6 Ways You're Sabotaging Your Weight Loss Goals

What are the top reasons why people sabotage themselves from having complete control over their mojo? 

1. Fear 
Fear holds us back from the best of everything. And that can be fear of failure, fear of success, fear of the unknown, and fear of change. 

2. Limiting beliefs 
Limiting beliefs keep us "safe" and stuck. We believe something old, negative, or outdated that doesn't serve us, and hang onto that belief at the expense of our health and well-being. 

3. Negative mindset 
A mindset and perspective that's negative or pessimistic prevents us from being, doing, and having more. 

4. Poor habits 
Some of us simply have habits that prevent us from looking, feeling, and living our best. For example, exercise fits into this category perfectly. A new habit can be getting up early, putting on the fitness clothes before leaving the bedroom, and working out the first opportunity you have. Wearing the clothes gives us that mental head start which is half the battle and is a way to create new habits.

5. Relationships 
Our relationships can propel us forward or they can hold us back. If we're spending time with people who are critical, judgmental, negative, unsupportive, and walk around with a "lack" mentality, we'll take on those qualities and think less of ourselves. When we're with people who are inspiring, uplifting, positive and filled with energy, we step up our game. Take a look at whom you're spending your time with and it will tell you a lot about how you feel. 

6. Lack of awareness 
Unfortunately for many of us, it takes an illness, crisis, tragedy, or trauma to "wake us up" and evaluate how we've been living and if we're headed in a direction that takes us where we want to go. Without that shakeup, many of us unconsciously go through our days with the greatest goal possibly being no more than simply getting through our day.
