SELF-SABOTAGE--SIX REASONS
 
by Krystalina Soash
from Ezine Articles.com

1. You seek approval from others.

2. You lack self-confidence.

3. You contract for failure by procrastinating.

4. You seek to prove to yourself that you are a failure.

5. You seek to prove to others that 'they' were right that you're a failure.

6. You are afraid to ask for help; you fear others will think less of you if you do.

Ms. Soash further states, " Never underestimate the power of self-sabotage. Many of us don't even know we are doing it, but it makes us wonder why we don't succeed. The six reasons above are only a starting point for understanding why we do this."
