Our doubts are traitors,
And makes us lose the good we
oft might win,
By fearing to attempt.
-William Shakespeare
It’s hard to fight an enemy who has outposts in your head. – Sally Kempton
Miserable people put themselves down. If you extend a hand to them, they return a backhand. If you pay them a compliment, they give you a refund! They have a, “no, I’m not” for every “yes, you are.” It’s exhausting to be around them. Every time they put themselves down, you try to life them up, and the weight becomes too much to bear! Their attitude is not humility, it’s humiliating. Happy people know their shortcomings, but they don’t sell themselves short. They believe their souls are precious, and when the world weights them down, they let God lift them up.
