Updated 8 months ago, April 17, 2024

Sometimes, self-sabotage manifests simply as a limiting or underdeveloped belief process that we never took the time to really evaluate. In this episode, we discuss the most common limiting beliefs that are holding you back, such as that there can only be so much good in life before it’s “balanced out by the bad,” or that you must be the best to to be “good enough,” or that change is impossible, because it’s never been successful before.

Show Notes

Limiting beliefs are the core of self-sabotage. Limiting beliefs are the foundation of self-sabotaging behaviors. They can act as constraints on our abilities and future potential.
The first important step is to define and recognize limiting beliefs. Limiting beliefs are repetitive negative thoughts. These thoughts can become core beliefs about life, love, and happiness, which may significantly affect your daily actions and self-perception.
It is essential to challenge limiting beliefs. You can challenge limiting beliefs by shifting your perspective. This may include allowing yourself to recognize the possibility of fulfilling careers, relationships, and self-love.
Do not compare success. It is harmful to equate your own self-worth with becoming “the best.” You do not have the best to be enough.
Strive to overcome the fear of failure. We often fear change due to repeated failures in the past. However, it is imperative to shift your mindset and view these past attempts as steps closer to success. This will allow you to embrace the potential for change and persist through challenges and failures.
