Overcoming the Self-Destructive Man

I have no doubt that most of the failures people experience in life are self-inflicted as opposed to the notion that they are as result of external people and circumstances not caring enough or not being fair enough to give others chance to become successful or excellent.

Looking back at my own personal story, I cannot be more sincere to my self than to accept that I have had to stop my own success more than anyone else has tried to. If you can be sincere, that may likely be your story as well.

To stop this circle that produces a self-destruct person, we need to know what are the strings that lead to becoming a self-destruct man. Some of these strings that quickly come to mind are as follows:

Negative self esteem or belief
When we have a low belief of our self or have a negative perspective to who we are, we are quietly building a self-destruct personality which ends up truncating our potential for success.

Living the common life within vast opportunities (lacking vision and purpose)
When we know even have a good self-esteem for our self and yet fail to live life from that angle, and rather resort to a common life, lacking vision and purpose, that is tantamount to a self-destruct man.

Not giving to one’s self in terms of self development
When we fail to take advantage of the vast opportunity to horn our skills and improve on them so we could access better chances of becoming successful, we are living a self-destruct life. We are are not willing to make sacrifices for self-development for the sake of attaining a better life of significance, then nothing about such life is self-constructive.

Living in fear within a time of enormous reasons to be courageous
There is nothing that can destroy self faster than fear. However, in a time when we have enormous reasons to be courageous, we still find it is difficult to live such life. I sometimes feel that fear is the worst of all the reasons why many become self-destructive. To overcome that, we have to live courageously, and that, daily.

So, my friend, if you find any of these in your life, it is possible you have been living a self-destruct life. To become self-constructive, just consciously reverse all of the above.
