Our only responsibility is to make decisions for the person we have become.

At the end of the day, self-sabotage sometimes functions to show us that we aren’t quite on the right path yet, and that we need to reevaluate to determine what would feel best for our lives, even if that means we disappoint some people or even our younger selves.

It is very hard to show up as the person you want to be when you are surrounded by an environment that makes you feel like a person you aren’t.

Stop accepting your own excuses. Stop being complacent with your own justifications. Start quantifying your days by how many healthy, positive things you accomplished, and you will see how quickly you begin to make progress.

Wanting is the entryway to showing up after resistance.

If we try to force ourselves to perform in the face of resistance, it usually intensifies the feeling, as we are strengthening the internal conflict and triggering the fear that’s holding us back in the first place.

All the ways in which you are self-sabotaging are actually ways that you are feeding a need you probably do not even realize you have.

what you have are not big problems but big attachments.

Self-sabotage is when you have two conflicting desires. One is conscious, one is unconscious. You know how you want to move your life forward, and yet you are still, for some reason, stuck.
