What's Holding You Back?
If there's one truth, theres something holding us all back from getting to the level we want
Typically it's not even because we're incapable, dumb or untrained
In a lot of cases it can be said that it's because we're arrogant...
Arrogant in thinking we're special, talented or in some way we don't need to put in the work other people do...
But is this arrogance or is this really just a defense mechanism?
If you find yourself falling victim to...
- Perfectionism
- Negative Self Talk
- Scrolling
- Anxiety
- Starting but never Finishing
- Mental Masturbation
It's probably because you have some limiting thoughts about what you deserve...
Too often we say we're not worthy or are afraid of something that's been instilled into our subconscious
...and the only way to get past them is to become aware of them, be honest about them and take action on that...
So today I challenge you to ask yourself 3 questions
- What do I actually fear most?
- What would life look like if you let go of that fear?
- What are you doing now to avoid this fear (and your own success)?
Just by actually writing this down and bringing these thoughts to the surface, you're able to work on them.
For me...
- I've been afraid of negative judgement towards me...
- Without that fear I'd have more conversations & take my time to do things right instead of fast
- But to avoid this fear I avoid action because it helps me avoid the judgement of failure...
BUT...
Even if you're afraid of judgement like me, you can work it in silence, set small goals, rules and actions for yourself that no one needs to know about but will notice you changing for the better.
Because at the end of the day, the 1 thing holding ourselves back is not our intelligence or circumstances... it's ourselves
Whether we believe it or not, if we work on those quiet insecurities... we will liberate ourselves much more than we realize
This alone has been the mental key to contributed to the success of my highest performing students
Like...
Oliver - who gained over 400k dedicated followers in 1 year
Kieth - who hit 3, $10k months in a row & quit his day job
Breanna - scaled from $0 to a consistent $15k/m in 8 months
Getting over the mental hurdles they created over time has is absolutely paramount
If you wanna dive deeper into this, I highly recommend checking out "The Bout It Mentality" in the classroom tab of this community
Or if you wanna discuss further so you can get past your raod blocks and crush it this year... come to the Monday calls and let's get into it
Much Love
