The 6 Emotional Attackers Inside Your Mind

My mentor Jim Rohn said it best…

Don’t become a victim of yourself. Forget about the thief waiting in

the alley—what about the thief in your mind?

Jim Rohn

Are you aware with the fact that the outcomes of our lives

100% depends with how we deal with our inner-lives or what

we all call, our minds? Believe it or not but our minds are more

powerful than we believe it to be. It’s not what happens

outside of our lives which control our destinies and the paths

we choose. It’s what happens inside of us…our minds because

it’s our minds which makes decisions and controls how we

react, not the outside world.

Page 2: The 6 emotional attackers inside your mind

If we’re not careful, if we’re not feeding our mind with the right

things, slowly but surely, our lives will start a massive downfall.

The quality of thoughts that we entertain on a daily basis

affects how we look and react to things. A powerful

thought/philosophy that I love to live by is…

What you feed your stomach to nourish your body is as critical as

what you feed your mind.

The reason why I believe in this is because there is a huge

difference in our bodies if all we do is feed it trash compared

to feeding it healthy food. If all we eat is junk 24/7, then the

quality of our lives drop. We feel weak, sluggish, bloated and

we don’t have the energy to really get anything done. Based

from my experience, when I eat healthy, I’m driven, focused

and extremely active with a heck of a lot of energy. The same

thing applies with our minds. If all we feed it is crap we get

from the news, then we produce crappy thoughts. However, if

we’re focused on absorbing empowering and inspirational

information, we have the opportunity to grow and see life

from a different perspective. If we listen to sad and depressed

people all day, then we will be depressed as well even if there

is no reason at all. If we listen to happy people, then it will rub

off to us and we will be happy as well. [Related Blog Post: 15

There Are 6 Emotional Attackers Inside Your Mind…

1.) Fear

Fear can literally cripple us. It can turn

a super-talented basketball player into the worst player on the

court. Fear isn’t actually real at all. It’s just a bunch of crap that

we tend to play in our minds. You know how I know? Fear is

actually an acronym. It stands for Fantasized Experiences

Appearing Real a.k.a. fear. Most of the time, the reason why we

tend to fear something is because of a past experience

whether it’s something someone told us or experienced

firsthand. There is a boundary on what to be fear and what

not to fear. I certainly wouldn’t walk the street 4 in the

morning alone.

Fear becomes intensely powerful once we allow it to

overthrow our own minds and lose control. Remember, the

superhero and the coward both feel the exact same fear when

faced with trouble. The only difference, the hero stands up

and faces it when needed to while the coward looks for the

nearest bush or hole to hide in. Stand up…face your fears and

feel the adrenaline and excitement as you get to see a whole

new different part of life that you’ve never experienced before.

Page 4: The 6 emotional attackers inside your mind

Here’s a good take shared by Adam Sicinski on the iqmatrix

blog.

Our fears are debilitating things that rob us of our energy, our

dreams and our opportunity for redemption. They are very much

like rubber bands flinging us back and forth into our comfort

zones the moment we try and expand the possibilities.

Our fears are indeed horrible figments of our imaginations, much

like dreams — seemingly real, yet completely fictional occurrences

taking shape within the recesses of our minds.

Our fears are not simply isolated events that have no impact on

our current reality and future circumstances. In fact, they may

indeed have a significantly larger and more influential impact on

our lives then we give them credit for. – www.blog.iqmatrix.com/

2.) Indifference

When you say, let it be or leave it alone or

I’ll deal with it tomorrow and you forget, you’re drifting. A

drifter has no set destination or goals in life. Some do, but

never take the necessary action to make it a reality. They just

waste all their energy and time chilling and relaxing. These are

people who are simply lost. Next thing you know, you look in

the mirror, you’ve got gray hair with a face full of wrinkles and

guess what…no smile. That’s the saddest thing ever. A man

Page 5: The 6 emotional attackers inside your mind

who had a full life but decided NOT to live it to the fullest

because of all the excuses made. Well guess what, whatever

happens in your life, you’re the only one to blame. You’ve

made the decision and you’ve got the effect.

Set a goal…an outcome and write it down. Take massive

action. Challenge yourself. Don’t ever be a drifter because the

drifter’s mind is a mind that was successfully conquered by the

enemy. This is what you call hell on earth. Why? Time is

wasted. Energy is wasted. Opportunities and dreams…stolen.

Become a man with a mission that’s actually following through

no matter what. Let those enemies feel your presence. Not the

other way around.

3.) Indecision

This is the thief. It steals dreams, goals

and opportunities from people. It turns a man with talent into

an “Average Joe”. After people make a decision, they are

instantly aligned with an outcome. The problem comes when

people don’t make a decision and when they can’t decide

which then leads to them not making a decision at all. Always

remember and keep in mind that everything beautiful in life is

ALWAYS at the other side of a big and bold decision.

Page 6: The 6 emotional attackers inside your mind

If you want to be successful, you need to be an expert at

calling the shots. Why? Because you’re in charge of your life.

No one else should dictate what you should do. They can give

and share their opinions but it’s totally up to you if you decide

to follow through with that. The choice is yours. Don’t ever let

your current circumstances dictate the decisions you make. If

you know something is best for you, then make the decision.

Put your intentions out into the universe and make it happen.

If it doesn’t work, well guess what, you now know what doesn’t

work. Keep taking action until it does work. We never fail…we

only learn.

4. Doubt

We doubt our friends, our family, the government,

our environment and worst of all…ourselves. We can’t let

doubt destroy our chances to experience an amazing and

awesome life. When an opportunity presents itself, doubt can

lead to us saying no because we’re all busy doubting

everything. We can’t and should never let doubt take over our

lives. Remember, it’s our life. We’re in control here. That’s the

way it should be, not the other way around. Instead of

doubting, believe. Believe in your friends, believe in your

family and most importantly, believe in yourself. Because

Page 7: The 6 emotional attackers inside your mind

when it comes to making your dreams a reality, it’s all about

believing in yourself…who you are and what you’re capable of

doing.

Focus on growing daily. Become a positive person. Master a

skill and that’s when you’ll remove self-doubt. Be a go-getter.

Chase after things instead of constantly doubting the

outcome. Whatever the outcome, good or bad, deal with it.

That’s part of the process of becoming a successful leader.

You’re in charge. Lead your life into your own understanding

of greatness. Don’t ever doubt yourself. Instead, believe in

yourself even when the odds seem off. That way, you can say

that you gave it your all. Because when you give it your all, you

know you’ve done your best. The best thing to do is learn and

move on. You’ll be surprised what you’re capable of when you

believe and take action. So just do it.

Page 8: The 6 emotional attackers inside your mind

5.) Worry

I don’t like the word “worry”. I

never have. Instead, I use the word “concern” which has a

more positive effect to our subconscious mind. I used to be a

worrier to the point it would take over my body…take over my

life. It NEVER did me any good. The funny thing…the things I

worried about never even happened. It wasn’t even close to

what I was worrying about. It just made me feel like a huge

doofus wasting my time panicking and pacing myself here and

there.

Instead of worrying, be confident in yourself. There’s no need

to worry about the test you’re about to take if you know you’ve

done your all studying for it. True story and hilarious. LOL I

worried the night before taking my driver’s license test. I

barely got any sleep. What happened? I passed. So what was

all that worrying for…nothing!

If you’ve committed to something and said yes, then stop

mentally trying to escape or change the scenario. Just go with

the flow. Stop worrying or thinking why you shouldn’t do it.

Whatever the result is what you get. You live and learn.

Instead of worrying, be confident and believe. Those 2 always

come in handy.

Page 9: The 6 emotional attackers inside your mind

Here’s a good thought by Evelyn Lim

from www.AbundanceTapestry.com, a guest blog post for

tinybuddha.com

The mind likes to anchor itself to the known, which creates

anxiety. Worry is a symptom of the deeper-rooted fear you

experience when you have to tread into the unknown.

You prefer things to be predictable. You fear that any unexpected

turn in events would throw your meticulous planning into

disarray. The more energy you give to your fears, the more

anxious you become.

In reality, all forms of worry represent an underlying lack of trust.

You are unable to trust in the goodness of life. Even though things

could turn out in a number of ways, you have a tendency to

believe that things are going to turn out negative rather than

positive.

Worry displaces. You become ungrounded. With your mind

constantly in the future, it is difficult to be present. You lose the

capacity to experience life in the here and now. With worry, you

deny yourself the opportunity of living your moments in freedom.

Worrying causes you to leak energy. You feel low. You are more

apt to complain about things and compare yourself with others,

and you’re less likely to be rational. Excessive worrying can cause

you to stifle your dreams.

Your relationships with others get affected, too. No one likes being

near a prophet of doom and gloom. – www.tinybuddha.com/

6.) Timidity

Being timid is an illness. If we’re too careful we’ll

never achieve anything great. We’ll always be living in the

shadows. It’s like we’re allowing life and everyone in it to

constantly kick us in the groin just like that picture in the right.

In life, we need to take risks…calculated risks. This is how

success is created. I took a risk when I decided to follow my

heart…my passions…my dreams when I decided to skip college

and become an entrepreneur instead. I can tell you now, I’d

rather be working as an online entrepreneur full time than to

be stuck in a freakin’ cubicle looking at pictures of cats all day.

Being timid means that we’re stuck in our comfort zones. We

have no intention or chance to grow. Well everything beautiful

in life is ALWAYS outside our comfort zones. Have you ever

done something you’re not comfortable with and succeeded at

it? It’s the best damn feeling in the world. We never get

anything good from being too timid. We need to take

calculated risks every now and then. That’s what gives life it’s

color and excitement.

Who said you can’t live your dreams and make them a reality?

Don’t listen to those people. Listen to yourself…to your

heart…to your mind…to your soul. Do what you believe will

YOLO”. Make it count!
