Feeling this one today. We are our own worst enemies at times. Thoughts?
there be no monsters
save those we gestate within
our demons inside

I Write Her 
We have limitless opportunities and then we try to sabotage ourselves before we even put a toe in the water. When I say “we” I refer to that constant voice in our heads that is our ego. The one that is always telling us we are not good enough. It is very difficult to change those demons but we can if we persevere. 🙄

You are so right, Carolyn! Our goals should always be to rise above the self-fed negativity.

Yes insightful look.
Brings to mind this quote:
But the worst enemy you can meet will always be yourself; you lie in wait for yourself in caverns and forests. Lonely one, you are going the way to yourself! And your way goes past yourself, and past your seven devils! You will be a heretic to yourself and witch and soothsayer and fool and doubter and unholy one and villain. You must be ready to burn yourself in your own flame: how could you become new, if you had not first become ashes?
Friedrich Nietzsche
