If you always blame others and choose to ignore how your behavior correlates to an outcome, this demonstrates a lack of self awareness around the decisions we make. The second biggest sign I would say is choosing to walk away when things get hard. This demonstrates that you may unconsciously not believe that your goals are worth sacrifice. Choosing to stick it out when things get tough shows a commitment to your growth.
Sometimes our biggest enemy isn't others, it's ourselves. Self sabotage is a complicated psychological experience whereby we unconsciously undermine our own goals and wellbeing because of an implicit belief that we don't deserve our success, are afraid of failure, or cannot allow ourselves to be happy. From dating people we shouldn't, to procrastination, indecision, doom scrolling and self destructive behaviours, it all comes down to our unconscious beliefs about our self worth. Today we explore the origins and causes of self sabotage, from Freud's ideas of the 'death drive' and 'anti-self', coping mechanisms, to the impact of unresolved emotional trauma and self punishment to understand why it is we self sabotage, and how we can get out of our own way.
