Ep.4 Self-Defeating Mindset and Self-Destructive Behaviors | Check your BS at the Door and Point a Finger at Yourself

TP Elevates! Podcast

Everybody around you seems to be having the craziest luck. Opportunities are falling out of the sky and into their lap. At every turn, someone you know is experiencing an upgrade in life. New car, house, relationship, position at work or on the team, pay increase, bonus, recognition or award. All the while, you're frustrated because that same luck seems to keep passing you by. You need a new car, your relationships are rocky, you hate your boss and the job itself, your pay sucks, you haven't had a merit increase or bonus in as long as you can remember. Not one opportunity has come your way. Or, could there be an alternative answer for what you're experiencing?
It's very easy to point the finger away from ourselves as to blame the cause of our problems on others, when in fact the main culprit stares back at us in the mirror. That pessimist friend or relative that you love who always seems to rise and fall, and afterward, find blame for their situation's demise everywhere but within. A self-defeatist mindset is tough to overcome, but with time, it too can be concurred like most others. Take the athlete who complains about not having an opportunity to showcase her/his abilities, and then fails miserably when given the chance, or refuses to even step up. Instead, the athlete goes out of their way to sabotage the opportunity, making way for another grateful athlete to step up. The self-defeatist athlete will then return to bitterness, frustration, resentment and blame.
In this episode, Ty discusses the self-defeatist mindset and self-destructive behaviors. He shares stories and provides real examples to illustrate and define for you the perspective from which he is approaching the subject-matter. Not just for athletes, many have experienced or interacted with a person with self-destructive tendencies and a self-defeatist mindset. We know people who have sabotaged great situation's both at the onset and in the midst. Ty shares a number of experiences and examples. Listen in and see if anything you hear sounds familiar or resonates with you.
