Very good topic 💛 You made a lot of great points that really made me look at my relationship with my own emotions or views about myself thanks awesome channel 💛 cool a new app to try also 💛
It's like my therapist paid you to make this video LMAO. She's been talking about how meditation could really help me out and I have gone through periods of it but of course I self sabotage THAT. Did some last night tho, thanks so much for your videos and I hope that you are able to find some peace too!!
12:19 sometimes the self-sabotage is because you are scared that something may be too good to be true like you said, but it could also be that you don't really want what you are working towards anymore. Either because it's not big enough (i.e. it actually doesn't scare you enough) or you are just a new person. New level, new devils applies to dreams/goals too.
Journaling has helped me make sense of so many of my intrusive thoughts. Whenever one comes in I remind myself that thoughts are just thoughts, I have the power to validate or invalidate them. It’s my choice what to believe and how to act. Limiting beliefs are meant to keep us stagnant, which is why I think it’s also important to keep your bigger picture goal in mind. Reassess - will giving in to this thought get me to where I want to be? Would I say this to anyone else? And then I usually feel better because it serves as a reminder that I’m the one in control.
That is so awesome! Have you heard of the work of byron katie. I think you will enjoy it a lot. Its free and life changing when it comes to observing/challenging the thoughts 🤗☀️
omg i'm so happy for this comment bc at work, i notice that's when my intrusive thoughts are constant & at an all time high & i end up spiraling. programming ur brain that thoughts are just thoughts & not ur actual reality is so necessary. thank u for this comment so much!
@@anngelllll exactly! that's why there's so much power in living in the present moment, practicing the art of mindfulness-- because it centers us and reminds us of how much power we have! So happy I could help!
It’s crazy how this happens. When things are going amazing, sometimes I find I’m forcing myself to not be happy, waiting for the shoe to drop because things are too good to be true. But for me it’s about letting go of control and to allow myself to be uncomfortable to get where I want to be. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
Yesss letting go of control can be so hard but it always takes surrendering to let the universe guide you and actually enjoy when things are going well!
Super extra, but… I got fired from my job a couple hours ago & as soon as I got home I kept feeling like I needed someone to get encouraging words from & to see your uploads. This video being posted mere minutes ago wasn’t a coincidence… and like you said, the universe is on our sides. This is the second time I’ve been fired right before my birthday and it feels like spirit calling me to stop selling myself short… so I’m gonna finally listen. Thank you for your words & all the great content you make 💕
I’m so sorry that happened but yes 100%, the universe is always guiding you down the right path. This means another door of opportunity is opening up for you and your spirit is guiding you in the right direction. You got this, sending you my love and happy early birthday!❤️
So much love your way sistah 🤗☀️ It is amazing that you are so aware this second time around. Don’t let this mess up celebrating your birthday and how far you have come. Celebrate you, your wins and lessons so far and the awesomeness coming up ☀️
Happy Birthday! I’m at a good paying job that I’m completely miserable at and I’ve been trying to figure out a plan on how to leave because I can’t afford to not have a job. I liked how you said that you feel a spirit is calling you and honestly I’ve been feeling that way for some time now and it has somewhat given me a sense of peace that I will eventually find something better. Even if I end up losing my job I have to also remind myself that everything happens for a reason.
I needed this message today! I’m in the process of getting out of my head, staying consistent with my routine, re-program of subconscious mind for a stronger, self motivating mindset and overall stop distracting myself :) Side-note: don’t call yourself ‘dumb’ even with a sarcastic tone. You’re very wise!
It happens to me whenever i start to dress more elegant, i noticed that a part of my brain literally says to me: Who do you think you are to improve? And i feel voices in my head of people that when i was younger bullied me or tried to let me down whenever something good happened to me related to my external appearence. I observe this and try to journal to understand what's going on.
The clothes, exactly! I've changed my clothes to something more casual a million times because my mind started "you really think you're better than everyone" or the fear of giving the impression that I am more than who I actually am.
It is so easy to be a victim of self-sabotaging thoughts. It can be difficult to believe in your worth when you are putting yourself down, feel like an imposter, don't set boundaries, and make sacrifices only for others and never for yourself. When we let go of what is holding us back from living authentically and take back our thoughts, then we can be free and live #fearless. Thanks for this video!
This really spoke to me on a deep deep level. I try to understand who and what I am everyday and that leads to negative. I need to slow down the pace of this life and stop letting my mind speed it up. Thank you Lynette
It’s really a day by day thing I’m realizing, but being aware of what makes us the way we are makes a world of a difference. Wishing you the best on your journey❤️
I was literally just watching a TikTok video of Brianna Wiest, the author of “The Mountain Is You”, explaining self-sabotage and then suddenly your video pops up on my phone totally out of the blue. I feel like the universe is giving me some signs here and I couldn’t be more grateful for that! Also your video was so helpful, thank youu beautiful soul 🙏🏻♥️
😵 I literally experienced your exact example this morning… I sat down to journal and meditate and as soon as it came time to meditate my brain started saying, “well that’s an extra 15-20 minutes of productivity that you’re losing out on. You could just jump into work and get started right away”. I ended up being able to push through it and had the best meditation in a while! So crazy though that our mind does this!! Tries to convince us not to do what I actually really wanted to do this morning and looked forward to doing but my brain had other motives 😂 love this video topic!! ♥️
I've been talking to my ex and then I feel like I'm doing something so wrong just for thinking that I should talk to him. I've been doing inner work and changing myself for the best, and this was exactly what hits home.
hi i just wanted to say i'm a person who's currently learning to break through my bad habits and really start the journey to grow & heal. i've been watching your videos for the last couple of days and i just wanna say thank you. it gives me motivation to really break out of that cycle of being scared to start a yt channel or even other goals i have and it is much appreciated 💕
bruhhh I feel the same way... I was passing my 8 week (we had to set up our online equipment) so really 6 week C# summer class and I would legit let myself goof off and hang out with my friends and family and would feel guilty about not submitting my assignments and got behind. I luckily passed but my professor taught me a lesson "you are smarter than you give your self credit for " her words 🥺
I was avoiding this video cuz I didn’t want to watch it but I keep being pulled to watch it I’m glad I did thanks! “U r the observer of the 🍂 u r not the 🍁 “This video came at the right time!
Omg.. I've been avoiding it as well! I swear YT said, "NO..stop scrolling! YOU need to watch this NOW." All of Lynette vids been coming right on time for me✨
This was exactly my day yesterday…I started off the day so well and then one thing didn’t go right and I ended up watching TH-cam for 2 hours instead of doing my own thing. LOVE your content and the things you have to talk about!!
I really appreciate the way you keep it real with us! I'm self employed as well and that voice in my head telling me to quit even tho everything is going well is LOUD sometimes and no one really talks about it!
thank you for sharing! I felt like this last year when I was furloughed - suddenly I had so much time to work on goals - and I was self sabbotaging more than ever! Go easy on yourself, remind yourself you're in a new chapter and make sure you have some structure! I hope to join you soon on quitting the corporate 9-5 ❤️
It’s so easy to feel lost and uncomfortable when we have more time to work on what we want! So glad I’m not alone. Thank you and wishing you the best!!
Love this video today is my first day as a pescatarian & boy did I need this ...right on time thank u... I'm not the only one trying to meditate & a million thoughts start running threw my head..
I love your videos! Imposter syndrome and procrastination - ughhhh. I have to meditate to shake stuff off and ask myself "how can I do my future self a favour right now" and do that thing before I can talk myself out of it. It helps so much.
Hi Lynette, I come from Italy. Your videos are popular even overseas, so don't be so hard on yourself. You're working really hard and you're reaping the seedling you've planted in the past years. You're so young and for me It's INSANE watching a pure, gentle and kind human being doing what you do. You're doing great. Keep going girl. Shining beside you, always
extremely relatable and me to a T, idk what was going on with me and my procrastination with getting on social media but this just explained it , THANK YOU!!!
Close, I stare at my dreams as they approach. Gotta be patient and trust in God, He the coach. Temptations are takin a shortcut but I dont, cuz I aint trynna be almost when I get it Imma float. - The GOAT
Thank you for sharing this! I have a very tiny channel and I feel this way, but you have a big channel and feel this way! It's ironically encouraging. 🥰
I have been neglecting my spiritual work and being in survival mode bcs of my job and this came in my reccs and i saw angel numbers so I am so thankful for ur message
So.... I watched/listened to your video this morning before heading in to work. Guess what?!?!?! Your floating leaves/stream anology really worked for me! Thank you so much for just taking the time to make this video + all of the references and resources you gave during the video is so helpful. I've realized just in a 8-10hr span of watching this that being present in the NOW is definitely a muscle I want to strengthen to prevent derailing. Appreciate your content & sharing to everyone I know. 🌱
I’ve been putting off my self sabotage video for mental health Mondays for the past month and I’m actually self sabotage more this month than ever before so I really needed this video and I’m really excited to post my self sabotage video next Monday as well because it’s definitely a huge hurdle in my life that I’m ready to get over and I know a lot of other people have it too and I’m glad that you made this video and inspired me to just get over myself and post a video next week because I’ve put it off for so long and it’s definitely a topic that needs to be discussed.
Wow! I felt related to the first words you said. I quit my job being super excited to start a new job. Selling my own products from home and making it big. however, for some reason ever since I quit my job, my drive slowly started dying and I do not understand why. When I was working I said I was going to be doing so many things but for some reason I was not disciplined to do it. No more! I am tired of being lazy because I know I am capable of more than I can accomplish at the moment. I need to keep reaching for my goals. Thanks for these words.
Out of everything you said in this video, it was the ending that really hit home for me. The bit about slowing down and enjoying the journey. We'll spend longer on the journey than we will at the destination so we might as well make it a good one.
👏👏👏Amazing post and I've felt this way many times. What I realised is just got to do no matter what, even if we don't want to. Discipline is what changes lives. Its the key to a clean life. Its a daily struggle but KEEP GOING! YOU GOT THIS!
1:13 Girl, I agree! 😭😂 I like your tips. I write about my negative thoughts and experiences in my diary. After that, I'm less overwhelmed. In my journal, I design realistic solutions and recognize things that are under my control. Being smartly selfish it's helpful as well. I mean to work and earn just enough to survive and live according to my values or ideals. Stoicism and Schopenhauer's philosophy shape these strategies. That's what I do instead of therapy cause of lack of money (but I would like to go soon) 🙌
I wrote a blog post about this a while back, but I really liked what you said about negative thoughts that keep popping up need to be looked into, I didn't include that. really enjoyed this video ❤️
You’re almost reaching 100 thousand people and wondering, will my supports watch?😟 Yes we all are watching,🥳 don't doubt your gift or abilities. The Universe has blessed you with this career that you put in the work for. Your blessings are here just for you Lynette and to everyone else reading this, DO NOT GIVE UP ON YOURSELF!! When you having a burning desire for something, go after it ❤️🥳
best convo to start off the month of August! Thanks Lynette, love the points you made. Been watching you through COVID and be proud of how much you've grown! Like you said, it's about enjoying the process. Happy to say I'm enjoying the process, too. Sending you love and optimism!
Thank you for making this video. REAL TALK!! Rather than pretending like everything is perfect, or fabricating things to be a certain way, you are putting words to exactly what do many people are trying to deal with. Thank you for being real and talking about this stuff
This really helped me understand self sabotage and how it manifests for me. I’ve had such anxiety around the pandemic that I’ve built this protective bubble round my family and I don’t care about anything else. This has caused my work attendance to suffer and I’m probably at risk of losing my job. I’m determined to turn it around and hopefully keep this job for a while longer and learn how to prevent self sabotage in the future.
Hi ! I really admire your videos and they come at the perfect timing. As of right now, I'm learning to have a more positive outlook and let positives outweigh the negatives, because I noticed when I focus more on the negatives and constantly consumed by it, I get in this mindset where I think everything is wrong, everything is out of my control, and I want to just leave it there and let the negativity consume me and I end up wanting to sabotage myself and run away from everything but those thoughts are not true, and I have too much purpose to run away from everything. So I stop focusing on the negtatives ( yes, I'm aware of them but I don't let them control me) I let the positive thoughts replace each negative thought and let positivity drive me. That was a lot but I needed to get that off my chest and help other ppl that may be struggling to, I promise we both got this ❤.
why have I never heard anyone talk about this?? this is exactly what I needed to hear right now, it hit so right in the spot that it's crazy. thank you so much for sharing this info and your personal expirience with us
After many many years of trying to find the time and financial resources to make art and become an artist despite a debilitating physical condition (Endometriosis & Fibro), I finally made some great progress with stability and routine! I was anxious I was going to have to separate myself (temporarily) from what I built and my routines, and got into a car accident! Since I dont have insurance, after years of living on a tiny income and saving every penny so I can become an artist, I now will have $20k debt. It all just happened in a second when i was not present. Its brought up all the self sabotage feelings I held down and didnt address most of my life... it all hit me like a truck. EXACTLY when I was finally making progress :(:(
This girl is really good at making super clear, fluid and relatable/ informative videos. Its super impressive. Love you Lynette! super glad I found your channel. I feel like I relate to you so so much being the same age and everything. Crazy how internally we really are all going though almost the same thing even though our external worlds may be a little different.
This is exactly what i was feeling and i really needed someone to tell me this. Thank you soo much i just landed on your channel today idk howw. Maybe universe is seriously on my side and want to me better. Thank you soo muchh
Honestly, this video made me cry and im not so sure why, but I know this resonated with me if it can make me respond so emotionally. Thanks for sharing and I hope we all learn how to stop self-sabotaging.
Hell yeah! I literally have to remind myself of this all the time and do opposite action method, but it definitely helps. I work from home and am basically "on call" all hours of the day...there is down time and I get chores done too which is good, but I have a lot of time to think and have to an expert of redirecting my thoughts from fear towards love. All a balance, but keeping my own happiness is invaluable, even though it must be lost at times to be human.
Thank you for making this video. I keep making excuses and it needs to stop. I've signed up for the app, and I'm going to start meditating on a consistent basis!
Thank you so much for your advice - I really needed this. I've always struggled in getting stuck in that negative cycle and forgetting that I have to work hard spiritually to understand my mental health. I wish I understood this sooner, but better now than never. Let's continue to make and achieve promises everyday to work towards our ultimate goals. :)
Thank you so much for the video!!! Lately I've been feeling really unproductive and have been repeatedly self-sabotaging myself. It has been frustrating but i realized, as you already mentioned, that I just have to take things one step at a time and chill about it. What has really helped me is spending time with Jesus and just getting my mentality ready for the day. Thanks again for the video, it really helped me put things into perspective!!!
Your videos always hits the mark for me. Thank you for taking the time to send these messages out into the universe. I can tell how sincere and intentional you are
This video was so necessary for me, I'm on my senior year and I'm stressed as hell only hoping for this year to end, but I really need enjoy this journey and focus on myself. Thanks for being the messenger from the universe hahahaha
Woow this is soo accurate! I tend to self sabotage a lot, what helps me to come back to the present moment is meditation and yoga. Thanks for sharing Lynette ❤️

Just enjoyed my first energy cleanse Aura meditation. Thank you Lynette, this was a big motivation for me.
Damn nice to know I’m not the only one who feels this way. I’m tired of feeling bad about myself
Yesss we all have work to do!
🤗
Literally!!!
honestly 😩
Same😭
I’ve been reading the book The Mountain Is You and it’s all about self sabotaging behaviors and it’s a really great insightful read so far
Oooh adding this to my list
Damn I justtt saw that book last night and saved it to my wishlist last night. That’s a sign! Def gonna read
I've just finished The Mountain is You and 11/10 would recommend for anyone struggling with self sabotage! x
I will definitely be getting that book!
It’s always sold out but also have it on my wishlist!
Yo she’s almost at 100k
So close!😭
Wohoooo 🥳🥳🥳

It is so awesome we are aware this is happening though. There was a time when we were not aware at all 🤷🏻♀️ There is hope ☀️
12:19 sometimes the self-sabotage is because you are scared that something may be too good to be true like you said, but it could also be that you don't really want what you are working towards anymore.

Thank you for sharing this! I have a very tiny channel and I feel this way, but you have a big channel and feel this way! It's ironically encouraging. 🥰
I’m so glad! Definitely thought it would get easier with growth so it can be refreshing to know that it just comes to mindset
It's most important subject these days for me. Thank you for your detailed explanation.
I have been neglecting my spiritual work and being in survival mode bcs of my job and this came in my reccs and i saw angel numbers so I am so thankful for ur message
So.... I watched/listened to your video this morning before heading in to work. Guess what?!?!?! Your floating leaves/stream anology really worked for me! Thank you so much for just taking the time to make this video + all of the references and resources you gave during the video is so helpful. I've realized just in a 8-10hr span of watching this that being present in the NOW is definitely a muscle I want to strengthen to prevent derailing. Appreciate your content & sharing to everyone I know. 🌱
You made this video at the right time!!!
I’m so glad!!
I’ve been putting off my self sabotage video for mental health Mondays for the past month and I’m actually self sabotage more this month than ever before so I really needed this video and I’m really excited to post my self sabotage video next Monday as well because it’s definitely a huge hurdle in my life that I’m ready to get over and I know a lot of other people have it too and I’m glad that you made this video and inspired me to just get over myself and post a video next week because I’ve put it off for so long and it’s definitely a topic that needs to be discussed.
This whole video is me and I feel called out! But thanks for letting me know I'm not alone 😭🖤
Wow! I felt related to the first words you said. I quit my job being super excited to start a new job. Selling my own products from home and making it big. however, for some reason ever since I quit my job, my drive slowly started dying and I do not understand why. When I was working I said I was going to be doing so many things but for some reason I was not disciplined to do it. No more! I am tired of being lazy because I know I am capable of more than I can accomplish at the moment. I need to keep reaching for my goals. Thanks for these words.
Out of everything you said in this video, it was the ending that really hit home for me. The bit about slowing down and enjoying the journey. We'll spend longer on the journey than we will at the destination so we might as well make it a good one.
👏👏👏Amazing post and I've felt this way many times. What I realised is just got to do no matter what, even if we don't want to. Discipline is what changes lives. Its the key to a clean life. Its a daily struggle but KEEP GOING! YOU GOT THIS!
1:13 Girl, I agree! 😭😂 I like your tips. I write about my negative thoughts and experiences in my diary. After that, I'm less overwhelmed. In my journal, I design realistic solutions and recognize things that are under my control. Being smartly selfish it's helpful as well. I mean to work and earn just enough to survive and live according to my values or ideals. Stoicism and Schopenhauer's philosophy shape these strategies. That's what I do instead of therapy cause of lack of money (but I would like to go soon) 🙌
I wrote a blog post about this a while back, but I really liked what you said about negative thoughts that keep popping up need to be looked into, I didn't include that. really enjoyed this video ❤️
You’re almost reaching 100 thousand people and wondering, will my supports watch?😟 Yes we all are watching,🥳 don't doubt your gift or abilities. The Universe has blessed you with this career that you put in the work for. Your blessings are here just for you Lynette and to everyone else reading this, DO NOT GIVE UP ON YOURSELF!! When you having a burning desire for something, go after it ❤️🥳
This popped up at the PERFECT TIME. I swear you have no idea how much you’ve impacted my life
best convo to start off the month of August! Thanks Lynette, love the points you made. Been watching you through COVID and be proud of how much you've grown! Like you said, it's about enjoying the process. Happy to say I'm enjoying the process, too. Sending you love and optimism!
It’s like this video was made for exactly me! I self sabotage all the time! I make myself believe that I can’t do or can’t be certain things!
Thank you for making this video. REAL TALK!! Rather than pretending like everything is perfect, or fabricating things to be a certain way, you are putting words to exactly what do many people are trying to deal with. Thank you for being real and talking about this stuff
This really helped me understand self sabotage and how it manifests for me. I’ve had such anxiety around the pandemic that I’ve built this protective bubble round my family and I don’t care about anything else. This has caused my work attendance to suffer and I’m probably at risk of losing my job. I’m determined to turn it around and hopefully keep this job for a while longer and learn how to prevent self sabotage in the future.
i am absolutely lovin u delving in2 spirituality + walking in ur purpose alongside everything
We LOVE a wise queen!
Hi ! I really admire your videos and they come at the perfect timing. As of right now, I'm learning to have a more positive outlook and let positives outweigh the negatives, because I noticed when I focus more on the negatives and constantly consumed by it, I get in this mindset where I think everything is wrong, everything is out of my control, and I want to just leave it there and let the negativity consume me and I end up wanting to sabotage myself and run away from everything but those thoughts are not true, and I have too much purpose to run away from everything. So I stop focusing on the negtatives ( yes, I'm aware of them but I don't let them control me) I let the positive thoughts replace each negative thought and let positivity drive me. That was a lot but I needed to get that off my chest and help other ppl that may be struggling to, I promise we both got this ❤.
why have I never heard anyone talk about this?? this is exactly what I needed to hear right now, it hit so right in the spot that it's crazy. thank you so much for sharing this info and your personal expirience with us
After many many years of trying to find the time and financial resources to make art and become an artist despite a debilitating physical condition (Endometriosis & Fibro), I finally made some great progress with stability and routine! I was anxious I was going to have to separate myself (temporarily) from what I built and my routines, and got into a car accident! Since I dont have insurance, after years of living on a tiny income and saving every penny so I can become an artist, I now will have $20k debt. It all just happened in a second when i was not present. Its brought up all the self sabotage feelings I held down and didnt address most of my life... it all hit me like a truck. EXACTLY when I was finally making progress :(:(
omg I've been doing this RECENTLY this video came at the PERFECT TIME
This girl is really good at making super clear, fluid and relatable/ informative videos. Its super impressive. Love you Lynette! super glad I found your channel. I feel like I relate to you so so much being the same age and everything. Crazy how internally we really are all going though almost the same thing even though our external worlds may be a little different.
Wow so relatable right now, but I’m going to fight it and get things done ✅
Yesss you got this!!
@@LynetteAdkins thanks lovely!
I absolutely LOVE your page. It's helping me to start my morning on a high vibrational, loving note ☺️🙏🏿💫
YOU are me, me is you! you nailed it for especially that silly voice inside. Thanks for this.
This is exactly what i was feeling and i really needed someone to tell me this. Thank you soo much i just landed on your channel today idk howw. Maybe universe is seriously on my side and want to me better. Thank you soo muchh
Honestly, this video made me cry and im not so sure why, but I know this resonated with me if it can make me respond so emotionally. Thanks for sharing and I hope we all learn how to stop self-sabotaging.
I'm so glad it resonated! Sometimes we hear things exactly when we need it. We got this!
This video was much needed. I have a tendency to self sabotage, to talk down on myself as an actor. Thank you for this
Hell yeah! I literally have to remind myself of this all the time and do opposite action method, but it definitely helps. I work from home and am basically "on call" all hours of the day...there is down time and I get chores done too which is good, but I have a lot of time to think and have to an expert of redirecting my thoughts from fear towards love. All a balance, but keeping my own happiness is invaluable, even though it must be lost at times to be human.
Literally me, OMG!!
Thank you for this video!
Thank you for making this video. I keep making excuses and it needs to stop. I've signed up for the app, and I'm going to start meditating on a consistent basis!
You got this! I’m so glad this was helpful ❤️
Thank you so much for your advice - I really needed this. I've always struggled in getting stuck in that negative cycle and forgetting that I have to work hard spiritually to understand my mental health. I wish I understood this sooner, but better now than never. Let's continue to make and achieve promises everyday to work towards our ultimate goals. :)
I swear I thought I was the only odd human that did this😭 Good to know we are not alone♥️
Thank you for showing my I am capable
Thank you youtube for recommending me to Lynette Adkins channel :)
Thanks for this video. I go through this daily.
Your self help and spirituality videos are my absolute fav ❤
Shoutout to how the editing has skyrocketed📈 in one video 👏 Kudos
Thank you!!
This was amazing. The specific recommendations are spot on!
Thank you so much for the video!!! Lately I've been feeling really unproductive and have been repeatedly self-sabotaging myself. It has been frustrating but i realized, as you already mentioned, that I just have to take things one step at a time and chill about it. What has really helped me is spending time with Jesus and just getting my mentality ready for the day.
Thanks again for the video, it really helped me put things into perspective!!!
Also, you're really pretty🤭
your timing was impeccable, ly x
Your videos always hits the mark for me. Thank you for taking the time to send these messages out into the universe. I can tell how sincere and intentional you are
The leaf analogy was so simple but so useful. I’m going to try and implement this in my day to day life 🤎✨
This was needed! I struggle with feeling like i have no time to meditate and then do other things def trying aura.
This is me help me
I didn't getto hear all your video yet, but from the 1st 2 minutes you described my mornings so ill be back to finish.
This video was so necessary for me, I'm on my senior year and I'm stressed as hell only hoping for this year to end, but I really need enjoy this journey and focus on myself. Thanks for being the messenger from the universe hahahaha
