Book excerpt: Many of us find ourselves starting yet never finishing projects or we are continuously trying to improve ourselves. Even though many of us keep the end goal in mind and know that we will be happy once we reach the goal something stops us from finishing. That "something" is often self sabotage. In Get Out of Your Own Way, 21 Days to Stop Self Sabotage the author outlines what self sabotage is, how it shows up in our personal and professional lives, and the "why" behind it. The author also outlines the steps to identify behaviors that lead to sabotage, steps to stop the behavior and ends with a plan to help readers create their 21 day plan to stop self sabotage. Brittany A Johnson, is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) who in her private practice has spent many years working with clients on identifying their sabotaging patterns and teaching clients how to stop them and live the lives they desire.
