Identify and Overcome Self-Sabotage Patterns

What is self-sabotage

“Behavior is said to be self-sabotaging when it creates problems and interferes with long-standing goals. The most common self-sabotaging behaviors are procrastination, self-medication with drugs or alcohol, comfort eating, and forms of self-injury such as cutting. These acts may seem helpful in the moment, but ultimately undermine us, especially when we engage in them repeatedly.” – Psychology Today

“The only thing standing between you and your goals is the bullshit story you keep telling yourself as to why you can’t achieve it.” – Jordan Belfort
