Self-sabotage doesn’t stop because you work harder. It stops when you believe you’re finally safe to succeed.
Many of us learned to equate peace with boredom, love with performance, and success with pressure. But healing asks us to rewrite those stories.
Here’s how to start breaking the pattern:
- Forgive your past self — for the times you didn’t feel safe enough to follow through
- Stop trying to prove your worth — you already have it
- Make peace feel safe again — recognize it’s not punishment, it’s healing
- Receive without guilt — you were meant to thrive, not just survive
- Say yes to yourself — especially in the small ways, daily
This isn’t about forcing change. It’s about allowing it.
