Self-Love and Self-Sabotage

Do you know that moment when things are going so well in your life that you start to sabotage yourself subconsciously. One day I can feel on top of the world, the next day I can’t stop crying – I’m feeling angry, I’m feeling sad. I’m feeling frustrated. It’s not because something bad is going on in my life, quite the opposite. It’s all so good, so beautiful but I’m feeling overwhelmed.

I had to travel today. I woke up, but avoided packing until the last minute so I missed the first bus. And I just arrived in the hotel I’ve booked and it’s all so beautiful, two pools, all kinds of great facilities. And then I realised I forgot my passport, when I have a whole journey planned at the weekend to the other side of Mexico where I have a really important booking. Everything would have been so good, but now I have to spend a whole day going back to get it and it makes me so angry with myself.

I guess sometimes that’s just the way it works out. When things are going so good in your life, you start to sabotage yourself because you can’t handle it emotionally. It’s sometimes a fine line between self-love and self-sabotage.

What to do about it? Stay strong, learn from the experience, resolve not to let it happen again. I am strong, I am worthy, I am powerful. Tomorrow I can laugh about it.
