John Assaraf calls out excusitis, the habit of blaming circumstances instead of taking action. He walks through how self-doubt feeds the pattern and gives you a fill-in-the-blank exercise to name and challenge your specific excuses.
Foreign hey, this is John Asraf and today I want to share with you some thoughts around self doubt and how it can sabotage your efforts to live an exceptional life that I believe you deserve. Most people tend to have what I call as excusitis which is an inflammation disease. However, excusitis is the disease of having too many excuses. And many, many people have excuses as to why they haven't yet achieved their goals that they want to achieve in their life up until now. And when you think about why do you really have excuses? The reason is because somewhere underneath the surface you don't believe that you can be successful in the way that you want to be. The excuse just makes you feel better and allows you to deflect the real issue at hand. But here's what you probably don't know. You're not alone and you do have the ability to be as successful as anybody out there. Most of the problem of excusitis and making excuses stems from you buying into the self doubt and allowing self doubt to control how you think, what you feel and what you do. But you can make a decision right now to challenge your self doubts and not buy into it by controlling your thought process. So let's try something together. Okay? What I'd like you to do is think about this. Fill in the blank to this sentence. The reason I haven't yet achieved my goals and dreams and is and fill in the blank. So you may have come up with filling in the blank with the reason I haven't achieved my goals and dreams is I'm not smart enough, I'm not good enough, I don't have the knowledge, I don't have the skills. I'm too young, I'm too old, I'm too this or too that. Once you recognize the excuse that you're giving, that's when you can start asking yourself is that excuse a real valid reason for me to have self doubt? And if the answer is yes, then ask them what can you do to eliminate that self doubt, that reason or that excuse from the behaviors that you need to take to achieve the goals and dreams that you want.
