I really want to get a better paying job but can’t seem to get my act together – maybe this could help!
I would love to read this because I am sort of at a stand-still in my life. Thanks!!!
I’m sure I sabotage myself. From sandbagging, to being overly perfectionistic and thus never starting or finishing, to being afraid to fail and thus never trying – I’m like this all the time, and even knowing it, I don’t know how to get out of it! She has names for most of those, it seems. And the Deserve Level thing – wow. I totally identify with that – I’m always keeping myself back with thoughts about “why should *I* get special treatment, I don’t deserve it”. Wow. Uncanny.
I want to read this because I know I sabotage myself, but I’m not sure why or how to stop it. Thanks for the chance to win!
After reading your review, I believe we all self-sabotage. The first step to change is self-awareness or mindfulness of what we do. I would love to win this book. Thanks for the chance to do that!

I’m guilty of self sabotaging.

Anything to help improve what I need to that helps me feel better about myself is an improvement.

Ha, Well when I just told my family about this they all shouted that thats exactly what I need to read. Apparently I have a problem…oops.
Could use any of these.
I am going through some transition right now so this book might be what I need in order to get everything in order.
Because I need help in this area, and it sounds relevant to my struggle to be more positive with myself.
I would like to win because I have a hard time curbing my self-sabotage. The more I see, watch myself and learn the less this will occur.
My problem is money–I know my value but I don’t ask for it when negotiating for a job.
I would like to win this book for my friend (no, really) b/c she is a self-proclaimed master of self-sabotage. I’ve seen her in action and she well deserves the title! My self-sabotaging has another title: I call it procrastination.
I would like to win this because I think it could help me improve my life. What more can you ask for….
Interesting book. I definitely need help here.
