Leech Letters - Issue 23 - Barriers

For those who are new here: I send out an email every Saturday. Could be S&C related , could be about coaching, could be life related, it's really whatever I feel like writing about. Hopefully it hits home for you too.

Today, I want to hit you with a reality: the barriers to your success are often self-imposed.

Think about the things you've done that you didn't want to do. These actions create a cycle of self-sabotage. Deep down, you know you haven't always held up to your own word, leading you to believe you don't deserve success. Your main objective becomes self-protection, and this guilt prevents you from reaching your full potential.

Here's the truth:

Environmental Influence : Being in a high-performing environment can pull you out of your rut. When you’re surrounded by excellence, you’re forced to rise to the occasion, shifting focus from your past mistakes to surviving and thriving. But if that environment changes and the necessity to perform diminishes, you'll fall back into old habits unless you've addressed your underlying issues and learned to create your own sense of urgency.

Confronting Past Actions : Facing and dealing with your past mistakes can free you from these self-imposed limits. Once you handle what’s been holding you back, you no longer need external forces to push you forward. You can create and achieve without feeling undeserving or guilty.

Your body, mind, and spirit are aligned with the truth—they cannot lie. Just like rehabbing an injury, the process requires honesty and commitment.

Look at your conflicts. Who do you resent? What excuses do you make for your shortcomings? Understand that you've put these obstacles in your own path. By acknowledging and addressing them, you can remove these barriers and unlock your potential.

Success is not just about external achievements but internal alignment. Confront your truths, resolve your issues, and open the door to limitless possibilities.

Keep the fire burning,

Leech
