The Ultimate List of Excuses That Will Stop You From Succeeding in Life

People who do not succeed have one common trait…
They all know the reasons why they CANNOT do what they desire to do… They have a list of excuses that is stopping them from succeeding in business and in life. 

Having reasons, excuses or alibis is totally normal. We are wired to protect ourselves from “Potential Threat” but having these Limiting Beliefs in our life and business will not benefit us in any way at all. The habit of making excuses and finding reasons why we can’t do what we have to do is detrimental to your journey to success. 

The real question is…
Are you going to let these excuses and reasons stop you from building the life you really want?

Go through the list and see what are the limiting beliefs that are holding you back.

Be aware of those things and Task Your Mind to think of solutions to eliminate those excuses and reasons so you can start living the life you want.

Here is a list that I compiled from my coaching clients, from my personal development journey and from conversations I had with our students.

REMEMBER: These reasons, excuses or alibis may be real and true for you right now but Always keep in mind that these are also a product of your imagination. Whatever your reasons are, it can either move you towards your goal or cause you to get “stuck” in your current situation.

My purpose for writing this is to remind you that you have unlimited potential and to remind you that…

“YOU WILL ALWAYS GET WHAT YOU FOCUS ON.”

You can either focus on your reasons why you will succeed or you CAN focus on the reasons why you CANNOT. As long as you are aware of the conversations you are having with yourself, you will begin to notice that it becomes easier to refocus your mind to what makes you amazing.

You are not alone. Sometimes, it’s hard to focus on what makes us great and it takes other people to believe in us more than we believe in ourselves.
