339: Overcoming Self-Sabotage: How to Get Out of Your Own Way

Ever find yourself caught in the trap of "I always" or "I never"? We're tearing down the walls of self-sabotage that keep us from reaching our true potential in fitness and beyond. Join the battle against those sneaky habits that prevent our progress and discover the importance of specific recognition and the redefinition of success. Together, we're rewiring thought patterns to align actions with goals, all while keeping judgment at bay.This episode isn't just about running; it's about constructing a life where we hold the reins to our own behavior. By analyzing the roots of procrastination and the often-overlooked patterns of inaction, we carve out a path to new, constructive habits. We're throwing shame and guilt out the window and replacing them with an objective lens that cultivates growth. It's a candid discussion about how the stories we tell ourselves can either be our downfall or our roadmap to a version of ourselves that's been waiting to hit the ground running.We're not stopping at just identifying the problem. We're stepping into the shoes of who we want to become—literally. Assuming the identity of a runner before the starting gun has profound effects on our mindset and actions. As we sprint through the concepts of identity and the flexibility of our goals, we illustrate how adaptability can lead to a fulfilling experience, regardless of the finish line.
