Reflection: our internal enemies

Dear readers, human beings sometimes cultivate inside us feelings that I consider harmful to our lives, among them, are resentment, bitterness, envy, fears among others. I mention that we cultivate these feelings because sometimes people prefer to hold on to them, not realizing that they begin to affect mental tranquility and end up being an obstacle in their lives, this because you always see the negative side of things and at times you maintain a defensive attitude with your neighbor without perceiving it.

For example, one of the feelings that reflect insecurity in people is envy, I speak of insecurity because they do not focus on enjoying their own achievements but spend their lives watching what happens with others, but not in an act of admiration for others, but on the contrary they immerse themselves in a state in which they do not tolerate the success of other people, which becomes evident when they start looking for only negative aspects of the other, to be able to spread them or worse, they begin to shout a film full of negative and murky aspects that seems to generate satisfaction and joy.

In the same sense, it is important to mention that today the world is submerged in a high level of consumption, where the material is paramount and we become beings with artificial needs, this being precisely what certain people envy the material like for example the latest model car, the latest generation phone among other material objects, It would be better for envy to focus on wanting to be as honest and disciplined as the other person to achieve the goals you want to achieve.

Another common enemy is rancor, this being an inability to forgive, possibly by pride, but that grudge will surely not let you sleep peacefully and begin to consume all the goodness that exists within you until you become a bitter and distrustful being unable to reflect a kind gesture towards others. There is also another inner enemy known as low self-esteem or low self-esteem, where people underestimate their qualities and abilities, often believed to be inferior to others, This will certainly not allow to achieve the objectives set so there is excellent planning, because that inferiority will feed on your courage and will not be able to take on the challenges enough for fear of doing it badly.

Dear readers, it is important to get rid of these internal enemies, always maintaining a positive and proactive attitude to any situation, do not let yourself be dragged by rumors and keep your criteria with which you have developed, today it is very easy to destroy anyone’s self-esteem through misleading advertisements or some so-called influencers who can make you feel like a failure if you don’t live in luxuries, let’s trust ourselves, respect our strategies with much positivism that in the end with constancy we will achieve what we want.
