We are either thinking of reasons why we shouldn’t fully engage (now’s not a good time, when ____ happens then I’ll engage, I’ll start tomorrow, and the like) or we are thinking of reasons why we should fully engage (I’m worth it, this behavior or action is consistent with who I want to be and the results I want to produce, I’m the kind of person who goes for it, and the like).

100% of the time – any time we procrastinate, hesitate, or avoid, it is because we are telling ourselves some sort of lousy disempowering story. When we change those stories, we change our lives.
