HOW TO RESOLVE THIS
We can all acknowledge and appreciate other people’s di-verse
accomplishments and talents while still being happy about our own. Instead
of shrugging off a compliment, we can respond by saying: “Thank you, I
worked very hard, and I’m happy to be here.”
If the fear is that we are “peaking” too soon, we have to reform our idea of
progress. We do not get better only to get worse again. We do not achieve
one thing only to lose it and return to what we were before. That instinct is
a self-sabotaging behavior, one that wants to keep us within our old comfort
zone.
Instead, we can acknowledge that when one part of our life improves, it
radiates out to everything else. When we achieve one thing, we are better
equipped for the future.
Life tends to gradually get better as we keep working on it; it only gets
worse if we accomplish something then shut down because we are
intimidated by our own power.

This is the most common way that people sabotage their own success: by
maintaining habits that are actively keeping them away from their goals.
This is when someone declares that they want to be in better shape but
doesn’t change anything they do each day to facilitate that. Or when they


want to make a change professionally but find ways to make it difficult if
not impossible for them to actually do it.
At the core of all these behaviors is the fact that one part of our psyche
understands that we should be evolving and moving forward with our lives
and another part is intimidated by the potential discomfort it would bring.
Usually, this culminates in so much inner tension and frustration that a
breaking point is reached, and changes are made from there.
However, the goal is to not have to get to a crisis point in your life before
you can become aware of the ways you’re holding yourself back from
living peacefully and comfortably.
