Episode Eleven - Mums Who Want More

Sabotages

What I talk about in this episode:

I am going to talk about our sabotages and how we hold ourselves back. It is quite easy to blame others for what you have to do or what you don’t have, but really, we are attracting what we have to do and have. So how can we make this work for us?

Identifying when we are sabotaging yourself.

You have decided to make some small changes and it hits Wednesday and you are exhausted.

What do you do?

Your brain will give you the easiest option of doing what you normally do because that is all it has reference to, that is what is in the filing cabinet.

Treat your sabotage as a ‘door knocker’.

Acknowledge they are there.

Be kind and say no thank you.

Change your pattern of behaviour.

By changing your behaviour your brain has a new way of thinking and something else to choose from its filing cabinet.

So, when you hit Wednesday you will then have two options to choose from.

You may be hit with this choice for a period of time but eventually your body will know which one you prefer and it will become automatic.

What happens if you give your brain two options that are both super supportive.
