Change Addictions into Preferences. Victims have to achieve a desired goal or dream in order to feel good. Like addicts, they allow for no other options. If they get exactly what they want, they are happy for the moment. If they don't get what they want, they are miserable.
Creators have a healthier outlook.
A Victim says, I have to have a date for New Year's Eve. A Creator says, I'd prefer to have a date for New Year's Eve. A Victim says, I should have lost ten pounds last month. A Creator says, It would have been nice if I had lost ten pounds last month. These Creators are just as committed to their goals as are the Victims, but the Creators are far less addicted to a particular outcome.
