INTERNAL CONFLICTS - self-sabotage, internal splitting, resistance - these are well-known psychological problems. They can influence the success of life, cause fears, doubts, lack of confidence and other problems. Therefore, it is very important to recognize them in yourself, work through them and eliminate them in order to continue moving towards your goals and achieve the success you deserve.
Internal splitting is the division of thoughts, feelings and behavior into several “personalities” that compete with each other. In a situation where a person needs to make a choice between two equivalent options and each of them has both positive and negative sides, he may encounter an internal split in the psyche.For example, one part of you says that you need to take care of yourself, the other says that you should help everyone. And you feel like you can't find the right path to move forward.
For example, a person at the crossroads of life decides whether to quit his current job and start doing what he loves or stay at a job where he already has experience and good earnings. He may not understand what he really wants because his mind and emotions are pulling him in different directions. In this case, there is an internal division of the psyche, which can lead to anxiety, depression and hypersensitivity.
Self-sabotage is a state where we interfere with ourselves. We continue our usual actions if we believe that they will help us achieve success. Or when we think we are not smart enough or loved enough. To work through these problems, you need to make a list of your life attitudes and make sure that they are true. You may need to change these attitudes to others that will support your growth and development.
Resistance is a state where we do not want to move forward, even if we know that it is necessary. This happens when we are afraid of change or afraid of failure.
For example, a person needs to start playing sports to maintain health, but he feels internal resistance and cannot bring himself to start exercising. Or he needs to change something in his life, stop smoking, eat healthy food, but he cannot bring himself to do it. In such a situation, it may be due to habits, fear of change or lack of motivation.
In general, internal resistance of the psyche is a conflict between what we should do and our internal experiences that prevent us from doing it. Ultimately, it is important to see all these problems in yourself, work through them and eliminate them in order to achieve success and not slow yourself down.©️
