Synopsis: Some people can't seem to get ahead in life even when they try to improve relationships or situations. Alan Nelson suggests that their setbacks result from attitudes that affect their behaviors, whether they are aware of it or not. My Own Worst Enemy describes nineteen ways people sabotage their lives. Each chapter provides readers with a definition and the dangers of a "behavitude"--behaviors that stem from attitudes--such as guilt, living in the past, and self-sufficiency. Nelson addresses the "why" behind such behavior and offers solutions readers can use to begin changing their lives. Nelson also provides self-assessment sections for readers to estimate their own involvement in self-defeating behavior and discussion questions for group or individual study. This book is for all readers who want to take an honest look at themselves, make changes, and begin living up to their potential. It also appeals to pastors, counselors, and others who help people on their paths to healing.
From the Back Cover: If your heart's in the right place, why do you keep getting hurt? When you want so much to succeed, why are you often disappointed? Alan Nelson says that you may be your own worst enemy--without even knowing it. "Like the fairy tale suggests, the 'mirror, mirror on the wall' shows us the face of our enemy. . . . . We defeat ourselves far more than we are defeated by external circumstances." --from the foreword by John C. Maxwell As a pastor, Alan Nelson counsels hundreds of people each year, and he sees how people sabotage their own lives, not recognizing the behaviors that defeat them. Instead, they blame others, their past, or their circumstances. Maybe you are doing the same thing. My Own Worst Enemy explores nineteen of the most common "behavitudes,"--behaviors that stem from wrong attitudes--and helps you evaluate your own life to identify and change any self-defeating behaviors. With this book's helpful insight, you can achieve your goals and live the successful life you long for. "Thoughtful application of principles contained in Alan's book will no doubt lead to a more centered life." Robert G. Hunt, president, The Hunt Corporation "Nelson reveals honest and real substance that can change your life. Look at yourself. Discover God. Find healing and success. With this book you can and will." Dr. Robert A. Schuller, Hour of Power
