"You are your biggest enemy"

When it comes down to your success, to the decisions you make, to your life in general; you are indeed your biggest enemy. Nothing is holding you back more than yourself and your inner fears and tendency to procrastinate; whatever it is that may be keeping you from accomplishing something positive. You have to have the right kind of mindset in order to be successful. Success is ultimate happiness with oneself, although it is not selfish because you may feel good as a person when you help other people and just make a change for the better in the world around you. You can't hold yourself back; if you're not moving forward, you need to push yourself forward. Other people can offer support and help, but ultimately it's up to you to make a positive difference in your life. You need to start off by finding motivation in the world around you, something that pushes you forward; something that is worth fighting for. People rarely change for themselves, they do it for the ones the love; they do it to make them proud. When you ask someone why they're working towards something life changing, perhaps a financial goal, their "why" is mostly always a loved one. This is our passion, this is what gets our drive going. This is why the importance of loved ones, whether familial or romantic, is so grand. It is the main purpose for our struggle, because we want to succeed for them, we want to be worth something in someone else's eyes because when we're dead and gone the impact that we had on other people is what will live on. So cherish and value your loved ones, they are your absolute; they are your reason for giving it your 100% every damn day you wake up; they are the reason you continue to push forward no matter how tough times get.. And remember, no one can stand in your way, no one else can decide your future; you are in control. Steer yourself in the right direction. And to do so you must educate and inform yourself. Be smart, be efficient. Rise above. You can do it. Whatever you put your mind to, you can achieve. And remember: it is up to you to make it work. So instead of being your biggest enemy, be your biggest cheerleader and root yourself on as you continue to push past all of the obstacles life throws at you. And be prepared for the trials and tribulations; the hardships you will encounter, unfortunately they are a part of life. Success and happiness will come your way, as long as you never give up. Listen: You must never ever give up! Especially not on something you love.
