This Week's Student Leadership Lesson
Self-Sabotage: Getting Out of Your Own Way (part 2)
Self-Sabotaging Traits and Remedies:
6. Expecting failure.
- Remedy - predetermine a positive picture, plan for a positive outcome, eliminate negative options.
7. Being unable to learn from others. This type of person has an "I" problem: infallible, inflexible, insecure.
- Remedy - hang around smarter people than yourself. Soon, you will either start learning from them or be left behind.
8. Refusing the take a risk.
- Remedy - Get bigger goals and get around bigger people.
9. Undisciplined living. This is very costly with your time, your energy, your goals, and your mood.
- Remedy - Set standards that require accountability. Work by the standards, not your moods.
10. Being stopped by failure. People who are stopped by failure see it from a personal perspective; people who are not stopped by failure see it from a process perspective.
- Remedy - lighten up, don't take everything so personally, focus on the possibilities instead of the liabilities, and never stay down.
