Self Pity is Our Enemy

Motivational Power Quote

Self Pity is Our Enemy

“Self pity is our worst enemy,

and if we yield to it,

we can never do

anything good in the world.”

Helen Keller, blind and deaf educator

As I see it. . . . . . . .


Self pity is our enemy


Self pity becomes a trap of the mind that moves us into the dark world of negative thinking, negative action and negative results.


If we yield to self pity we become involved in a endless downward spiral. This spiral can throw our lives into a tailspin where things get out of control and make it seem as if there is no way out.


When we become involved in challenging situations never yield to self pity.


We have to resist self pity with all of our strength we maintain positive thinking about the condition and stay focused on solutions, not self pity.


Self pity is our enemy, positive thinking and focused efforts are our friend.
