I'm my own worst enemy. I doubt myself... I've verbally beat up people... I drink too much and I get yelled at... I don't nail that job interview... I'm teased... I've started fights... I procrastinate... Eat too much junk food... I'm in self pity and cry myself to sleep... But through it all, I am successful in some things. Are you?

I am not perfect. No one is perfect. But despite all the things that make me imperfect, I know that i have succeeded in making myself a family just as simple as I can yet, provide them a comfortable life.

We're all our own worst enemy, and I can think of a million reasons why I don't like myself at times. But dwelling on those things won't make things better. Focus on the reasons you're successful instead.

If at any time you are in unfavorable condition and no one has come to give a helping hand or at least heard your complaints, if you will feel very sorry for yourself? Basically self-pity is very close to a sense of despair where you no longer have the spirit to continue or you could say you resigned to the fate of you. But there is one thing where when feeling sorry for yourself that departed into something positive. When you are in a condition like that, slowly vanish vanity and ego down. Along with the weakening of the ego, the energy used by your emotions are also getting reduced so that you feel more relaxed than before. It's as if you've just completed a long journey. Although at the time you feel tired, but there is relief that appears to allow you to rest easy. Tranquility is a human quality that is very rare, and therefore very few people after removing the problem (whatever the outcome) could be quieter. Most will be too far, lost in the abyss of despair and disappointment and shattered grief. It's certainly not good. The important thing is to maintain balance. Quiet nature is a symbol of balance. Therefore as a man, you must learn how to put your feelings correctly. Take, for example, there was a man who falls in love with a girl. It is a natural thing. Then he was trying to do many things for the girl he likes. It is also reasonable. At the right moment, he finally expressed his feelings, but unfortunately he was more considered as a brother figure than a lover. It is all still within the limits of reasonableness. However the feeling is not something that can always be created with the intent, because feelings are not always able to follow the flow of logic that is created by the mind. Of course he was upset with the fact that. He had felt himself not good enough, even though the girl kept trying to convince the man was a very nice person she had ever known. In short, he was disappointed in himself. So what happens next? After the rejection, as time went on he began to slowly life with renewed vigor. Disappointment he felt was starting to feel irrelevant, what is wrong if he thinks he is being a big brother figure to the girl? Dissapointment led him to the point where his ego down and after that feeling of disappointment that slowly faded.
