Self-Sabotage, Self-Forgiveness & Why the Way You Talk to Yourself Is Everything

  The reframing of self-sabotage from "lack of discipline" to "avoidance of uncomfortable emotions" hits the core of why so many routines collapse. Most people double down on strict habits when they fail, but addresssing the urge to run away from regret or shame is what actually breaks the cycle of all-or-nothing thinking.

  I have been watching your videos for a few days. When I thought I was going to sort out my life, Allah extended a helping hand to me through you. Your words will help me move forward. Sometimes I get frustrated and feel like nothing will happen to me. I may not be able to do anything for my parents. I may not have studied or achieved any qualifications. But maybe God has arranged my life differently. But I always think that Allah is with me. Allah knows everything and sees everything. He will help me. He is enough for me. Please pray for me. May I love myself and be happy for myself. And I can do something for my family. So that they are proud of me. Thank you very much. May Allah give you something good.❤

  Allah showed me this video as it was really needed i was really stuck in this loop of dopamine consumption to self sabotaging and then again falling into the addiction of dopamine for venting, but this episode was actually a big reminder for me and a sign from God Alhamdulillah May Allah grant you endless reward for this kind message😭💖

  What is this timing! Today I had a presentation to deliver, usually I&apos;m comfortable with public speaking and I was so confident but today it just didn&apos;t go well. Somehow it made me feel that I have lost my academic spark, maybe I lack knowledge and all of that stuff was going on but then I prayed talked to Allah and then I realised I was self sabotaging myself all throughout <br>So yess great timing ❤

  Hii Leana 💕 &nbsp;This video made me cry. I’ve always been someone who has issues dealing with her emotions and I’m not even entirely sure when and how this started, was it from birth, was it a product of my environment? But, after finding you on YouTube like a year or two ago which was honestly by Allah, I realised how much damage I had been doing to myself all these years and you’ve been like an older sister to me, showing how to love myself again. I’m still struggling with how to figure life out as I’m sure you are too but you are honestly the biggest inspiration for me in this current world we live in. I’ve been reading all the comments and I’m glad I’m not the only one who feels like this, your authenticity, your passion and the way you use your gifts from God are visible to all of us 💕 May Allah always put barakah in life and in your videos which make the world seem a better place, Ameen ❤ <br><br>I also wanted to mention to anyone reading this, that If you have trouble journaling your true feelings because they seem haywire and you can’t really seem to understand them, or perhaps you feel a bit odd writing them down, try writing them from a perspective of a character. That’s helped me a lot through my years as a teenager even when I had been self sabotaging I did this before knowing about journaling and now sometimes when idk how to put my emotions into sentences beginning with “I”, I instead use a character and use third person. I’m not sure if it helps because it allows me to dissociate so I can think more logically about my next steps or some other reason, but it does help, and I hope whoever is reading this and is going to use it, it’ll help you too 💕<br><br>Thank you to all who read this, I don’t really write comments often but idk I just felt like I had to, I hope what I’ve written helps inshaAllah💕

  Thank you thank you. Today is my birthday &amp; I have been doing nothing but self sabotaging, this year has broke me in so many ways I was no longer able to show up the way I used to. I let everything overcome me. But it’s time get back up. I’m 27 today &amp; I am ready to forgive myself 💗

  I think sometimes we’re so focused on what went wrong that we forget how far we’ve already come. This was a really good reminder. 🤍
