4 #selfsabotage patterns

When we self-sabotage.

I had a fabulous day talking about one of my favourite topics: imposter syndrome but also how we can self sabotage our goals dreams and desires.

Whether that’s not believing in yourself. Procrastinating. Or giving up too soon just as you were about to make a breakthrough.

We looked at four main fears which keep us stuck when it comes to personal development and growth:

1. Fear of failure
2. Fear of rejection
3. Fear of insecurity
4. Fear of conflict

Fear’s positive intention is to keep us safe. However, what it does do is keep us exactly where we are.

So what’s the solution?

1. To have an awareness of how you are self sabotaging your goals.
2. To challenge those limiting beliefs.
3. To be the captain of your thoughts: stop those that you don’t want or reframe them.
4. To break down large goals into bite-size tasks. This makes it less scary.
5. Take action & do the first task. Get off the starting blocks.
6. Get an accountability buddy. Studies show that goal attainment increases to 95%. #conflict #failure #impostersyndrome #insecurity #rejection
