🔥 Let’s Talk: How Does Self-Sabotage Show Up in Your Life?
I’ve got a vulnerable question for you today…How do you self-sabotage?
Sometimes it’s loud. Sometimes it’s sneaky. But it’s always rooted in something deeper than just laziness or lack of discipline.
Here are some common ways self-sabotage hides in plain sight:
👉 Getting “too busy” to work on your actual goals
👉 Filling your schedule with things that feel productive but don’t move the needle
👉 Overcommitting to everyone else so you have an excuse to avoid your dreams
👉 Procrastinating, even on things you say you want
👉 Constantly consuming content and courses—but never implementing
👉 Scrolling instead of doing the uncomfortable task
👉 Second-guessing every decision until you give up
👉 Saying “I don’t have time” when it’s really “I’m afraid to change”
👉 Starting over again and again without ever finishing
👉 Setting the bar just out of reach so you don’t have to deal with success (or failure)
👉 Sabotaging relationships or opportunities when things are going well
Self-sabotage is almost always about safety, not failure. Our brains cling to the familiar—even when it’s painful—because it feels safe.
So tell me honestly 👇 Where do you notice self-sabotage in your own life right now?
