There are a lot of things that can hold you back when you are in a relationship or even in life. Don't let them! Live your life and really get to know yourself. Below are some of the top things that hold me back – don't let it happen to you. ## 1. Your Way of Thinking ![Your Way of Thinking](https://img.allw.mn/content/p8/i5/rzjz53au56e4ab0572a8e612826070_500x250.gif) You have a way that you think and you make a hell of a lot of assumptions about a hell of a lot of things. That can weigh you down a lot – it does me all of the time. ## 2. The Person That You Think Other People Want You to Be ![The Person That You Think Other People Want You to Be](https://img.allw.mn/content/g6/l9/pmqbehtr56e4ab531e0a2731353862_500x254.gif) This holds me back a hell of a lot time too. People expect me to be a rockstar, expect me to be reliable, expect me to be anything but what I want to be. ## 3. Life is a 'dress Rehearsal' ![Life is a 'dress Rehearsal'](https://img.allw.mn/content/ez/bf/ckvy2ca856e4ab9366fee448800778_500x281.gif) If you constantly think that you are 'preparing' for life, you'll never actually live. ## 4. The Fear of Discomfort ![The Fear of Discomfort](https://img.allw.mn/content/ns/s8/l4mvxe9056e4abbcc85f4893980658_500x277.gif) You've got to get over the discomfort of life. Seriously. Life is out there and it's uncomfortable. ## 5. Your past Failures ![Your past Failures](https://img.allw.mn/content/ie/hg/xp36mg4556e4ac134045b730767399_500x280.gif) You cannot dwell on the past. It doesn't do anything but hold you back. ## 6. The Habits You've Developed ![The Habits You've Developed](https://img.allw.mn/content/rk/z1/xbb4u5lz56e4ac35811ef470919986_500x255.gif) Remember #1? The way you think? This is the same thing. Ditch some of those habits you have; they are holding you back. ## 7. All the Useless Information You're Being Stuffed with ![All the Useless Information You're Being Stuffed with](https://img.allw.mn/content/mj/k2/ejjodagg56e4aed79ce15068672393_500x375.gif) In this day and age, we have so much information being thrown at us, it's hard to shut our brains off. Ditch the useless information and make time for yourself and your partner. ## 8. False Beliefs ![False Beliefs](https://img.allw.mn/content/t3/xr/awbn90eb56e4ac6e15945932005346_500x281.gif) There are some beliefs that you might be clinging onto that actually have no facts behind them. Let them go! ## 9. All the Negative Friends ![All the Negative Friends](https://img.allw.mn/content/ww/dk/gwwv2j2k56e4ace2be61e079141611_500x280.gif) Oh my gosh, this is huge. If someone is constantly negative around you, get rid of them. You need positivity, not someone that is negative all the time. ## 10. The Need to Be Constantly Doing ![The Need to Be Constantly Doing](https://img.allw.mn/content/c6/p2/d9v01isv56e4adc354d20016405143_500x270.gif) Sometimes, you just need to chill. Sometimes, you need to not do anything. Be still for a while. ## 11. Your Parents Relationship ![Your Parents Relationship](https://img.allw.mn/content/g0/tx/m4z72fx756e4abe9aebf4522114174_500x275.gif) I constantly compare my marriage to my parents marriage – that isn't right. My marriage is so different and that's the way it should be. ## 12. The Way You Thought Your Life Would Be ![The Way You Thought Your Life Would Be](https://img.allw.mn/content/dl/rm/oreet26756e4ad5f60835436140786_499x322.gif) Yes, sure, you had a way that you thought your life would be. It might turn out that way or might not, but don't let that hold you back! ## 13. Greed ![Greed](https://img.allw.mn/content/wr/jw/nl92m07r56e4ad3363195651089676_500x250.gif) The need to have a ton of money, all of the love, everything to be perfect. Let that go! ## 14. Complacency ![Complacency](https://img.allw.mn/content/u5/wk/qjbn9j7a56e4ae3fb1898064924115_500x246.gif) There are so many relationships that are ruined by this. Don't let it happen to you. ## 15. Is Stress a Bad Thing? ![Is Stress a Bad Thing?](https://img.allw.mn/content/bj/uq/utoxve4d56e4ae736246a045334159_498x280.gif) Stress is not always a bad thing - keep that in mind. ## 16. Poor Self Image ![Poor Self Image](https://img.allw.mn/content/ny/k4/k7g164i456e4ae91754f3746134437_540x249.gif) Your self image is the biggest thing that can hold you back. ## 17. Your Mental Health ![Your Mental Health](https://img.allw.mn/content/n1/lc/b18nq1p456e4aeaa2a334117791053_500x246.gif) And physical health. ## 18. Your past Partners ![Your past Partners](https://img.allw.mn/content/bf/dt/xs0xx87u56e4ac883196e197674727_500x281.gif) This is big. Your past can haunt you in many ways, especially when it comes to your previous partners. ## Related Posts - [thoughts of a man](https://love.allwomenstalk.com/the-right-man-will-make-you-think-these-happy-thoughts/) - [success what people think it looks like](https://inspiration.allwomenstalk.com/this-is-what-success-looks-like/) - [eyes too big for stomach](https://food.allwomenstalk.com/truths-youll-recognize-if-your-eyes-are-bigger-than-your-stomach/) - [things millenials like](https://lifestyle.allwomenstalk.com/millennials-are-sick-and-tired-of-hearing-these-things/) - [dennis prager happiness book](https://inspiration.allwomenstalk.com/what-you-can-learn-from-happiness-is-a-serious-problem-by-dennis-prager/) - [your tears are precious](https://lifestyle.allwomenstalk.com/if-you-are-sensitive-dont-waste-your-tears-on-these-things/) - [sadness and happiness](https://inspiration.allwomenstalk.com/why-allowing-yourself-to-be-sad-allows-you-to-be-happier/) - [out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speak](https://lifestyle.allwomenstalk.com/reasons-you-should-always-speak-from-the-heart/) - [a thing to remember](https://lifestyle.allwomenstalk.com/things-you-should-always-remember/) - [judge judy if it doesnt make sense](https://inspiration.allwomenstalk.com/learn-your-own-self-worth-according-to-judge-judy/) - [7 Things to Ponder about Life ...](https://allwomenstalk.com/things-to-ponder-about-life/) - [8 Things You Shouldnt Give up While Growing up ...](https://lifestyle.allwomenstalk.com/things-you-shouldnt-give-up-while-growing-up/) ## Site Information - [Main page](https://allwomenstalk.com) - [Contact us](https://allwomenstalk.com/contact.html) - [HTML article](https://love.allwomenstalk.com/dont-let-these-things-in-life-weigh-you-down/)
