Get out of your own way. It’s something virtually all of us have heard before, but really…how many of us heed that advice? It could be a new job, wanting to start up a business, taking a trip, losing some weight or even asking that person we’re interested in out on a date---sometimes we’re so busy thinking about what could go wrong that we never make a move. That's really sad because without taking risks, we’re never able to see all that we’re capable of. 

And guess what? You’re capable of doing A LOT!

In order to get to what you really want in life, you’ve first got to pay attention to your stumbling blocks. If you know you’re not as successful as you want to be but you can’t put your finger on what the problem is, ask yourself if the following habits could be what’s been holding you back all this time.

About Shellie Reneé

Just a woman who digs all things relationships. HEALTHY RELATIONSHIPS, that is. I've been writing (professionally) for close to 20 years, including having two books published. I'm also a marriage life coach and doula. Sometimes I speak to large audiences or do radio interviews, but usually I'm sitting in my favorite chair, surfin' the 'net and penning stuff that I wish I had read in my early 20s.

Listen, I don't have all the answers, not by a LOOOOONG shot. But whatever I can do to spare folks any heartbreak, bitterness or straight-up drama, I'll devote some keystrokes to doing. 

That's it...in a nutshell. For the most part. Kinda. ;)
