  • 5 WAYS YOU'RE SABOTAGING YOURSELF
    Self-sabotage is something a lot of us do and we do it by engaging in bad habits that we're not always aware that we're doing.
    When we're stuck, sometimes we know exactly why and sometimes we just can't figure it out. Why aren't things getting better? Why do we keep struggling? And for many of us, it's because we've developed bad habits we don't even realized we're doing, but are totally sabotaging our growth, happiness and success.
    In this episode of GoodForMeTV, I am going to tell you the 5 bad habits that most of us subconsciously do that are keeping us stuck and frustrated and struggling, and what we can do to deal with them right here and right now.

      One way to get over some of these issues is to recognize that you are definitely getting something out of living in these negative behaviors. When you see that you really love to "wait for someone to come and save you", and work through that, then you can move past it. Realizing that there is something better beyond these self-limiting behaviors gives you something to look forward to besides just the negative internal banter that you've been living with.

    No one is coming. No Prince Charming. And, I am not Cinderella. I grew up with the ridiculous idea and expectation that a man would make me happy and keep me safe. But that isn't reality. Because if a man can do that, he can also make you miserable and unsafe. It is entirely up to me to choose the paths that are safe and loving. I am my own Prince Charming!

    1. Assuming other people are judging you ; solution - assume people like you
    2. Waiting to be Happy - Thinking you'll only be happy "if x" - solution - allow yourself to be happy now!
    3. Expecting people to change, or help you (without asking) - solution - ask, and if they don't change, change your expectations.
    4. Stopping/Giving when life gets hard - solution - make the most of your life despite
    5. You're the Expert and Boss Of You -- no one else is as invested. *I changed the language because I thought it was kind of triggering.*

    “No one is coming to do it for you, to fix you, to save you.”
    This is so true and one I spent years denying despite being told something similar many years ago. Once you realize this you can own your power and make things happen for yourself. It isn’t easy but it feels so much better than waiting for others (who, as you say in the video, aren’t nearly as invested in your life as you are) to do it for you. The best freedom is to take responsibility for your self, your feelings, your actions, the direction your life is going. Lead yourself. Look deeply, look and see - don’t mind read.
    In a very real sense, I think we can say someone is coming and that someone is you (i.e. yourself, I, me). That is what has been missing - self-love, self-care, self-direction. I’ve been looking outside, scared to death of what someone might be thinking, knocked out of the seat of my own consciousness, waiting to be restored to my place within myself. It’s up to me. Yes.
    Such a great video. These are the best ones I’ve seen on UA-cam and they have been very helpful to me. Thank you, Julia.

      Richard Patik do you think iT may have something to do with school? We are trained to listen and to confirm to someone else, a leader, or a peer-leader, or the stuff the state lays up on us. In case of the leaders, when they’re good ones, that’s super ok, but when they’re negative ones, oh dear. In my experience as teacher, there are as many or even more classes with a negative leader, than there are with a positive one. Or maybe I am biased? I wish there could be some research done on this topic. Or does it exist? JuliaKristina? I think it might be due to what I think of as a fact, that most kids don’t like to go to school. I’m talking mostly teenagers. And so the sphere is negative to begin with.

I use to think my life would be better out of the south by marrying a handsome Asian guy who is looking for a wife was going to take me to their hometown while I enjoyed him, his cooking, & make some babies. I'm starting to mature @ 27 & realized the guy might come from a southeast Asian country that disrespects women, he can change negatively, being female I would learn how to cook from his mom & be criticized while being told I'm never enough for her son, the possible kids will be possibly stressed by their father & possibly bullied for being mixed. I learned that is not the way I want my life, I should make my life & not jump into something regretful like my dad did w/my mom. I hope I'm on topic😬...

    Happiness (as opposed to peacefulness and contentedness) is a fleeting thing at the best of times and I think people tend to chase it too hard. I find the best way to deal with those ups and downs is to focus on living in the present and commit yourself to practicing it. Gratitude for what most people consider the basic things in life ie/ a roof over your head, a warm place to sleep, food to eat, love and just the fact that you're still alive is really what counts imo....so I remind myself of that every time I start questioning my 'happiness'. Rather than tossing a ball over my shoulder for my dog while I'm sitting in front of the computer, I take time to engage with him, to really see his excitement and playfulness, far away from screens... and as a result, we both walk away so much happier and appreciative. I take time to have face to face conversations with friends at least once a week. Some people might look at my quiet lifestyle here in the Gulf Islands as "oh my, that poor girl, she's all alone...she's 'stuck' in life", but really, it's the opposite. By removing myself from all the mental clutter of my previous, rushed city life, I forced myself to get acquainted with myself, to start asking myself hard, uncomfortable questions...left with no recourse other than to answer those questions honestly. Now those problems are gone, dealt with. What I discovered after doing this, (aside from those basic fundamentals I mentioned earlier), was that everything else in life is just 'unnecessary extras'....just fluff.
    Thanks for the piece on 'mind reading', I needed that. I've had a couple confusing experiences with neighbours playing games with me (after not getting something from me that they wanted mind you as I'm steadfast on my boundaries these days) that had me working out their motives in my mind. Stupid really, as I can't possibly know for sure what's going on in their mind....and most importantly, as you said, "It. Is. None. Of. My. Business". lol
    As always, thank you so much for all your life changing insight....it really helps me through my day to day journey :)

I had a constant notion that he was not liked me, he was hating me, I guessed it from his face, I thought. He stayed for ten consecutive days, all these days I had the same feeling, I was so sure for his feeling. BUT the day he left, he came to me , he told me that the service was great and he would be glad to meet me the next year, he gave me a GENEROUS tip. Many thanks from Greece.

    I love the last point: 'no one is coming, to save us, to fix us, etc.' First time I realised this as teeneager (living with violent narcistic father and absent passive unavailable mother) and I was searching the way to free myself from abuse and violence. I didn't have great understanding of the concept but the seed has been planted in my mind and soul. Then I fell in abusive relationship for years - there was second call of realisation: I read the book: "Women who love too much" Robin Norwood. I undersdood that there is no one to save me, I have to do this myself. Then I started my work to expand my capacity, I was learning lots of different things and step by step moving forward. I am 43 now and still doing work with myself... but when looking backwards, I see how far I came from, how many battles I fouht. I am still not the person who I want to be but I achieved something really big that not many people can understand... and I understand why they not, because they have not done work, they 'going with flow' and waiting for miracles or other 'chances which are behind corner'. But there is nothing! Only you! And only you can do it! So, the thing what I achieved is - freedom. I doing my life from my free will foundation and I wouldn't sell this out for any treasure on this world. Freedom is equal to being responsible for yourself (that's why people sabotaging own freedom - they don't want to take responsibility of themselves); it gives deep understanding that your actions/no-actions have consequences and you are responsible for your choices; if your life gets shit = you made it! = you can change it), sometimes it's hard but... there is noting to compare with wonderful feeling that you live your own life, and your life trully meaning.
    Thank you for reading.

The way I think has always been the problem, and probably always will be. I get so angry when I have a panic attack, or bad anxiety, or whatever, and people say "just stop". We'll gee, didn't know it was that simple, okay I will, thanks.

    yeah so true. Once life was really tough for me and I went for a run and I saw a little beetle on the ground making his way. It made me think that life really is hard even for a little beetle on the ground. But look at him even he's doing his best and he's making his way, he is not just giving up cuz it's hard. It made me want to keep going and encouraged me and somehow felt really relatable to this little beetle on the ground. Like life is just hard by default for every living things really so we should be like that little beetle and just press on and never give up

    Ultimately what other people think of me is none of my business- that saying sets me free too!

    I think that the notion that no one is coming is liberating. I waited for years and years hoping someone would save me from my misery and as time progressed, I started to feel even more sad, angry, and lonely because it made me feel like no one cared. However, once I adopted the thought that no one is coming and I am responsible for my own happiness, I was able to let go of the anger and sadness. Yes I still feel lonely, but for the first time I feel like I am in control of my future.

    No one is coming is a tough one I’ve worked through before because there had been promises made and I gave so much of myself. It’s empowering though. There are people whose intentions are negative; however, those can be avoided and showing up with an assumption that people’s intent is positive would help quite a bit and prevent unnecessary conflict. Thanks for sharing.

She was my rock and met all of my needs and I met all of her‘s. She even force me to do things and to come out of my shell. Sometimes I would get mad at her but I loved it. But then she turned against me and she and her boyfriend put me through hell when I lived with them. I also need to start seeing that people aren’t going to judge me. In fact, most people do assume good things about me.

    If you have family members who ALWAYS have a negative opinion of you *no matter what you do,* it's a safe bet that they will have bad thoughts toward you. At that point, best you can do is adjust your relationship with them accordingly. That could mean minimal contact, a period of separation, no contact, or anything in between.

      Mr. D. I did put some distance between me and my siblings. The sad thing was I sold everything to move home to care for Mom in her later years. I can't actually leave now, but I disappear whenever they are there. They are Mom's favorites so I won't make her choose between us. I'm building a house nearby so I won't have to be in the same house. I'm happy. Moms happy. I don't care what the others think. I'm successful so it's okay. Maybe they are afraid I'm taking their place as the darlings that Mom adores. LOL If they only knew how she defends their bad behavior toward me! She usually blames me, even though I don't really deserve the bad temper tantrums they throw. It's not my problem. 🤔😄✌🏽️

      Not a good situation - I feel for you but am glad you're able to make the best of it. Sounds like you're handling it well. My family situation has always been complicated, and I have never had much support, just alot of criticism and disappointment. But, it stopped bothering me as much awhile back, and I feel alot better when minimizing or cutting off contact with some of them, since they have zero self-awareness and no desire to work through any issues of any sort.

    Wow. Ok your last point, no one is coming. I have to admit, I ask God all the time to stop what I am going through. That I'm putting it onto someone else. That I either dont wanna do the work cause its gonna be work to change it or I'm not ready or whatever. But when you said no one is coming, no one is going to do it for you, a light bulb turned on!! This has never happened around this subject before. I KNOW no one can change me or take away my thoughts or how I think them, but it hit me. I still want someone to do it cause I dont know how. Cause when you're a child, your mother does so much for you. Cuts up your meat, washes your face, dresses you. Someone else did it for me. And I learned to wash my face and dress myself, I just have to learn what I dont know how to do which IS to take great care of myself. It wasnt as devastating as it has been in the past to hear that. I just kinda shut off or shut down when no one did it for me, and I know I'm different from everyone else and my wants and needs are different. I've said many times, if 40 billion of us were all the same, looked alike talked alike thought alike, then why would so many people need to be here!?? Thank you!! That was helpful

    The tough part is moving forward on the path to better yourself. I realized the 5th point early on in my life and it makes you lose any kind of hope. For me, I'd try. However, what happens is like what you discussed in one of your other videos, I'd half-ass it. I know things are hard, but in my mind, I still refuse to go all in. There would be times too when I'd force myself to go all in too (realizing in some way but not fully that I shouldn't be half-assing), but still fail. This feeling is really debilitating. Thank you again for your videos. I signed up for the waitlist, but in the meantime, I hope I can find more answers to help me.

After years of trying to figure out how to "fix" my marriage, and ask why my husband was never happy, I heard myself think one day, "it's not your job to make him happy, and no one is going to make you happy but you." It was the catalyst that started the ball rolling to leaving my 27 year marriage. I am married almost 4 years now, to a man who is self aware, and if you have self awareness, then you have something to work with and build upon.

    1. Mind reading
    How would you show up differently if you assume other people are thinking good thoughts about you.
    Other people’s opinions are none of your business.
    2. Waiting for life to get good to wait to be happy.
    Happiness is not a destination it’s a decision.
    Be present in the moment, be grateful
    3. Expecting other people to offer things that they are not offering
    Respect that other people’s jobs isn’t meeting your needs and expectation
    Nobody can make you happy and it’s not their responsibility to do that.
    4. Life if supposed to be easy
    We get to do this once so do the best we can
    5. No one is coming to do it for you
    Nobody else is more impacted with what you do with your life but you.
    That’s a good thing because you don’t have to wait to get the life that you want.

    I live with chronic illness and I try to live a happy life. My illness keeps me stuck. It’s so hard to do what all the counselors like you say when my illness is in the way. Your last comment hit hard. I agree when it comes to trying to heal yourself, being better and making changes every one of us is alone. No one and I mean no one is 100% their for you except you. No dr. No counselor no family member or friend. It’s all up to you. If you have something that you can’t handle but stuck with your whole life like illness or a disorder it’s up to you to make the best of it. It’s sad and lonely. When your in physical pain and alone because every one is busy creating and living their lives and I’m sitting on the couch starring at the walls with my business suit on trying to start my life but can’t cause the pain is debilitating. But I have to or I won’t eat. I will loose the shelter over my head. I’ll be naked if I don’t try. Being stuck is not an option but for me it’s extra hard and extra lonely doing all of it with a monkey on my back.(illness) No one is every there it’s just you. Sure there are good times and good memories but when the room is empty it’s just you. Good luck to you all. I only wish you the best when trying to be the greatest you.
