Being aware of what holds you back it’s powerful. Awareness is how you can change your life around COMPLETELY. Something I hear often is “that’s just how I am”. You CAN change who you are! Don’t stand in your own way. From a self love content creator to another- awesome video Aileen!! 💗

*Fear is what hold me back* watever i do, however i improve, there is just this little unknown fear of uncertainty! But it also makes me feel soo good after i overcome it.

[@SamElle]

Mindset is so SO important!!! I used to be that person who thought that I couldn't change. My issue is I have a lot of trouble ADAPTING to change. Changes throws me off and I feel frazzled!

"Success usually comes to those who are too busy to be looking for it." -- Henry David Thoreau. "Successful people do what unsuccessful people are not willing to do. Don't wish it were easier; wish you were better." -- Jim Rohn. Hi guys! Let me just share to you a short story. We own a cookie shop business in our college town. When we first started it, we just graduated college and were living in our car with very little direction, just a huge passion to be successful. I started it out of a local bagel shop in their off hours at night with my boyfriend, Bran. It was a crazy experience but it worked! We became a success! And how we have our first storefront location (a second one currently under construction but launching soon!) We started it to fund a year long backpacking trip around the world and to be successful while living the life of our dreams.

[@zazacage3106]

Really needed a true story 💖

[@VerenaSatriani]

Changing our mindset is challenging sometimes. Especially when the environment around us don't support our best. We need to believe in ourselves first. That way we can stand tall and keep going to grow the mindset of success.

The Comparison Game. I love when you talked about the quote that says: make sure you're better than who you were yesterday. I never thought about it the way you addressed it. I usually thought that I should make exactly the day I'm in better than the day before. I also have this quote: Let each morn be better than its eve and each morrow richer than its yesterday. But, now I'm thinking that the morn, eve, day, and yesterday could mean a season in life and a larger view of it. Thank you for sharing such amazing content! :)

[@Minaaamii]

I’ve recently been trying to tell myself to be my own best friend because at the end of the day, the one person who is absolutely guaranteed to be in your life is yourself. If any of my friends talk about themselves the negative way I view myself, I’d be heartbroken and refute that! So I wanna be able to do that for myself as well.

[@archanagavhale7736]

Most people just focus on the things that make them successful, but simply ignore the factors that stop them from being successful. Seeking approval, putting myself or others down, self doubt were some of the things that held me back from being successful and now I have overcame them.

[@LizBrousseau]

yassssss so happy to hear that!

[@alyssaong2265]

I recently started my online business which I really wanted to start way way back but I was so shy and don't have the confidence to do so 🙁 and now that i officially started it, I feel like I've boost confidence and build trust within myself. ❤ Mind over matter ❤

[@SAMoralesTP]

A thing I really like saying is "make sure your future self is grateful for what your present self enacted." this isn't to say that you have to do better everyday it's more of, if you can do it now why make your future self do it. and this can go for short and long term goals. My biggest challenge right now is overcoming my fears but I have made the connection between self love and that being the jump off for overcoming fear!

[@rosegoldmermaid]

I love your take on privilege! It's important but we don't have to be bound to it forever! We create the life we want by using what we have.

Being able to admit that you're human and some things will hinder you, is powerful. I think a lot of things do begin here--the acknowledgement. Heya, fellow early birds

Fear of failure because sometimes if I succeed something, theres a thought in my mind that if ever I will make mistake there will be judgement for sure. But I always keep praying that maybe someday I can become more mature and aware of who I am, what can I do and show what Ive got. 💖 Loveyou Lavendaire! Im your ilongga fan from mindanao. ☺😍

[@DaphneGsell]

Honestly, the one holding me back the most is fear. I have a fear of what others will think of my life decisions. But I am slowly breaking out of that fear!

[@gauravydv5641]

I was really in this situation (Exam fear) .... thanks for helping me......... you are my role model..... need a heart ☺️🤗😇❤️ from India

[@debanjanabiswas111]

What holding me back is fear- fear of judgement and deficiency of self- love. There's so much of self doubt that most of the times I can't reciprocate what I feel and my thoughts.

[@akshatasharma7249]

One thing I want to add in the list is Patience 🍃. Today's world is all about Instent Gratification, no one wants to wait or preserve till they achieve their goals, even I feel that sometimes! Idk if you have made a video on this but I would love a one on How to preserve.. By the way you're looking soo cute!❤ and the video was awesome💌

[@dayalaver64]

The biggest one is fear, especipically about other's opinions but I am working on that and I am getting better.

[@MoonSignInsight]

The thing I struggle with most is the comparison game, feeling like I should be farther ahead. It's something I'm definitely working on. I'm happy I took this past year to let go of limiting beliefs and I feel like I'm making progress. Thank you so much for sharing!!!

[@reginebee2054]

The major thing that's holding me back is F-E-A-R. I'm aware that this stems back to my childhood because I was raised strictly so there were things that I never got to enjoy as child because of the instilled mindset of "Don't do this because blah blah blah..." and yes it created a self-limiting belief of "playing safe and not taking the risk". I carried this heavily when I was a teenager and looking back at my 12 to 15 year old self, I was such a major nega person. My close friends in high school are the reason why that fear started to dissolve gradually and the moment I felt that I took a risk was to follow my passion in pursuing Interior Design major. Relatives were very quick to judge my decision in my future and criticized me a lot. My journey was very rough (because there were ups and downs) but I managed to get to the finish line. It was so worth the experience~! Now I'm still trying to conquer my fears but I feel much much better than I was 10 years ago. Much love and thank you for this video! This made me reflect my struggles and achievements in the past and reminded me never to forget what I've accomplished. mwah~!

[@haqiqo]

That "self limiting belief" and "negative thought" slap me so hard. But, I'm still in ky journey to grow my self love. Yes, it's a baby step, one by one. Thanks for making this video, Aileen ❤️ Love from Indonesia 🇮🇩

The one thing that keeps holding me from success is FEAR. And the irony to this is it takes me so long to admit it. Coming across your videos and podcasts have been helping me to feel a great amount of positive energy. Will be looking forward to more videos and new resources from you.

[@RoannaFernandes]

The biggest thing holding me back from success: “when i forget how far i’ve come.” //// miles to go and all that; at a pace where i’m enjoying the journey and process. it’s taken me good and long to get to this place in my head, and in my life. (grateful, no more regretful.) i feel a softness and sweetness in my heart, in the little steps and tasks. i don’t see success anymore as one big thing or two or three or four big things if that makes sense. my goals are sacred, and i honour them with intention (and action, i forgot to add before hehe). //// i love the question. your exercises are such fun! thank you for your insights and videos, Aileen. i too wish you love and success and sweet things. ♥♥♥♥

Fear is what's holding me back the most..fear of judgement , of failure, of not being good enough..i struggle with other points you talked about too, so i'm gonna try and work on them & hopefully i'll make a progress with time ! this was so inspiring and motivating thank you Aileen ❤

[@ayeshanavy4164]

The thing which is actually holding me back is self confidence. I just lack confidence in myself. Even when I talk to people I speak very softly that no one could even hear me and they ignores me. They'll just get frustrated at me and then I fell more down, more un confident. Well that's my story. I can say that I'll learn to be confident in myself by watching your channel. Your videos heal my soul. Thank you for making such awesome videos. Love you Aileen 💜💜

[@keithgeronedacuan]

I am the same, like I put myself down and dig myself more into the hole by thinking of what others feel about me. Now what Aileen said of like instead of saying "I can't get up early" Vs I do not prefer waking up early can be a good way for us to say "I prefer to speak softly" can be a great takeaway from the video :)

[@naamakolin486]

The thing that holds me back from success the most is limiting beliefs (thinking that I can't, that it's not for me,etc.) I am working towards overcoming it by journaling, meditating and repeating positive affirmations. Your videos bring clarity and wisdom to my life!

[@gintongaparador999]

Procrastination, anxiety, and emotions. I often get so overwhelmed by the amount of stuff I have to face or deal with. I can't help but worry every second about what tomorrow will bring and the possibility of failing. Lack of self esteem, trust, and discipline. I tend to give in to my emotions. When I don't feel good, I won't do anything. Instead of being a mature adult, I hide in my room and cry, and I try to escape from all the things that's bothering me.

[@SteAndRach]

Hey Rose, just read your comment and I totally relate with feeling overwhelmed about the future and the possibility of failing! One thing that really helped me was reading about Stoic philosophy, it sounds boring but it was actually really helpful and practical to live a more content life! We actually made a video about it on our youtube channel, it's called "5 stoic hacks to reduce stress and be happier", we really hope that it can help you as much as it has helped us 💛

[@xshikx4097]

My biggest belief holding me back is comparison. Most of the times I compare myself with others, but I don't really want to do so maybe it's something involuntarily happening. I do compare myself with my friends and keep thinking of the same. That literally just stress me out and I loss my mind. Even shout loud to everyone surrounds me...

[@daniellenormand7200]

this is something ive struggled a lot with as well! when you notice it happening stop yourself say something empowering about the person you were judging & something empowering about yourself & put a smile on your face & thank yourself for breaking the pattern ! i have some videos that you may relate to if youd like to check them out

I seriously Love Aileen She motivated me to become happier, And Be Confident and strong Thank you Aileen! No cap

[@janicewojciechowski2629]

I've found it hard to find some great self-improvement, self-empowering videos out there. I just left teaching after 14 years and had a rough summer after experiencing my second miscarriage. I feel like I am starting all over with myself. I always struggled with being my best self and am ready for CHANGE. These videos are simple but so motivating and moving. I've literally just spent every morning watching you and feel like I am able to get up and make this journey. Thank you❤️ PS.- your voice is very soothing! LOL

[@nophima]

I let fear hold me back so much in the past, I'm sick of it. Now I'm doing whatever I want, who cares what others think? I just have to make one person happy - me. Of course, I'm still afraid but I do things despite being afraid. And so far the things I was afraid of never happened, it's just in our minds.

[@DaphneGsell]

💜 you are the main character in your story & you get to write the story

[@maggieomalley7861]

Limiting beliefs or negative toxic mindset is holding me back. Sometimes I think im so used to being hurt and depressed that I out myself into that thought pattern and then tell myself I'm stuck there. I am changing that!

[@nerdytintin]

One thing that holds me back is my ANXIETY! I try really hard to combat it though. When all of the anxious thoughts come rushing in and I’m thinking about the worse case scenarios I say, “get comfortable with the uncomfortable” and I just do it. Saying that phrase eliminates all the worse case scenarios in my head and pushes me to JUST DO IT. It helps me a lot!

[@GlaizaJournals]

I love how you explained why “Make sure you were better today than yesterday.” is not really a good quote. Only now I realized it. ❤️

[@stellairizarry1652]

I would say FEAR (depending the situation of course )is one factor that has hold me back and others for reaching success. Watching your videos for years, had helped to deal with them in a objective manner and without judgment. Facing your fears can lead to awesome results!

[@disappering]

In my life I am struggling to be as productive as I can because I don't know why I let myself to think that i can do my work later and just enjoy but what really happens is that time goes on and on and my work remains still untouched . I always think the every morning I wake up that today I will do my best and be productive as much as I can but the same thing happens . I am not able to change myself and think in perspective that I am a person who is able to do anything to make his life better . And I strongly believe that change is what necessary that to be focused on . This is how I have went back in past and pointed out my negatives so that I can change myself in present to be a better person in future . Thankyou lavendaire!!!

I remember discovering you last year in september and it really helped me dealing with my life.You always tell me what I need to hear but I dont know I have to. Im glad to have at least you in life with such a good mindset that its close to mine.Honestly I was thinking Im crazy for thinking different than the other people.

Aww this message is so beautiful and we agree Lavendaire is such an inspiration for us too! I hope she sees your message but if she doesn't we hope you find the courage to prioritise your happiness! I was actually in a really similar situation, I was working at a good paying job that my parents wanted me to stay at but after a lot of reflection I decided it wasn't for me and I built up the courage to quit and do what's best for me! It was hard but if I can do it, you can too!! We actually made a video about it on our KZbin, where i share more about my story dealing with my parents, I hope it can help you: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fJfSqWClibWajLc

[@lyrrmd]

almost all of those 7 things you've discussed really hits hard and I'm so so guilty with that. But I think the "negative mindset"was the one that holds me back the most from doing such great things in life, I always look down on myself, I always think that I can't do things so I don't really grow. As a student it was really hard to believe in myself, but I know I can do anything if I just have the courage to do so, I am not privileged as other kids out there, so I was really having a hard time to cope up. How I wish I was rich as other people 😭 Anyways,super thankyouuu for making videos like this, I wish I can thank you in person someday, when I am successful! Loveyouuu

Comparison game 😢 I hate falling into it, but it sucks knowing that you could’ve done or be “X, Y, Z,” when you have things out of your control (in my case, my autoimmune disease limiting my physical functions, career choices, and ability to go back/ complete my degree). It’s both a trigger for falling into a comparison trap, but also a great reminder that I walk a different path and have different struggles than whoever I’m comparing myself to... and that’s ok. 🥺

[@sujatakhandekar251]

Fear is the thing that hold me back i remember once you said in one of your videos the fear and anxiety might not of the actual thing but it might be of changing the situation after success may be like fear of comming out of your comfort zone or safe environment.And That's exactly what happens with me but i am still working on.

[@SteAndRach]

It's so true and we really believe that the most beautiful and rewarding things are on the other side of fear, we just have to have the courage to go after them!! You got this!! 💛

[@trendytees2542]

Fear and comparing myself to others. Learning to work on these two stumbling blocks that have blocked my success life for years

[@jeannie101]

For me personally is not letting external influences affect the way I feel. Also a goal for me this year is to consciously be aware of who I am giving my time to because I want to surround myself with positive people and positive vibes. I honestly don't tolerate bs anymore and I'm really proud of that.

This got me emotional. I feel like I've been too hard on myself. I've always feel ashamed for the things that I want to do because I am afraid of what others may say. But the truth is, other people also deals with their own problems. I am happy that I am slowly accepting my shortcomings for myself and learning from it. It just feels so nice to really know yourself again and build piece by piece the things that I've lost within myself.

For me, it's the fear of unknown and also self doubt at times. "Should I do this? What if it doesn't work out? What if it harms me more? What if I'm not good enough to accomplish those tasks?" But after reading the book about the fixed vs. growth mindset and also following Aileen's content for a while, I'm trying to change my self limiting beliefs and seeing my "obstacles" as new challenges to overcome.

I never used to click on her videos but now I probably should more often. She points out some things about the mindset is really where its at.

Always a pleasure to learn something new.

I love this " I have power over myself and my life" as my affirmation

[@AditiMehre]

I know all the information...but i don't watch your video for info ...but literally for positive vibes and refreshing vibes.i love the way you shoot your videos.

I used to blame my mom for being the reason why I took the degree that I have now. But I realized that even if she was the one who wanted it for me, in the end, it was my responsibility. It was my own action. I worked towards that degree. She was just an influence. Now I’m making a u-turn and gonna start working towards a life that I love. It’s not gonna be easy and it’s scary but I’m ready to punch fear in the face!!

[@lavendaire]

proud of you for realizing that! 💖

[@lykastevens1065]

Lavendaire thank you!! you’ve been an inspiration!! ❤️

[@InPursuitOfCuriosity]

It's great to see these kinds of videos where the content creator encourages others to better themselves and improve their circumstances. It also helps even further when the content creator is clear, calm and captivating. Keep up the good things that you do!

[@nikkisandoval2952]

you asked a question about what is holding me back, and I have to say negative mindset and lack of self love and confidence, and I am my own worst enemy. I have tried to figure why I am harder on myself than anyone else, and I still have not come up with a solution, however I am going to work on the 7 things that you talked about, and I think with a little work I will not be my own worse enemy. and Thank you, your video offered a lot of insight to me, but to be honest, I already knew all of that, you just reconfirmed it, and it was almost as if you were talking about me to me. Thank you

[@paigeariellem]

I always stress self-love and self-awareness, I think it helps so much when it comes to feeling secure and stable. To answer Aileens question, the thing that holds me back from success the most is self-love. To cultivate more self-love I plan on being kind to myself even when I don’t want to, I plan to take care of myself and my surroundings even when I don’t want too. This will allow me to feel loved and appreciated by myself as time goes on. I just wanna say thanks to Aileen, I love everything you promote, and I appreciate how kind you are for wanting to help others the way you do 🤍

She has learnt so much in her life, I'm so touched that she's sharing her experiences and learnt lessons with us TT

[@eileenkenney]

All of them have been holding me back! My eyes have been opening up to my self limiting and negative patterns over the past year, and I've been working hard at breaking these habits! Thank you for sharing such insightful and inspiring content :).

[@daniellenormand7200]

all about being aware & changing the thought process as it arises ! you got this keep putting the work in

[@triskameiliyanti3068]

Something that holding me back from success is over thinking. Until now, sometimes my overthink make me not do anything. It's really worst, but yeah, i still try my best to deal with it. Thank you Aileen for your tips or maybe advice 😄❤

[@DaphneGsell]

You never fail to make me more motivated! I am so grateful to have come across your channel over quarantine!

[@xinting6523]

Fear is the biggest one that holding me back.. I really hope that I can overcome the fear.. And always thank you Aileen for the videos. Its always help me. [love]

[@ajahemmanuel_]

comparing myself with others, despite the fact I know very much that comparison is a thief of Joy. I often find myself doing it. All other factors mention here still applies to me. Thanks to Lavendaire since knowing her community of love last month, It has been an absolute game-changer for creating my own dream life.

[@Bhawna_Kalra]

Your only limit is your mind! Grateful for the timing and grateful for having found this channel. Thank you Aileen ❤️

[@pamelamaxted5496]

Gosh I think fear of the unknown is a big one for me and also comparing myself to others. Thanks for this content Aileen - super helpful.

[@lenguyendieulinh5902]

The biggest thing that is holding me back is the comparison game. I know it's toxic but sometimes I just can't help but feeling jealous when I see other people have accomplished the things that I've been working on and that I'm kinda stuck in. I've tried different ways to deal with this kind of mindset and there's a one that I find really useful. Whenever you feal envious, just close your eyes, take some deep breaths and try to focus on your body, not your mind. And when you do that, you will notice that your body is safe and there is no pain and that you are in peace. Once you know that you are safe, you won't feel uncomfy anymore.

[@angelagrimes8237]

Once again, you bring clarity to what one might hope would be simple and clear after 64 years on my journey. Fear of the lack of certainty is a huge factor that is 'coloring' my perspective, as it is for many in the US. All the linear trajectories of what we expected have now been trashed and we are left without supposed tried and true directions on how to engage in the world we live in. That said, I always have hope that at some point I will get back into my journey the way I want and be successful. Your vlog has really, once again, given me a refreshing way to look at the processes I am trying to manage in order to take my journey where I want it to go. Thank you. Your 'food for thought' is so helpful.

[@quirkducirque]

Thank you for sharing your wisdom, Aileen! 💕 Taking ownership over the thoughts and feelings I experience has truly changed my life for the better. Everything starts with a thought and can either become concreted limiting beliefs or empowered beliefs depending on what thought trail we choose to follow. With enough awareness, we can consciously decide which beliefs we want to adopt and release the beliefs that no longer serve us 😊

[@daniellenormand7200]

beautiful quote

[@vickyg2130]

I love all of your videos!! All of them are so inspirational! The one thing that's always holding back on me in life is fear, a fear for failure.

[@blaze4882]

I thinks its only been a month since I subscribed into your channel and I eventually found myself immersed in your videos. Well clearly, the biggest things that's holding me down is my mindset, I don't know one second i'll be optimistic and then I will oppose myself, apart from that I also have health problems that is why I can't do the activities I needed to do for myself, or I don't know if its just me not prioritizing myself and choose to prioritize the needs of my family over the things I needed to do such as my studies since I'm in college and my "plan" of opening a small business. anyway, i love how your videos make me realize some things. Thank you!

[@obsessionisjusthatreddisgu2692]

Probably comparing down, and comparing up, would be the biggest thing you mentioned that is holding me back from success. I actually like the quote “the only person you need to be better than is the one you were yesterday” or “the only youtuber (for example) you need to be better than is the one you were yesterday” or only dancer, writer, etc., but this is just not be comparing your path to others. It’s a different version of the same quote, but I will remember what you said.

[@Nina-qk2us]

Hi! The biggest thing that keeps holding me back is comparing myself to others. I would always compare my work ethic, my body shape, my intelligence and etc to some of my friends. I know that it’s a really toxic trait and little by little I’m teaching myself to not feel that way anymore. Your videos are one of the reasons why I’m slowly becoming a better person and I would like to thank you, for that.

[@SteAndRach]

I can totally relate to this! I struggled with comparison for so long, until I realised that there is nothing useful about it, it just drained my energy and slowed down my path. I'm still not perfect but actively trying to let go of the thoughts definitely a big improvement! We actually made a KZbin video about this on our channel, hope it can give some helpful insights: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hpyymK2bj5ilqKM

[@alexandriayoung8759]

Hello Aileen and lots of love from Michigan! 💗 The biggest things that hold me back are fear and pressure to be a certain way. Your videos are always so peaceful and great reminders that we all have a journey with room to grow.

[@daniellenormand7200]

its so easy to get programmed from our parents & people around us but always follow your heart & trust your gut you got this ! if youd like i have some similar videos on my page that can hopefully give you some encouragement !

[@reec5450]

For me, it's lack of self love/confidence & limiting beliefs. I'm starting to realise this year, how much of my power & love I put in other people. So it's automatically a lose situation when/if they're not around combined with those limiting beliefs 😅. But hearing you say that the relationship with yourself is forever... I can feel that's where my energy/focus should be ♥️. x

[@absloutelyRasha]

Beautiful outfit and look! Thanks for the advise ! I started long time ago learning from tips like that then I expanded to actual meditation practice and mindfulness that changed my life ❤️❤️🌙
