I know I have to take %100 responsibility, but:

1) Boring

2) Procrastinating

3) Laziness

4) Loss of motivation

5) Maybe some distractions

6) Daily work drains me

7) People around me are not very brillant

 

Results:

A bit overweight

Watching TV, News

Books are waiting to read

unfinished projects

unfulfilled life

- spending too much time in my head thinking and planning.

- impatience to improve, i wanna go too fast sometimes and get burned out as result after overdoing it happened multiple times now and maybe i got wiser finally and take my time.

- fear of failure.

i'm happy tho this is no top 10 anymore as would be the case some 5 years ago so i did improve, these 3 are still things to work on and the hardest to overcome.

 That is exactly what I was thinking!!! I feel to name obstacles is to give them power within my psyche. I prefer to pass them by without recognition.

@egoeimai Well, do it then.  I'm curious.  I wanna see what people's blocks are to compare them with my own.  I've got some big ones, as I've plainly shown.

@abundance You did a good job!  Print this out and put it your personal development folder.  This is very useful for you.  This is the key to your growth for now.  A useful map.

I think I have found the answer.  3 weeks later.  None of these obstacles are real.  They don't exist in reality.  Correct me if I'm wrong.  Basically I was under an illusion.  There is no self to be constrained.  There is no free will.

For me, lack of entitlement. By that I mean I feel discomfort when somebody gives me a gift, a kiss, congratulations, I feel I dont deserve it .

Also of course fear of succes. I think when you are identified as a mediocre guy when you become successful the mind thinks like that: This new situation is overwhelming, I dont know how to handle, Its not me...
