Most of us can only imagine what it would be like to walk among our enemies with someone at our side we called it bodyguards who can commands their immediate respect, and whom they fear but how about enemies of our self confidence, enemies that we don't need strong person to be our bodyguards like usually employed by wealthy and prominent person to protect them. For me such enemies are worry, fear and doubts which I believe is the biggest reason of all the failures in our lives I have these enemies sometimes. Are worries and fears and doubts are your enemies? Or Do you feel an inner feeling of uncertainty?

My enemy today is my inner will to go for run I know I should it clears my head, and makes me feel better about myself, but i just can't bring myself to get up and go for it.

Maybe you need some vitamins or energy boosters or the so called free will my friend. Here's one advice, make sure that you love running though since we base it on your free will, Before you go to sleep, feel th e excitement in your body to go for a run the next day. Based on my experience, sleeping today knowing I'd wake tomorrow hitting the white sand beach near our place is an instant alarm clock for me to wake up in the morning. There's no need for me to force myself because I feel so energized whenever I just think about it. Maybe sometimes, we have to force ourselves into thinking that we love this thing that we have to do.

Hi, fish_pink_zoo. The feeling of not having a place to live of my own. And having to stay back with my in-laws or relatives. This is one of my main uncertainties. I don't want to ever go back down this road again. I want to be able to have my own place without always having to stay with people that I barely know or can get along with really well.

I fear of going into a panic anxiety attack, due to being stressed and depressed. I try my best day to day to manage my fears of the unknown, strange people that acts out as if they are prone to be my enemy for no aparent reason, crimes, and dealing with family drama. today enemies doesn't look great on a scale like this.

Yes I do agree. Sometimes my enemy is myself. I tend to think too much on things. I am happy with my life, but I don't know why the overthinking. Aside from myself, no one and nothing else can bring me down for me to call them enemies. Enemies are what we create. If we think someone/something is our enemy, most probably that thinking will respond as a materialized enemy. Please correct my sentence. hehe

the saying goes"love your enemy as you love yourself".Enemies are not always persons,it can also be yourself.Just for instance me,my enemy is within me.sometimes i want to do things but due to my insecurities i just end up dreaming about it.I realized that i just lack of self confidence and drive to do such things,to soar high and to make things happen.now,I've learned to love myself and believed in what i can do.these two are my weapon of droving my enemy away from me and to start and anew.

I'm a firm believer in what you think and worry about can lead to reality. Enemies like worry, fear and doubts can get worse if they are not managed. Perhaps these worries, fears and doubts are coming from negative people or environments in your life which first need to be reconciled before they go away. I think we'll always have a small amount of worry, fear and doubt about things but if they are managed effectively, it will take away feelings of uncertainty.

When I read the question I thought you are referring to the person as your enemies. But when I read the whole discussion I just realized about those weaknesses that we are trying to overcome and let go about it. I would consider my enemies is my self-inferior, easy to trust and lack of self confidence and lack of self esteem. I dont like it, but am doing my best to get rid of those things but I have not succeeded yet.

I think no one is going to believe me, if i say that i don't have any enemies in this world. I am not lieing, to be frank i do not have any one who i don't like in this earth. Why to have enemies, where life is only meant to enjoy and fun. Creating enemies just waste your precious time of your life. So all i want to say is never have such bad habits, be friendly to all the people. Have fun and enjoy a lot with friend. No time for enemies.
