I had a friend message me yesterday asking for some advice.

In his message, he said, “I know I’m my worst enemy” which got me thinking…

I’m glad he realizes that. But there’s an important message buried in that statement that needs clarification.

Here’s a truth that I’ll recommend you lock into your mind forever…

There is no enemy aside from ourselves.

Holding on to any other belief is the equivalent of committing to living in victimhood.

Consider this:

It’s impossible to be victorious and a victim at the same time. 

You gotta choose one.

For many, this is hard because it’s SO much easier to play the most popular game in the world…

The blame game.

The blame game is the most popular game in the world because it feels better for the ego to blame someone else than to take responsibility for your lack of success.

Hold on because El Mateo here is about to offend the weak-minded who are committed to remaining a victim.

• Republicans: Joe Biden is not the enemy. You are.

• Democrats: Donald Trump is not the enemy. You are.

• Conspiracy Theorists: The Illuminati is not the enemy. You are.

• Socialists: Capitalists are not the enemy. You are.

• Been through a nasty divorce? Your ex is not the enemy. You are.

• Had a former partner steal from you? They are not the enemy. You are.

• Did your parents abuse you as a kid? They are not the enemy. You are.

The ONLY person stopping you from stepping up and living the life you want to live is YOU.

That acceptance of responsibility is what’s called POWER.

You either choose to be powerful or you choose to be weak – you can’t choose both.

If you commit to remaining a victim, you commit to being powerless.

If you commit to total responsibility, you commit to power.

Which will you choose?
