Things That Could Be Holding You Back In Life #2

 

People around us not motivating us and draining our energy - The people we have around us can impact our mood, what we do, how we act and how we speak. If you are constantly arguing with your partner, this will affect your mood. The time wasted arguing, could have been put to something more productive. If you have a partner who sleeps in late and lazes around it can rub off on you, causing you to be less productive. If your friends speak negatively, like to complain, gossip and rarely speak of their goals and ambitions then this is not very encouraging nor motivating which ruins your energy levels and puts you on a lower frequency. Other people unloading their problems onto you can be a burden on you and can affect your own well-being.

 

Caring what others think - If we care too much about what others think we will not be true to ourselves. We will be afraid to be our authentic selves in fear of judgment and how others may view us. For example, you may want to start a YouTube channel but wonder, what will people think about me? How will I come across? Will they laugh at me? Will they talk about me to others? People will talk regardless, so if it is something you want to do and will make you happy, then just do it. Other people’s opinions do not matter. Think about how many people will admire you and all the positivity that will come with it. Don’t focus on people that don’t matter or play no parts in your life. If they were genuine people, then they wouldn’t judge you in the first place. Them judging you says more about them than it does you. Stay true to yourself and everything that is supposed to be for you will fall into place.

 

Not utilising your vision board properly - You may have made a visualisation board but to utilise this and to take it even further you need an action plan. What steps can you take to get to this vision, what may be in your way and what can you do to change this? Don’t just make your vision board and never look at it, look at it daily to inspire you and to bring in into your life. If you have an image of your dream car, what steps can you actively take to get this car? Do you need to save up? Do you need a higher paying job? This will help you to move closer to your vision.

 

Not having belief in yourself - Without belief that you can achieve something you will never achieve what it is you really want. At least give yourself a chance by believing in yourself. Let go of the negative feelings you have that stop you from getting started. Many successful people you see, grew up in worse circumstances and were able to make something of their lives. If they are able to do it, then why can’t you? And don’t say it was luck, it was because they believed in themselves.
