11. What stops me from being motivated and how can I overcome these obstacles?
You know yourself better than anyone else. This is what is truly holding you back. List your biggest fear, and immediately confront it. Fear paralyzes us with indecision and can make it nearly impossible to take action. Visualize yourself as unafraid and confront your fear.
