The Secret Signs of Self Doubt & How to Stop the Destructive Habits

Self doubt’s a sneaky little snake, isn’t it?

You find yourself struggling to get anything done, failing to find your mojo and feeling like you’re just not doing a good enough job.

I’ll let you in on a little secret: Self doubt is the biggest thing that’s held me back (+ still does sometimes) in my biz.

I can have the clarity, the strategy, the step by step plan, the motivation + all the excitement in the world for what I’m doing but the second there’s a hint of doubt in the air, game over.

I’ll admit, it’s not easy to spot.

There’ve been times where I’ve been stuck in overwhelm, procrasti-scrolling for weeks at a time and then not understanding why I haven’t been achieving the success I want.

WHO AM I TO BE SUCCESSFUL?: HOW TO OVERCOME THE LIMITING BELIEFS THAT HOLD US BACK FROM THE SUCCESS WE DESERVE

If you’re an entrepreneur, chances are this has happened to you.

You thought of an idea - either a new business or a new service/product within that business - got lost in a whirlwind of passion, excitement and enthusiasm for how you’d bring it to life.

You spent hours mapping things out, creating a task list for all the steps you needed to take and had an excitable conversation with someone you love (who still doesn’t really ‘get’ what you do) about this awesome thing.

But then you stopped.

You woke up one morning feeling less excited, less passionate.

Doubts started to creep in.

What ifs started to show up.

Overwhelm hit you like a ten tonne truck.

HOW TO STOP PROCRASTINATING + START TICKING OFF YOUR GOALS EVERY WEEK

We’ve all been there, haven’t we?

Faced with that one task that we keep pushing to tomorrow, pretending it’s not important and doing everything in our power to avoid looking at it on our to do list.

We can’t put our finger on it but there’s just something about it giving us chills.

It’s staring us in the face, teasing us, making us feel guilty, like a failure, for not eating the frog first (disclaimer, I haven’t read that book so apologies if completely wrong analogy).

The closer the deadline gets, the more the overwhelm rises.

We turn to Netflix, cleaning the kitchen, putting on a meditation and pretending we really need to do the mindset shizz right this second. Or we tell ourselves a power nap will help and accidentally (on purpose) forget to set a 20 minute alarm.

Oops. No time for the task now!

FROM BEING STUCK TO SLAYING YOUR GOALS: HERE'S WHAT YOU NEED TO DO

Being stuck is the worst, isn't it?

Whilst it definitely is a mental thing, it can feel physically draining.

You don't wanna get out of bed.

You don't wanna switch off the Netflix.

You don't wanna open up your to do list because OMG I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M DOING.

But there comes a point where you have to make a choice: get yourself out of the mud or sink into the quicksand and disappear forever.

However appealing the quicksand may feel right now, I urge you to go for option A.
