Self Sabotage: Causes - Fear of Success

Most of us fear change or the unknown. To succeed might mean making big changes in our lives. We might live differently, have different friends, move in different circles, and be expected to dress and behave differently. It might drastically change the dynamics of our marriages and families. This can be scary. Failure may make us unhappy, but at least it is familiar, comfortable. We may sabotage our efforts to succeed in order to stay where we are. There may be a part of us who likes where we are and feels comfortable there.
