What to do if you are your own worst enemy?

Being your own worst enemy does not mean that there is someone else within you that’s trying to hurt you. It means that there is a conflict that you are not facing.

Your subconscious mind is projecting this conflict through character traits that are making you struggle. It’s like trying to seal a steaming cooking pot where the boiling water is the conflict, the steam are the negative character traits and you are the one with a steam in your face struggling to close the pot and act normal.
You’ve tried calling yourself ‘stupid’ or an ‘idiot’ and how does that work by now?
Maybe it’s time to use that over analyzing talent and ask yourself ‘why is the water boiling?’
There are 3 steps that will help you resolve this conflict and stop you from being your own worst enemy.
1. Forgive yourself;
Once you forgive yourself and show yourself love you’ll be able to see what has been boiling.
2. Face what you are running away from within yourself;
Face the conflict and realize that it’s most likely an emotion you are trying to run away from.
3. Feel the emotion and let it go;
Acknowledge the emotion. Embrace the emotion. Feel the emotion and let go of it.
And just tell yourself
“I’m ok. I am not perfect. I’m not the worst either. I’m ok, and that’s completely ok.”
Try to talk to yourself as if you were the best friend of a child.
You are not your worst enemy, you just think that most things are more important than your emotions.
