The enemy within

                   
       “Our doubts are traitors and make us loose the good we off might win, by fearing to attempt” William Shakespeare.

       Doubt has been our closest enemy, a traitor and a foe and we have not been paying attention to it. According to Wikipedia, “It is a mental state in which the mind remain suspended between two or more contradictory propositions, unable to assent to any”.

        With doubt you are unable to choose between a law or a business school as a career choice, Oxford or Harvard? You are unable to decide which house you would love to live in, where should I invest my limited capital in? Banking or the Housing industry? Should I propose to my girlfriend or not and a whole lot more.
        The human mind is a vast space and can take it a lot of information BUT can process a few seamlessly.
        Why you should stop doubting yourself.
        “Four things be the things I am wiser to know: idleness, sorrow, a friend and a for. Four things be the things I’d been better without: love, curiosity, freckles and doubt. Three things be the things I shall never attain: envy, content and sufficient champagne. Three be the things I shall have till I die: laughter and hope and a sock of the eye” Dorothy Parker.
         You are destined for greatness, don’t you settle for less! The world has just a version of you, why deprive the world of your awesomeness?
           Have you heard about the power of doing one thing? Avoid getting overwhelmed. Focus and do the one thing right! As K.T Witten said “Your dream doesn’t have an expiration date. Take a deep breath and try again.
                 How to stop self doubt.
     “Successful people have fear, successful people have doubts and success people have worries. They just don’t let those feelings stop them”. T.Harv Eker.
     It’s ok to be scared sometimes, to second guess ones self, To err is to humans but no is successful people without failure. People would talk you down, even close relatives but why not be like Derek Jetter when he said I love it when people doubt me, it makes me work harder to prove them wrong.
      How do I stop self doubt? By believing in yourself, in your ability in your awesomeness. Believe in one thing, believe in yourself!

Coronavirus and depression

              "I find hope in the darkest of days and focus in the brightest. I do not judge the universe" Dalai Lama       It is no more a news that a virus is at the verge of putting the world at its feet; the Coronavirus. The world economy crumbles as small businesses fades into thin air, the tycoons are not left unscathed. Doctors and scientists are at their best trying to contain the spread of the virus and to produce Vaccines alike. Businessmen and the rich are getting impoverished and the poor are only trying to get their stomach wall from collapsing. Debt relief and palliatives here and there but, the worlds' market  is closed! As the economy is depressing so are the people depressed!        How do I get back to my business? How do I meet my loan schedules and framework and avoid accumulating interest to Everest high? How do I pay my employees, the employers ask? The employees can get a pay cut but h...

It is all in your head

everything-youu.blogspot.com Nothing is more painful or excruciating than when your brain assumes control over your thoughts, lower your self-esteem, questions your capacities, overwhelms you with desires, or choose to direct your activities. "It resembles the attack of the brainsnatchers," says Ted, a gifted Broadway entertainer whose career was waiting for a considerable length of time in light of his serious stage fright and fears of dismissal.            Running on autopilot is the most unhelpful manner, Ted felt like his "brain just dominated," filling him with self-uncertainty and tension. "It was awful and embarrassing . . . it let me know every one of these things about me that simply weren't accurate. That I was nothing but bad, a secondclass citizen, that I didn't merit anything."           What's more regrettable, those tricky brain messages about Ted were dead off-base.In all actuality Ted is a cultivated entertaine...
