182. Why You Give Up Before You Even Start (and How to Stop)
from Strong Is a Mindset · host Carrie Holland, MD, CPT
Have you ever given up on yourself before you even tried? That quiet moment where you think, "I already know how this is going to go"? Maybe it's about that workout you planned, the healthy lunch you packed, or the boundary you intended to set. The truth is, you're not failing in the moment. You're giving up before you even get there. I call this "pre-resignation," and once you see it, you can't unsee it. Tune in this week to discover why pre-resignation happens, and why it feels like truth instead of a choice. You'll learn why your protective self is faster than your growth-focused self, and how to recognize which version of you is making your decisions. Most importantly, you'll walk away with a simple but powerful way to interrupt this cycle and stop giving up before you even start.
