Understanding Self-Sabotage

Self-sabotaging behavior can hold individuals back from achieving their financial and personal goals. Recognizing when one is engaging in self-sabotage is crucial and involves vocalizing the behavior in the moment, which helps to bring subconscious patterns to the surface. This awareness allows individuals to break the cycle of procrastination and avoidance by addressing the immediate task at hand, whether it's a financial decision or a personal responsibility. A common indicator of self-sabotage is the thought of 'I'll just do it later,' which often leads to inaction and missed opportunities.
