Caroline Myss says something on today’s episode that’s worth carrying around in your back pocket for the next month.
There are three words doing more damage to your life than you realize.
Entitled. Blame. Deserve.
She calls them lethal. Not strong language. Not “negative.”
Lethal.
Because here’s the thing about words…
They’re not just sounds you make with your mouth. They’re not even just thoughts. They’re frequencies. They’re the vibration your nervous system runs on all day, every day.
And when those frequencies are hostile, no amount of vision boards or affirmations or meditation tapes will lift you out. Because your vocabulary is dragging you back down faster than your visualization can pull you up.
Caroline put it bluntly: “Your vocabulary is fundamentally hostile.”
Most people read that and think she means cursing. She doesn’t. She means three things specifically.
Entitled. The belief that the world owes you something. Your boss owes you the raise. Your partner owes you the affection. Your kids owe you the respect. The universe owes you a break. As long as that word is running in your head, you’ll spend your life waiting on a debt that’s never going to be paid.
Blame. Every time you blame somebody for where you are, you hand them the controls. You also guarantee that somebody else is doing the same thing to you. Somebody is in therapy right now because they know you. That’s not a knock. That’s just how the math works.
Deserve. Cousin to entitled, but sneakier. Deserve sounds noble. Underneath, it’s the same demand. The universe is supposed to deliver because of who I am, what I’ve done, or what I’ve been through.
Three words. One week. Try pulling them out of your vocabulary and see what happens to your mood, your relationships, your patience, your day.
This day of your life will never come again. Don’t waste it on a vocabulary that was never serving you anyway.
