No matter how experienced you may be in online business, every entrepreneur is guilty of self-sabotage. I include myself in this. I have been an online entrepreneur for many years now, and while I have enjoyed significant success, I can still be guilty of self-sabotage.
Thankfully, I have learned to recognise the warning signs of self-sabotage – whether subconscious or conscious – and now I take action to prevent them from harming my online business, and stop my own behaviour from preventing me from reaching my goals. In this episode of The Sigrun Show, I will share techniques on how you can do the same.
How do you self-sabotage? According to many psychology experts, sabotaging behaviors are those that create problems and interfere with your ability to achieve your long-standing goals. For many business owners, self-sabotaging behavior often manifests as procrastination and blaming others.
I discuss the various ways that many entrepreneurs sabotage their success. I share some of the excuses we use to place the blame of our lack of success on others and how to identify – and overcome – self-sabotage.
