How to beat Self Sabotage

One of the biggest obstacles on the road to success is self sabotage.

Self sabotage occurs when we know what we want to achieve but for some reason,
we act in a way that moves us away from our goal instead of towards it.

“Self sabotage does not occur because
you are weak. It occurs because
your dream is weak”
- Anthony Fernando


Here are 10 ways given by Dr.Anthony Fernando to strengthen your dream in order to combat self sabotage:

(1) Place a picture of your dream on the ceiling above your bed so that you see it every
morning and every evening before you go to sleep.

(2) Place a picture of your dream on the back of your bathroom door.

(3) Carry a picture of your dream in your wallet or purse.

(4) Place a picture of your dream wherever you are most likely to be tempted.

(5) Use the power of public pressure and tell people about your dream. The more you
talk about it to others, the stronger your dream becomes.

(6) Hook up with a 'dream buddy' - Team up with someone who shares your dream and make a commitment to each other to make your dream a reality.

(7) Join a support group - Find an online support group and work with others to create
an encouraging and supportive atmosphere.

(8) Keep a journal - Record your experiences in a journal or a blog(well this blog created for one such purpose) . The more you write, the stronger your dream becomes.

(9) Associate your dream with a song that you find particularly inspirational. When you
are tempted to give in to temptation, listen to your song to rekindle your passion for
your dream.

(10) When you're face-to-face with temptation, ask yourself what you really want.
