What is Holding You Back From the Success You Want?
Want to know what is probably holding you back from being as successful as you could be? The answer should be no surprise.
It's YOU.
Yep.
YOU are the one thing that stands in your way to living the life of your dreams.
And, the thing is, you might not even realize why or how you are doing that.
But you must learn to recognize certain behaviors and patterns before you can change them, so let's take a look at some common methods of self-sabotage.
First, think about all the little messages you send to yourself every day.
The ones that play in your head over and over again and say things like, "I'm afraid to do that," or "I'd better not try that, I'd probably fail," or, "nothing I do ever works out the way I want it to.
" Or maybe you recognize another common pattern - you do many of the things necessary to succeed, yet once you do start to make progress you pull back.
You're just too afraid to break out of your comfort zone.
Sound familiar? Here's yet another pattern that can hold you back - you try a few things to get the results you want.
But when they don't work quickly you stop doing them and try something else.
In other words, you don't give yourself enough time to succeed.
Every day you send messages to yourself - and to the world around you - through your thoughts, actions, and feelings.
Those messages are like a self-fulfilling prophecy.
So, is it any wonder you don't live up to your true potential? Stop holding yourself back.
Each time you hear one of those negative messages in your head today, acknowledge it.
Then replace it with a new, positive message that will lead to the future you truly want.
Try it!
