Is your past self getting in the way of the future version of you?

Perhaps you’re allowing past choices to preserve a defeatist attitude about certain things. Or your past could be preventing you from challenging yourself in transformative ways that can create your future. And the worst part is you might be unaware that you’re punishing yourself in this way.

While the past can’t be changed, there is still something you can do about it. And it starts with an awareness of why you punish yourself in this way, how to recognize the signs, and how to stop so the “future you” can finally unfold.

In this episode of Time to Level Up, you’ll learn about how the past can prevent you from accessing the big thinking you need to move forward.
