Getting Unstuck: How to Fix the 3 Most Common Behaviors Holding High Achievers Back

So before we dive in, let's talk about what we mean with patterns.

So you've come a long way to get where-- exactly where you are today, and the challenge is the patterns of behavior that drive your actions on a day-to-day basis and a week-to-week basis just aren't getting you where you wanna go.

That's why we keep slipping up and falling back on the same old patterns, and they keep stopping us in our tracks, and it's very, very frustrating.

But the first thing we wanna do is talk about what those behavioral patterns define and what they don't define.

So it's very, very true that how you behave, your patterns of consistent behavior, are absolutely gonna define your outcomes.

That's what defines the results that we get on a day-to-day and a week-to-week basis.

The mistake we see is a lot of times we think those patterns, that behavior defines ourselves and our identity, and that is not helpful at all.

So we wanna separate the pattern from the person.

You are not your behavior, even if you are behaving that way regularly.

That defines the results we get, not who we are.

So the first step, let's again separate the pattern from the person.

We wanna let go of any embarrassment, right, any shame that we may be feeling about why we keep slipping up and making the same mistakes and finding ourselves back at square one.

Here's the reality.

We have to grow to change, and all growth happens outside of our comfort zone.

So even though you keep repeating these mistakes, it doesn't mean that you're permanently flawed.

It just means you haven't learned yet.

We have to then get uncomfortable for a while to learn those new behaviors, so we can go to the next level.
