8 Ways to Stop Sabotaging Yourself
Breaking Free: Overcome Self-Sabotage with These Powerful Strategies for Lasting Success
Last year, in January, I decided to start my coaching business. After a few failed attempts to get clients, I completely stopped trying.
The impostor syndrome possessed me. I thought: ‘Who am I to advise other people?’ ‘What if I cannot help them?’ ‘I’m not ready’ ‘I am not good enough.’
I decided to focus on other things instead of starting to build my coaching business. It took me one year to overcome these thoughts and feelings and stop sabotaging myself.
We all sabotage ourselves from time to time. Some wait until they’re close to success, while others sabotage themselves before taking the first step. The causes are the same regardless of when it occurs.
The world is tough enough without taking on the role of the greatest obstacle you face in life. You’re also the toughest opponent to beat.
Hardly anyone addresses this issue in their own life. You’ll have a huge advantage over everyone you know if you can end this behavior. There’s not much else in your way if you can get out of your own way.
