Your fear of success...
Sometimes we sabotage ourselves right before the breakthrough. What if that's exactly when you need to lean in?
Happy Sunday!
Five minutes each week to reset, reflect, and move forward with intention.
1 INSIGHT TO CONSIDER
Your upper limit isn’t about what you can handle. It’s about what you believe you deserve.
We all have an invisible thermostat for how much success, love, and happiness we’re comfortable experiencing. When we approach that limit, something inside us hits the brakes. We pick fights, create problems, find reasons why things won’t work. It’s not because we can’t handle more goodness - it’s because somewhere deep down, we don’t believe we deserve it.
2 REFLECTIONS TO SIT WITH
Self-sabotage often appears disguised as being “realistic.”
What you’re most afraid of wanting might be exactly what you’re meant to have.
3 PROMPTS FOR THE WEEK
Where do I notice myself pulling back just as things start going well?
What level of success, love, or happiness feels “too good to be true” for me?
What would I allow into my life if I truly believed I deserved it?
Until next week,
Chris
