Harper Stop Self-Sabotage: Six Steps to Unlock Your True Motivation, Harness Your Willpower, and Get Out of Your Own Way

Bad product

if I had known that the whole book premise or that the example she was going to use through out the book is a middle aged fat lady who can't loose weight...then I probably wouldn't have bought this book. I haven't been able to get past the first chapter because the example is soooo lame! it makes it a drag to read.

Well worth the money

I've been struggling with imposter-syndrome and self-sabotage for a long time. It's one of those phenomenon that you KNOW it's happening, and you KNOW it's not good for you...you KNOW what you're supposed to do instead. Yet try as you might, you can't seem to break free from the grips.That's why I'm so grateful for Dr. Judy Ho's book. She gives a step by step breakdown of how to get out of those old, familiar habits you know are bad for you (and your success) so you can finally stop sabotaging your own dreams.It's work, with insights and assessments every step of the way. In this book, you'll learn how to identify and deactivate self-sabotage triggers, then how to replace them with better habits, and how to create a blueprint for real change.If you find yourself in a constant pattern of doubt that keeps you from taking action in your career, your business, or your dreams, then you need this book. Confidence is not enough to break the cycle on its own.

I am so happy that Dr. Judy Ho has developed this book to shine a light on how often we self-sabotage so many areas of our lives. Dr. Ho’s thought provoking and thorough exercises shine awareness to what influenced our self- sabotaging behavior and guides us on how we can empower ourselves to stop.I am a Psychotherapist who has been in private practice for over 15 years and so many of the examples Dr. Ho has in this book are so similar to the people I see daily. I really like the 4 elements of L.I.F.E and how it helps identify many of the reasons on how we began self-sabotaging and continue doing it without our knowledge.I personally love the explanations and exercises and wish there had been such a practical book as “Stop Self-Sabotage” when I was in therapy years ago dealing with my internalized negative beliefs, fears, and need to control that resulted in my self-sabotaging numerous things in my life. As I began to read the book, it was real eye opener for me to see that lately I have fallen into these old thoughts and behaviors, and I challenged myself to look at myself. I have been doing the exercises in this book and taking my time as she suggests so I can really set the foundation for change. Those childhood internalized beliefs can really sneak up on one especially in challenging times.This is defiantly a book I am referring to my clients. So many come to my office with so many triggers, distorted thinking, fears, low self-esteem, etc., and once they have an understanding of the root of their self-sabotaging behavior they begin to do the work to change. This book reinforces that one can transform ourselves positively if we get out of our way, be honest with ourselves, and do the hard work. Dr. Judy Ho has done the scientifically proven work for us by giving us the six steps in this great book, nothing is easy, now you have to follow the exercises that take thought and time… but I am telling you as a person who is always wanting to better myself, and as a therapist that is passionate to experience the happiness of my clients…this is a must read book. It’s a book one can refer back to for years to keep us in check.
