Stop Self-Sabotage: Get Out of Your Own Way to Earn More Money, Improve Your Relationships, and Find the Success You Deserve

I want to recommend STOP Self-Sabotage! Get Out of your Own Way to Earn More Money, Improve Your Relationships and Find the Success You Deserve by Pat Pearson to you. I reviewed this book in the past, but it's been completely rewritten, picked up by a publisher, and Pearson has done a really fabulous job with it. In fact, I can confidently say that it is even worth re-reading. The new version has better examples, is more up-to-date, and is completely relevant to current circumstances. She makes great points about what is likely stopping you from achieving greatness. In the book, she presents six self-sabotage categories - for instance Procrastination and Settling for Less. The descriptions of the behaviors related to each of these categories are very thought provoking and really cause you to reflect and identify which one is your personal match. The descriptions of how these behaviors and outlooks hold us back are so powerful. I saw myself in the "Settling for Less" category. I've done that with diets and in business. Seeing it laid out as a behavior pattern was sobering. Another real eye opener for me was that "Perfectionism" and "Procrastination" go hand in hand. I'm guilty of it and it's so common for women. We set our selves up with "I have to do this first, and this first, and that..." and delay starting on the real project until things are so "perfect" that we sabotage ourselves by either never beginning the important things, or leaving ourselves so little time that we do a poor job. (Or lower our standards, and "Settle for Less.") Pearson's descriptions will help you see yourself and could help you overcome the problems. By helping you become aware of where you're challenged, this book can help you create a plan to overcome it. And that self-awareness is essential to accomplishing greatness.

Self sabotage is so sneaky! It is so easy to spot in friends and family me,bers, but I seldom can spot it in myself. Where I do see it is when I settle for something less than I really want. And, in my tendency to procrastinate and not do what I KNOW to do! This great book will serve as my mirror to peek behind my blind spots. Thank you, Pat Pearson!

As a Life Coach facilitating sessions on stopping self-sabotage, this is the best resource I have come across. Pat has nailed it! And, presented the material in a way that can be shared with others to generate awareness and change. I am impressed.

If you want deeper relationships this is a book for you -- if you want more money this is a book for you, if you want to live healthier this is a book for you. This book is for both life long learners and beginners. I have read it cover to cover and now give it to my friends and clients so they too can raise their deserve levels and STOP Self-Sabotage.
