These are my negative traits, and I know them, but my mind isn’t fully accepting or working towards my goal.

Negative Patterns

  1. Procrastination & Avoidance: You’ve been using procrastination as a shield to protect yourself from failure, but it also keeps you stuck. This pattern is rooted in the fear of not being perfect or not achieving at the level you expect.
  2. Lack of Self-Belief & Doubt: The story you tell yourself that “others are already ahead” and the constant comparing brings you to a halt. This self-doubt and fear of not being enough prevents you from taking bold steps.
  3. Distraction & Escapism: Social media scrolling and oversleeping are forms of escaping reality, avoiding facing discomfort or the effort required to change. They drain your time and energy that could be used for growth.

Please suggest some techniques; I’m open to critical feedback. I just want to excel in my field and become the best version of myself this year.

thank you sm for reading!!

    You’re going to fail, you’re going to get overwhelmed.

    Accept those things, and start journaling. You have to figure out where these mechanisms are coming from. You can also do this in therapy, if you have access to something like that.

    You won’t fix the problem til you figure out what’s causing it. Find the root, and make your changes one at a teeny tiny time.
