"Insight into the past may be somewhat educational. But insight into the past isn't going to change the past."
~Milton Erickson
Hi Caveman,
The simple answer is that you're over analyzing things.
You started to build a belief from something you observe, now that's not wrong, but realize it is subjective.
For e.g. someone else could have taken away from your game scenario that they just have butterfingers for gaming...luckily they have other talents.
Something that causes a stuck state is to believe that a problem is pervasive, a challenge in one area means a challenge in all areas. Someone might lose a contract at work, and start generalizing that his whole life sucks. Before that happens is when you want to stop.
So, having asked all that, here's the magic question:
Imagine that you've already resolved the cause of your self-sabotage. What would be different in your life and how would you know? What would you see, hear, do and believe differently? |
