It happens to the best of us. We have a goal, dream, or task we wish to achieve and were all set, but then...

A cautious feeling followed by a voice inside your head telling you you can't do that.

What's even worse is billions of people go about their day listening to that voice believing they can do something just because they tell themselves they can not.

Sure there are plenty of people in the world who will tell you exactly what you can and can not do, and obviously if you have any will power you won't listen to them one bit.

But 9999 times out of ten thousand our worst enemy, and the person who tells us what we can and can not do is our self. My answer to this problem is, Why should we listen to our self?

When you have a moment of self doubt and you think inside your head that you can't do something just remember; There is no YOU!! You are speaking to yourself, and there is no separation here. There is also no I as in I can't do that.

Self doubt in my opinion is an age old instinct used by our ancestors in order to ensure their survival by taking less chances, less gambling with lives, and sticking near a hunting ground, food source, or any other resource which they depended on survival.

In those times this instinct might have served them well in a very unforgiving world where starvation, illness, and waring tribes were a real problem. In todays modern world we do not have to fear about these old problems that humanity have already over come, so my advice is.

Throw Self Doubt Out The Window!
and not only throw it out the window mentally, I mean literally throw it out the window. Go find a piece of paper and write down the words (
My Self Doubt ) Replace My with your name if you want.

Now crumble it up, and throw it out the window. You see, you don't need it? Other good ideas is to throw it into the fire place, flush it down the toilet, do what ever you need to do to take control over your own self doubt because.

In today's world risks and gambles are worth taking!
We have never lived in a better time to take smart calculated hard working risks which can logically pay off if we word hard enough at them. We know in the back of our mind we probably won't starve to death if for some unforeseen way we don't achieve our goals.

The only one stopping you from accomplishing your goals and achieving success is you. Other people may tell you you can't do it, but you are the only person who you will truly listen to.

You have no one else to blame for your failure if you didn't try. It's not that you listened to all those people who told you that you couldn't do something, oh no!.

The person you listened to was you, and your own self doubt.

So acknowledge it, write it down, take control over it, throw it out the window, and do what ever you have to do in order to take control over your own self. Start being that person who tells them selves you can do something, instead of listing to your own self doubt.
