examples of self sabotage and how to stop

❌ you know what you need to get done but you don’t do it

➡️ you’re afraid that when you actually do the work, you’ll fail

⬇️ how to stop this ⬇️

the more often that you prove to yourself that you are capable of doing things, the easier doing them will be. the more often you fail and realize the world won’t end, the easier failure will be. so, make promises to yourself and follow through with them. start with small things and build from there

❌ you set your standards so high that you never reach them

➡️ then when you don’t achieve your goals it's your high standards fault, not your abilities

⬇️ how to stop this ⬇️

keep your standards high but focus more on the next right thing. allow yourself to celebrate the small wins along the ways and learn to see failure as a learning experience.

❌you stay so busy that you never stop and ask yourself why you are doing what you do

➡️ you can blame your failures on lack of time instead of on yourself

⬇️ how to stop this ⬇️

start prioritizing the things that really matter. take 30 minutes each week to write out your to-do list for the week. stick to those priorities. and don’t let planning become just another form of busyness.

❌ you allow people who put you down to stay in your life

➡️ you believe you don’t have worth and find people who support that belief

⬇️ how to stop this ⬇️

you are worth having friends that lift you up and think you are awesome. make note of every time someone puts you down. if you see a pattern of this, find new friends! and stop talking to yourself like those bad friends do!
