways that a Creator thinks and approaches tasks I think that I can apply certain aspects of this mindset in my own life. One important place I can apply this is in regards to the way I approach my assignments from school or work. A Creator always finds solutions to problems that they may

My parents raised me, their names are Mari and Martin Carrillo, I also have one older his name is Joshua Carrillo. My parents are the reason I am who I am today, They sacrificed so much for me and for my brother, my dad would work all day every day and he would get out of work pretty late. My mom would work during the day and get out at 4 and pick up me and my brother, take us home feed us and then go back to work for another 2 hours and be home by 6. They've always gave up and sacrificed so much for me and my brother to make sure we had food on the table and everything we needed for school and at home.

This can lead someone to make necessary changes to improve their lives, but can also make people have resentment, anger and blame others (becomes a downward spiral).

Some people will use a negative part of their life, and do their best to make it into a way to benefit their life. For example, a youtube sensation has gone viral for a vlog he made when he went to Japan and made a joke about a body he discovered in the Suicide Forest. He gained so many followers and subscribers after this incident

Being a creator is a more positive outlook then being a victim. Some people would rather be a victim but most people would prefer to be a creator. More doors of opportunity open for a person that

We all brother and sisters pray to our great parents for made us educated and found suck big position among society and families but it is because of my mom ideas and decisions and my dad huge support.

When I think of the creator verses victim dilemma, I think which one I want to be. Do I want to prosper and advance, or do I want to decline and linger? A creator is a person who thinks of different ways to be prosperous in life, or even in something as minuscule as a project. A creator looks for extra avenues to make sure the job gets done successfully, and as accurately as possible. When creators fail, they determine what could have been done better, and how can they help themselves, or their group succeed. Creators set life goals because they are able to embrace change including the acceptance of responsibility for failure along the way. A victim is a person who blames others to get out of situations and seeks out a scapegoat instead of

For example, my parents have instilled in me a strong work ethic and a willingness to make sacrifices for others. My mother has a job in sales for a large software company, and my father is employed as a mechanical engineer for a small company that makes outdoor displays. My father works long hours on challenging projects; he leaves for work every day at five in the morning and comes home late in the evening. My mother travels frequently and has a busy schedule, yet seems to always find the time to get me to practices, meetings and doctor’s appointments. She has a knack for juggling it all. They are motivated by their desire to provide me with a better life than they had growing up.

Alison Bechdel’s memoir, Are You My Mother?: A Comic Drama, focuses on Alison and her relationship with her mother. Her relationship with her mother affects the way she relates to people, especially her mother. Bechdel begins this portrayal of Alison’s relationship with her mother on the cover of the book. The red, wood-like background of the cover of the book, is behind all of the other objects. This background is most likely a desk or table of some sort with several objects sitting on top of it. Firstly, I notice the mirror. Mirrors are typically seen as a symbol of self-indulgence and vainness. The mirror is golden and the title of the book, Are You My Mother? is placed in the mirror itself. Secondly, I see the red beaded necklace. The beads are not completely on the book cover. Beads, jewelry, and the color red are often seen as signs of affluence and richness. Next, I see the black and white picture. What appears to be two females are present in the picture. One is older than the other. The woman in the picture looks like she is sitting and appears to be smoking and reading some sort of book, magazine, or newspaper. There is a girl off to the left side of the woman in the picture, clasping her hands, smiling, and watching the woman from a distance. Finally, I notice the lipstick on the cover. The lipstick is in a white container with a gold band. I can clearly see that it is a red shade of lipstick. Again, red lipstick is usually seen worn on someone of importance.

While reading about practicing Creator language I learned that I tend to use Victim Language often. I think I use Victim Language because its easier than being a Creator. Being a Victim allows me to blame on others. Convincing myself into thinking nothing is my fault, and there is no fixing my problem. Being a Creator I take responsibility and have to admit my wrongs. Doing what ever necessary to fix it. I'm not always playing the Victim because I do "man up" and admit when I'm in the wrong. However,I need to become articulate in Creator Language. Being articulate in Creator Language is the best way I am going to able to handle life. My goal is to take action against the issues I want to fix and stop being the victim. To accomplish this goal

My parents as well as my extended family have been crucial in providing the foundation for my beliefs, attitudes and values. I grew up

Third, my parents’ parenting style influenced strongly what I am now. They had democratic parenting style. Therefore, I could discuss with my parents even something which they did not want me to do. Also, they set some reasonable rules which I should follow, and whenever they made rules they explained me why they made such rules. They advised me when I was depressed; however, they have never forced me what to do. Throughout my experience with my parents, I could understand the importance of independence and taking responsibility of my choice. Also, because they did not force their opinions, I could develop my own identity without many conflicts.

It is easy to say that a parent has had the most influence on your life, they taught you how to walk, talk, drink and among many other things hopefully right from wrong. A good parent is there for you most of your life, quick to lend a hand or offer advice (unless it’s your mother-in-law) when needed, but the trait that impacted my life the most was the integrity my father exhibited with me and the people lucky enough to have met him.
