… now it’s your turn! What’s a goal you’ve had. What fear or belief is holding you back? Rewrite the narrative in a more empowering way 💪

🥅 Goal: (e.g. *I want to start exercising*)
⛔ Unconscious saboteur: (e.g. *I fear looking weak*)
👉 Conscious mind: (e.g. *I’m capable of change, and the results will come in time*)

I've suffered from clinical anxiety and depression for most of my life. One day while doing yard work I saw a tree ensnared in vines suffocating it. I realized that was me, my own growth as a person was stunted by this vine of mental illness. I realized that my depression and anxiety are not who I am and I can chop down those creeping vines when I make the conscious decision to acknowledge how I feel and choose to not let them sabotage me and my growth as a person. Thanks for making the content the world really needs! ❤

Sadia hits me with so many wise truths in such a gentle way I can actually comprehend!!

[priyarachel]

I use the 2 minute rule from James Clear's book when I don't feel like doing something I know I should. He says that doing something for just two minutes every day is vital to forming a habit.

[SelfCompassion]

"We create obstacles to justify our poor performance or lack of effort"... you just summarized my life in one sentence.

[Bydaisysandiego]

Our own self high expectations make us feel like we failed before we have even started. "Focus on progress not perfection" Thank you Sadia for this

[colourrain]

This is such timely advice. I have been putting off job applications for a long while now because I keep assuming I will be rejected before ever even applying. And I think this stems from a degree of imposter syndrome. I also have so many personal project ideas I’ve been sitting on for years which I’m too afraid/lazy to start. This video is an excellent reminder for me to capitalise on those waves of inspiration and just go for it. Thank you Sadia!!

Sadia, I have been using your clips in my classroom in Vancouver for the last two years, and you have made a difference in my student's lives. Thank you for being such an amazing role model. BTW - we love seeing images of our hometown in your videos!

[Taraclellandjones]

Sadie, thank you. I have made a career out of self sabotage. I ballooned up to 500+pounds just by thinking I am not worthy. 6 years of this prison. I am on the road to a beautiful painless life 100 pounds down. Just by being accountable and positive. Thank you for bringing this to light and reminded me I can still do this….it is hard as Hell. ❤️

Hey Sadia, thank you for this video. I had a crippling fear of driving. At 30 I finally learned how to drive, got my license and bought a car. It’s made my life so much easier. It took so many years to change “I can’t” to “I am capable”. My life has dramatically improved because of this. Love your videos ❤

The quote: "I'm going to focus on progress, not perfection" hit me deep. I've always been an anxious person. Scared of what the future brings. Thought I wasn't good enough or never will be good enough. That has stopped me from doing so many things. This year I promised myself to at least try it. And if I fail it's still progress. Maybe I wasn't perfect but I still tried and that's what makes me feel better. Thank you Sadia and the Pick up Limes Team for this inspiring video :) I would love to see more of those ;)

[amandah]

The overthinking it part hit me. I overthink everything and maybe I just need to start and don’t worry about it being perfect, just the progress is enough

[VanessaEllyanne]

''Don't waste time doubting yourself. Just go for it!'' Love this!

[edamouavang]

I needed this message today. I’ve been overthinking all night and sobbed all night. I couldn’t function at work. I came home early to take a long nap and ate. I watched this video and now have a different perspective on my situation. Thank you.

Can you please make a podcast channel?? Your voice is soooo soothing to listen to. I love episodes like these ❤ Thank you!

I haven’t lost my pregnancy weight in 15 years. I have learned that I sabotage myself my shaming myself and by placing everyone above me. I am learning to decrease my “people pleasing “ tendencies. It really saves me time and energy to know or reframe what I have done and say “That’s all I have to give, I need to save my strength and energy to love myself.”

[agnieszkawiszewska]

I feel so strongly EVERY word said here... Some years ago I found out that my children were not "difficult" and I was not "a bad parent", but they are autistic with adhd. Trying to understand them and myself more, I went for my own diagnosis and discovered I am autistic, with adhd. This explained my life and their lives, but gave my unconsciousness a lot of excuses and self-doubt, tons of ways of sabbotaging myself... Even after making lots of decisions for the good of my family and my own, and after I managed to find in my life things that inspire me, I was still saying to myself how much I cannot do, because... Sometimes things I would never said to myself in my 20s or even 30s... Thank you for stating it clearly and repeating that you go to therapist, because when I decided I want to leave my job, homeschool my youngest and enter doTerra business, I started my therapy. Today I chat a lot with my consciousness and unconsciousness... And here I am... managing both and still going for what's best for us... Thank you for this wonderful message... I feel that I will be coming back to this many times...

Didn't realize how much I needed this today! Thanks (as always) for the break to take a breath, slow down, and reflect. Time to get out of my way!

[emmarumsby]

i so needed this video today. i've been putting off my uni assignment, i've convinced myself i can't do it, even thought i've been doing them for 6 years now lol. only because my last one i didn't get the score i wanted, i kind of feel i've given up, i'm really cruel with myself. i've been saying thing to myself like "i'm clearly not as smart as i thought i was" " i bet everyone else is doing well, apart from me because i'm useless" "ill never amount to anything, because i'm simply not good enough" my brain is driving me crazy with this nasty self talk, but i don't know how to stop it. noone has ever believed in me either, so i don't really have or had supportive people around me. one of the reasons i love your videos, you inspire me to do better.

Sadia, it's Holi today on 7th March in India when I am writing this, and there's a ritual here where we pray that all the negativity in our life burns away making room for the colours of life. I came back from the ritual and I saw this video. It honestly touched me very deeply as to all the aspects you discussed and I can really feel from within that I can really do the things I always wanted to do. So well let's go straight to the objective right!
I want to work on myself - nurturing every aspect of my existence - the physical, emotional, mental, spiritual, psychological, philosophical - every aspect of mine with utmost care. I used to care less about me. I didn't feel that I could be fit, or I should indulge in self care but now I know ! I will workout ( I have already started & I am enjoying), elevate my diet standards ( taking help from your videos ) fix my schedule, meditate, travel, socialise, read books and learn every fine thing the world has to offer!!

I am working and I will strengthen on my career. I will always try to skill up, searching for your ways to do things, taking a sustainable yet innovative approach. Being in touch with reality yet developing it for the better is my objective!

I want to do things for my family and all the people I love and well if possible, for the world & nature as well. I deserve to and I want to be loved. I already feel fortunate that there's not too much bother in my life but yes, I want to grow more on love, I want to make the people around me feel loved.

Well, exams are coming by, I am prepping up for them, I will smash them with finesse. I will prepare well and won't be afraid on my capabilities and do great on the exams in career or life!

I feel so happy to hear your thoughts. You are Robin's love is serene and a bliss. I wish the goodness protects you.

So well, Time to enact!! See ya :)

I wish that whenever if ever I see this comment again, I am at a better place. If anyone else sees this comment, I hope they do super good! 😃💫
