Limitations … Are They Real or Imposed?
How many times have your been presented with an idea to do something … and you thought, I can’t or I won’t.
Are you following into the self-sabotage trap by limiting yourself?
- Self-sabotage exists in varying degrees. On one end of the spectrum are individuals who are so destructive that nothing ever goes right for them.
Authors who are in this range beat their words, their writing, and themselves up. Nothing is right with what they are doing - Midway through the spectrum are those who display self-sabotaging behavior periodically. It doesn’t pop up every day, just once in a while. But when it does, it is a doozy of an eruption.
- On the far end of the spectrum are others who show some form of self-sabotage, recognize it, and make a concentrated effort to avoid repeating the specific behavior.
Limitations can be a good thing … but they can also stop you from going forward.
