When you\u2019re trying to change your life, there will be people that feel the need to get in your way. A few of them might actually believe they\u2019re trying to help you, but they\u2019re not. They want you to stay just the way you are.That way, they can feel comfortable about not improving themselves, too.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s frustrating to find out that few people are on your side, but it\u2019s something that must be managed <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

if you want to succeed.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

See how others may try to derail your success:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  1. They point out your past failures. We\u2019ve all failed numerous times in the past. Some people in your life will undoubtedly bring up those failures in an attempt to sabotage your efforts.<\/strong>
    <\/strong>
    <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    \u25cf<\/strong>      <\/strong>Suppose you decide to write a column for a magazine. You may have a “friend” who reminds you how bad you were in your high school literature class, and that you couldn’t write even 2 lines of sentences without a spelling mistake. They may even suggest that you find a more reasonable target.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    1. They will try to make you feel guilty. Guilt is another weapon. Sticking with our writing a column theme, you might be told that all that writing takes too much time. Maybe you should spend all that time with your family instead.<\/strong>
      <\/strong>
      <\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. They try to distract you. \u201cHey, forget writing. Let\u2019s all go on a big vacation together instead.\u201d<\/strong>
      <\/strong>
      <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      These are just a few of the less devious ways those around you might try to sabotage your efforts. But why would they do it in the first place? It doesn\u2019t seem kind and supportive, and it\u2019s not. Though they might try to present it that way.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      There are several reasons why people close to you try to sabotage your efforts:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      <\/h3>\n\n\n\n
        \n
      1. They want to stay comfortable with their mediocrity. If you do something amazing, they have to deal with the fact that they have not. No one wants to feel like they\u2019re losing the game of life. Rather than deal with their own fear, insecurity, and laziness, it\u2019s just easier and less work to hold you back.<\/strong>
        <\/strong>
        <\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
      2. Jealousy. While there are some people that are genuinely happy to see you achieve something great, win the lottery, or lose 50 pounds, there are even more that are jealous. They\u2019ll try to stop you from being successful. And if that doesn\u2019t work, they\u2019ll attempt to diminish the value of your success.<\/strong>
        <\/strong>
        <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

        \u25cf<\/strong>      <\/strong>For example, \u201cOh, if I had all of your free time, I could easily lose 50 pounds, too.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

          \n
        1. People don\u2019t like change. Everyone is getting something from you. If they got nothing out of their relationship with you, they wouldn\u2019t associate with you at all. If you change, it threatens the status quo. If you become something different, where does that leave them?<\/strong>
          <\/strong>
          <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

          \u25cf<\/strong>      <\/strong>It\u2019s psychologically easier for them if you just stay the same.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

          The solution is to commit to being successful in spite of the objections of others. You might want to consider removing the worst offenders from your life. Life is hard enough without having your own friends and family trying to make it even harder.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

          Commit to your goals for the right reason. Impressing others is a shallow reason for doing something. Do it for yourself.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

          Consider keeping your big goals to yourself. You receive less resistance from others. Choose what\u2019s best for your life and do it! You don\u2019t need the approval of others.<\/strong><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
