Today we tackle the subject of self-sabotage. We spend time talking about various examples like food choices that make us feel bad later, playing the blame game, negative thought patterns, procrastination, fear of failure, and the need for control. We give real-life examples from the realm of high school athletics, adult life, and also examples as moms.
Our strategies for combatting self-sabotage are:
1) Identify our tendencies
2) Identify our thought patterns
3) Process through it with journaling or talking to a counselor
4) Identify what you really want and then make small changes in that direction
5) Be willing to fail and then fail forward
6) Create accountability to push us forward and encourage us
7) Don’t compare yourself to others
8) Learn to love the process
