Mindsets I didn’t always have, but I have now. - I am responsible for everything that has ever or will ever happen to me. - No one is coming to save me, I have to save myself. - No one is better or more capable than I am. - I am capable of anything others are capable of.

You aren't responsible for everything that will happen to you, only how you react to the things that happen.
Absolutely. We have 5 kids. Made them read Atlas Shrugged. GREAT lessons. DRILLED in their head. If you get rear-ended in a car, who's fault is it? Kid: Mine. Always mine. Guess how many times they have been rear ended? When you are AWARE of your world, good things happen to you others say is luck. When you don't understand your world, bad things happen to you that are confusing and leave you wondering why. THINK. About EVERYTHING. Question Everything.

"I am the master of my fate / I am the captain of my soul."
"I am responsible for everything that has ever or will ever happen to me." This is false. It's awesome to take responsibility but you don't have to go so far that you actually live by false principles.
I don’t view this as a false principle. Almost every time something bad has happened to me I can usually trace it back to my own behavior somewhere down the line. Even if many steps removed.
Even if there are select cases where bad outcomes are 100% out of your control, it’s far better to live constantly holding yourself accountable rather than blaming others or “the universe” for your situation in life.

I agree with the intent behind these mindsets, but: I am only responsible for my perception and response to anything I am aware has occurred. I am capable to perceive and respond to anything I am aware of, using all means I perceive I can access. Same as anyone else, but often with far different outcomes.
