5 ways you are self-sabotaging without realizing it

5 ways you are self-sabotaging without realizing it

1. You start things but never finish them
2. You set goals and then move the goalpost
3. You procrastinate on things that would actually change your life
4. You leave before you can be left
5. You downplay your own achievements so nobody expects more

Self-sabotage is not stupidity. It is protection. Your brain learned to keep you safe by keeping you small. But you are not in danger anymore. Let yourself arrive.

Number 4 hit me hard. I didn't even realize I was doing that until a therapist pointed it out. Like wow my brain was just trying to 'protect' me from getting hurt but I was literally sabotaging every good thing. Still working on unlearning it but it's wild how automatic it feels even when you know better.
