What's Your Self-Sabotage
Pattern?
Take this 3-minute quiz to discover the pattern most likely to be getting in your way, and what you can start doing differently.
Maybe you overthink every decision. Say yes when you want to say no. Take on everything yourself. Put off something you know you need to deal with. Wait until you feel more confident making a move. Or keep giving a person or situation one more chance. You may already know what to do. The harder question is:
Why do I keep doing it?
There may be a reason you keep repeating the same behaviors, even when you know they're not working for you.
This quiz will help you identify the pattern, understand why it may be getting in your way, and see where you can begin doing things differently.
Your Results Will Reveal
- Your dominant self-sabotage pattern
- How it may be affecting your relationships, confidence, decisions, and everyday life
- The second pattern that may be working alongside it
- What you can start doing differently to build more confidence and self-trust
