Running The Gauntlet To Find The Enemy Within
Running The Gauntlet To Find The Enemy Within
Summary: Find Out if You are Your Own Best Friend or Worst
Enemy
Background: "Get busy living or get busy dying" : that is what life
is about. At every moment, we are choosing either life or death.
We choose life when we honor ourselves by making empowering
choices, by having life affirming emotions, and by seeing ourselves
"positively". When we do not, we are - in essence - choosing death.
By our choices in life, we can be our own best friend or worst
enemy. It begins inside with the beliefs and thoughts we choose.
To make better choices, you need to know where you are right
now. If you are filled with negative thoughts and beliefs, you need
to know that so that you can unlearn them. For only when you
can think and act from a place of love, can you be at peace with
yourself, with others, and with God.

For Scores 819 to 318: Empowerment Range: You are the type
that says "life is fabulous". You only have teeny, tiny, minor
"blemishes" of negativity to clear away to make your wonderful life
even more magnificent.
For Scores 317 to 0: Achievement Range: You are the type that
says "life is good". It is good but it could be better because you
have noticeable "blotches" of negativity you need to eliminate. You
will be able to tell what they are by looking at your results. You
have enough self confidence to weed them out on your own.
For Scores 0 to -585: Existence Range: You are the type that says
"life is OK". It is only adequate because your negative beliefs,
thoughts, and emotions have made it that way. You have several
areas where negativity has taken firm root. You probably need
some help from counselors to overcome these blocks.
For Scores -586 to -1287: Struggle Range: You are the type that
says "life is hard". It is hard because your negative thoughts have
manifested struggle for you everywhere in your life. You definitely
need help from counselors.
For Scores -1288 to -1989: Disempowerment Range: You are the
type that says "life is terrible". You are a virtual prisoner of your
negative beliefs. For you "not feeling bad" would be a step up. You
absolutely need to stop everything you are doing right now, pick
up the phone, and get some counseling help!!!
