How are you sabotaging yourself?

"If you play it safe in life you've decided that you don't want to grow any more."

How are you sabotaging your potential for change?

We unconsciously use defence mechanisms to shield us from situations we perceive to be scary or painful. A part of you may want to grow and change, but another part may be resisting because change always moves you into new territory in your thinking and emotions.

If you find you are getting anxious, fearful, angry, frustrated, dismissive or unmotivated, then defence mechanisms are at work. Watch for them and know them to be signs of fear that wants to hold you back. Then courageously move through them.

Especially love the last quote. I was a prisoner of my own mind. As I told the girls when I volunteered to do meetings for AA, NA, and Al-Anon and do one on ones for AA and NA, "I didn't need iron bars, I was in my own self-imposed prison."

Just like this Santa, going no where fast!

Are you your own worst enemy?
