hello,

Build your life by design

Let's get started

Take what you know, earn more and live with purpose. 

I am an writer, speaker, trainer and founder. As a former tech leader & IT teacher turned entrepreneur, I now teach online business, strategy, mindset and financial freedom.

[EP78] If you are doing all the right strategies and it’s still not working out then the chances are something in your sub conscious is stopping you.

I know I have at some point done all of these. So it was about time we dug into why we self sabotage and how you can take yourself to the next level.

Are you doing any of these common Self Sabotaging actions?

If you are doing any of these things then you could be subconsciously self sabotaging your success.

  • procrastination
  • perfectionism
  • compulsive spending

In fact this is all about having a success comfort zone determined by a “temperature gauge.”

I also examine the importance of tackling limiting beliefs, practicing self-love, addressing the fear of success or loss, and changing habits to achieve personal growth. 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Recognise traits like imposter syndrome, procrastination, perfectionism, bad habits, and compulsive spending as forms of self-sabotage.

Use questions to reframe limiting beliefs by questioning their truth, absolute certainty, impact on reactions, and envisioning oneself without those beliefs.

Build mental strength and resilience by fostering self-love, empowering oneself with positive affirmations, and setting boundaries to prevent disempowering behaviours.

Overcome the fear of success by acknowledging and managing how changes in oneself may affect relationships and how others perceive those changes.

Develop small, easy-to-implement habits aligned with personal values, celebrate small wins, and gradually increase goals to shift out of the comfort zone and combat self-sabotage.

BEST MOMENTS

“It’s like the time that I have referrals coming at me for my business and I didn’t follow them up.”

“Procrastination is a form of self-sabotage.”

“When you do the work on you, when you feel better, it rubs off on people around you.”

High Performance, Focus, Lifestyle Design, Business and Mindset.
