Why do people sabotage their own efforts?

Published: Fri, 08/16/19

Hi ,

"Something always happens by "coincidence" every time I make a little headway and I sabotage all of my efforts..."

Does that sound familiar to you?

Morry here...

A reader of mine recently said that he has a desire to make a change in his finances, he has the knowledge and strategies, he knows exactly what he needs to do.

He even has a very clear plan.

But...

Here is what he says:

"I am excellent at creating some extra money, but then something comes up each and every time and it goes down the
drain (sometimes literally)"

Can you identify with this behavior?

This happens to almost everyone of us.

Psychologists call this "Self Sabotage"...but I always like to refer
to it as an incongruence between the conscious and subconscious mind.

Put simply...

You want something, but your subconscious wants something else.

You see, there is a conflict.

Take the example from our reader above:

He wants to make a lot of money...but his subconscious wants to get rid of the money as soon as possible.

Let's try to resolve this conflict by using a logical thinking tool called "Evaporating Cloud" developed by Eliyahu M. Goldratt.

Look at the following diagram that illustrates this conflict.

This diagram needs to be read from left to right like this...

YOU: In order to live a happy and successful life, I need to have financial security, in order to have financial security, I want to make a lot of money.

YOUR SUBCONSCIOUS: In order to live a happy and successful life, I need to keep myself happy, in order to keep myself happy, I want to get rid of money as soon as possible.

Now that you have read the diagram, you can see clearly the illogic of your subconscious mind.

There is an illogical conclusion in your subconscious mind that equates money with unhappiness.

How does this conclusion of the subconscious mind come about?

Imagine when you were 6 years old, you were having dinner with your parents.

They were having a discussion about money, and it turned into a quarrel.

What would the 6 years old "you" feel?

You would feel very sad, unhappy.

What caused you to feel sad?

The only conclusion that you can make at that age is that "Money makes me unhappy."

Years later, you've grown up, and forgotten that incident, but your subconscious mind still remembers the conclusion that you made at 6 years old.

That is....money makes you unhappy, so you had better get rid of it as soon as you can in order to keep you happy.

This is just one subconscious illogical conclusion that is holding you back.

There are thousands more inside your mind constantly keeping you from moving forward.

It is like driving a car with one foot on the gas, and the other is on the brake.

You cannot go very fast even if you have the most powerful engine in your car.

My "Effortless Prosperity System" is designed to help you clear those illogical conclusions inside your subconscious mind so that you will never sabotage your own success again.
