How to Stop Sabotaging Your Own Choices and Become Your Biggest Ally
What if the biggest obstacle between you and the life
you want isn't outside of yourself?
You know what you need to do. You make plans. You
set goals. You promise that this time will be different.
But when the time comes to act, something happens.
You procrastinate.
You retreat.
You doubt yourself.
You look for another excuse.
You give up when you were starting to move forward.
And then the question arises:
"Why do I keep doing this to myself?"
In You Against Yourself, Luciana Priscila explores the
psychological and behavioral mechanisms that can lead
us to act against our own interests—even when we know
exactly what we want.
Throughout the book, you will discover how to recognize
the triggers of self-sabotage, understand the hidden logic
behind repetitive behaviors, and build strategies to replace
guilt, perfectionism, and broken promises with more
conscious and consistent actions.
You will learn to:
• identify the patterns that cause you to retreat at crucial moments;
• understand why immediate relief can be costly in the future;
• recognize when fear is disguised as prudence;
• prevent perfectionism from turning into procrastination;
• stop constantly bargaining against your own decisions;
• better manage discomfort, insecurity, and fear of making mistakes;
• rebuild confidence in your own word;
• create systems that facilitate good choices;
• recover quickly after a failure;
And it's not about defeating yourself.
It's about realizing that perhaps you never needed to be
your own enemy.
You've spent too much time fighting against yourself.
Now it's time to switch sides.
