The Mountain is You

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 keep-
ing 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 im-
possible 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 intimi-
dated 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.
