The greatest enemy is within us.

On your left, the devil speaks to u, on ur right the angel advises you.
Everyday, theres a battle within urself..
Either u get defeated by ur fears or u overcome urself by conquering ur fears.
Either u managed to CONtrol / resist temptations of say ( e.g smoking? playing computer games , etc etc) , or u allow ur bad habits to take control over u once again today and tell urself maybe u will try harder tomorrow...
well theres always a tomorrow.. but also there may not be a tomorrow... who knows..
Or maybe u finally CONvince or persuade urself that u shall do it NOW! like a finally..to start doing hw.. or revise or say exercise? eg decide to go for a swim, jog, etc.. Suddenly in ur mind, pop out with various excuses/reasons for u to procrastinate again.... then u slowly weight the pros and cons.. while continue to laze around on the bed or infront of the computer.. lol.. then soon feeling too lazy to go.. too much of second thoughts ruins the first.. Perhaps in exams, never change ur answer.. becx ur first instinct may be the most accurate..
How often are we able to triumph over ourselves ?
Sometimes, i really get very tired trying to convince myself.. it takes too much time.. lots of hesitation.. it is a total waste of time.. by the time u tink too much.. the feel is gone lol.. sun already set la lol.. haaaa. Either after much thoughts then in the end still go.. or end up never go..
Well, I do always find different ways to counter myself.. overcome myself.. deal with myself.. is a kind of self delusion method.. or in other words.. different ways to motivate myself.. using achievements? well. When intrinsic doesnt work anymore.. maybe extrinsic comes in...
My advice would be...
Improvements are what we want to see...
But yet hard to see ...
Make it visual...
So that we can see...
eg. number of push ups, write it out to show the trend of an increase.
