10 Signs of Self Sabotage
Contractor Evolution • 46m
If you roll into a multi-day hike with tons of vertical and a 50-pound pack after 6 months on the couch eating Doritos, chances are you’re probably not going to have the best time.
But what about if you're asking a lot of your mind?
How many stressful situations do you encounter in your business in a single day?
How often is intense focus demanded of you even though your batteries are drained?
In its simplest form, mental fitness is your capacity to handle life's challenges with a positive rather than negative mindset.
We, as humans, have all formed negative self-sabotaging characteristics that protected us while we were young. However, these same saboteurs can ultimately lead to downfall if we don’t recognize them.
In this episode we have Fyfe Barraclough on to explain the 10 saboteurs that exist, which ones are most common in entrepreneurs, and what we can all do to turn self-sabotage into opportunity.
Watch the full episode to learn how you can transform your metal liabilities into tangible assets.
