You know the drill:

You decide that itโ€™s time to eat better, go to the gym, finally write that business plan, or stop binge-scrolling at midnight; youโ€™ve read the articles, understood the logic behind whatever it is that you want, and even feel motivated โ€“ at least for the first day or two โ€“ and, thenโ€ฆsomething happens (or, more accurately, something doesnโ€™t happen).

It might look like this:

You avoid the gym; you order a takeaway instead of cooking, or you open up Netflix again instead of writing your plan until you eventually find yourself sitting there, frustrated with yourself and asking:

If that sounds familiar, then I want you to know that youโ€™re not broken, lazy, or weak:

Whatโ€™s actually happening is much deeper than just a lack of willpower because the problem youโ€™re dealing with is almost always rooted in unresolved pain that drives unconscious intentions (which we can define as intentions that actively work against your conscious desires).

In this article, weโ€™ll explore why you keep sabotaging yourself, how to identify the hidden forces behind your behaviour, and practical strategies to finally make the changes you consciously want.

Letโ€™s dig a little deeper (full article): olianderson.co.uk/sabotaging-yourself/
