EP 3586 Your worst enemy can't hurt you as much as you do

Most people waste years blaming the wrong enemy. They point at their boss, their partner, their past, their circumstances, the economy, their parents, their workload. And yes, those things can be hard. But they are rarely the thing doing the most damage.

In this episode, I unpack a brutal truth. The most consistent source of pain in your life is often you. Not because you are weak, but because you keep running the same self-destructive patterns on repeat. The way you talk to yourself. The standards you keep lowering. The excuses you keep protecting. The procrastination you keep calling rest. The boundaries you do not enforce. The conversations you avoid. The goals you abandon the moment it gets uncomfortable.

We break down what self sabotage actually looks like in real life, how your identity will fight to stay the same even when you say you want growth, and why waiting to feel ready is a trap. If you want a better life, you need a higher level of personal honesty. Not more motivation. Not another plan. You need ownership, discipline, and the willingness to do the work when it is inconvenient.

Your worst enemy is not out there. It is the version of you that keeps choosing comfort over change.
