Dear Reader,

Thank you for posting your query with us. When it comes to the idea of becoming our own enemy, it is really very essential to make sure that you understand the fact that this is not something that you will not be able to change. People tend to be stuck at the fact that once they have done something wrong they are not going to be able to improve it, once they have not done the right thing and have failed at something they tend to think they can never make correct decisions for themselves.


The idea of being our own enemy is all about the fact that we tend to have these mental blocks and attitude problems because of which we stop our self from doing the best in all that we can. When our lack of self-confidence and the ability to be disciplined makes it impossible for us to achieve all those things that we can, we tend to become our own enemy. When we have opportunities to grow, and we get in our own way of success and self-growth we are being our own enemy. The concept of being our own enemy is all about the fact that you cannot make the best decision for yourself, you are aware of the best step for you, but you are not taking the correct step. When you are not able to exhibit courage because you cannot efficiently deal with your fears and your insecurities, when you are not able to deal with your now because you are stuck in the past, you are being your own enemy.


The only reason we become our own enemy is that we fail to use our inner willpower to make sure that we are going to be able to overcome all the obstacles in our lives and make the best of the opportunities that we are having in the now. It is just the inability to push our self a little more than the limits that we are so used to. When we are not able to improve our lives because we are stuck in our comfort zone, we are our own enemy. When it is impossible for us to make sure that we compel our self to do the right thing because we are lazy and choose to be weak, we act like our own enemy.


Please understand that all of the above are caused by the way we all choose to think and feel regarding our self, our life and what we can accomplish. If all of this is just an extension of our thoughts, then we are always open to changing the reality. All you will need to do is to change the way you tend to think, and you will be able to make use that you have stopped acting like your own enemy and have started doing all those things that will make it possible for you to make better decisions for your growth in life.

We hope this is going to clarify your query. Please let us know your opinion.

Thanking you,

A person becomes his/her own enemy as they don’t realize their own value. Your own success is depending on yourself that how much you believe in yourself. People become their own enemy as they don’t realize their worth and don’t love themselves enough. Everyone has heard this phrase that “No one is perfect” which is absolutely true. However, I don’t think people really practice that in their lives as everyone is in a race to become perfect. If you will try to race in something that is not emerging as your own personality, you will always leg behind. You really need to know that everyone is special and have a different individuality and personality of their own. Believe in yourself and never lose your own self respect just to become someone you are definitely not. Embrace yourself first of all, cheers!

Failures in life can be really challenging and demeaning. Often, one learns it the hard way and blames oneself for the shortcomings. However, is that really how it is? Recently, I witnessed a mishap in my life and blamed myself for it solely. But I did not realize was that by claiming the blame, I made it worse for myself. I became my own enemy. I started to adopt things that caused harm to myself and it was intentional such as to compensate for the wrong I did in the past. That’s wasn’t really helping me as an individual. I realized it later that it is important to not be your own enemy and love yourself in order to prosper in life. That’s exactly what I did to rectify my mistake.

I realized it with time that had I not grown to become an enemy of myself in the past, I would not have lost the amount of time I did in making the blunders and not collecting my life together. It was then I learned that I had become my own enemy in such a manner that I did deeds that caused harm and disappointment to myself. This is how it is. Regret is one of the major reasons why one becomes an enemy of themselves and does things that are not healthy. Thus, I would suggest that if you are holding onto something that is not healthy for you, its time you let it go and begin to trust yourself again. Only then, you will succeed in life!

you
very nice
