Published: April 26, 2021, 8 p.m.

Spiritual curator and founder of Soul Manifesto, Alena Chapman, has many claims to success. She is a bestselling author, a radio podcast host, and spiritual guide who has helped so many achieve the success they were meant to. She has also been a classical singer and conductor. However, her successes came to her only after she had made a realization about herself, and made life changes that helped her eventually succeed. It was a difficult realization, which, however, was necessary for her to chase and embrace her own success.

⭐️ There are times in our lives when we self-sabotage our own success. This is because we feel unworthy of our possible success and achievements.

⭐️ We find excuses not to do things that will lead to our success. We stop ourselves from doing our best -- in other words, we self-sabotage.

⭐️ Procrastinating, finding reasons not to be ambitious, making poor choices – these are all forms of self-sabotage.

⭐️ Look inward to see what you really want, and identify the ways in which you could be sabotaging your own success.

⭐️ Recognize and stop self-sabotaging. Believe that you deserve your success. Believe in your own power.

She admits that she would do this consciously, which puzzled her for a long time before she realized the reason behind these self-negating acts and omissions. Alena has also seen this kind of behavior in others, and she explains why so many of us display the kind of self-sabotaging behavior that do us harm. Listen now to know what self-sabotage is and how to avoid it.
