When your boss asks for a status update, what's your inner monologue?

It would be perfect if I had one more week

I signed up to help accounting, so… busy

You planned a Saturday workout. What actually happens?

Only if the playlist and outfit are right

A friend adds two classes and I say yes to both

I decide to bake cookies instead

I’ll start after watching one more episode

I spend an hour mad about the membership fees

A stranger offers you your dream job. What's your first thought?

Are you sure you have the right person?

I'm not quite ready for this yet

A friend asks for help moving on the one free evening you blocked off. You say…

Of course, I'll bring snacks too

Sure, but let me research the best lifting technique

I'll be there, just let me finish this one thing

As long as we're not doing this in silence

I'll try, but I'm not that strong

Your desk is a mess. What’s your strategy?

It's fine, I know where everything is

I reorganize and tell everyone about it

Your calendar alert pops for a dentist appointment you forgot. Reaction?

I remember I have plans that day

Time to find a better dentist first

The timing on this alert is terrible

I confirm it and book an eye test too

Which phrase would likely be on your custom coffee mug?

Probably mediocre but caffeinated

I can do it, and that, and that

Your browser tabs right now look like…

Something I definitely need to respond to

The same page in 12 different tabs

You’re given a blank journal. First page becomes…

A list of spontaneous getaway ideas

Favorite part of planning a vacation?

Fitting in as many stops as possible

Convincing myself I can’t afford it

You see a typo in your social post after it’s live.

I leave a disclaimer in the comments

What's your signature move in a group project?

Redoing everyone's slides at midnight

Joining late but full of energy

Going quiet when things get tense

Doing the work, not taking credit

EXPLAINED: Your self sabotage pattern | Vintage Vibes

Chances are, you’ve been your own worst enemy at least once – probably more than once.

Well, it doesn’t always look dramatic. Sometimes it’s putting something off until the moment has passed. Other times, it’s taking on so much that nothing actually gets done. Then there’s being busy all the time without actually finishing anything.

There are six patterns that tend to show up most often – and most people have one they keep coming back to without even noticing.

Go through the 28 questions and find out how you self-sabotage.
