Why You Keep Fighting the Same Battle
And if he can’t stop you from stepping into your calling, he will distract you from walking in the fullness of it.
That’s why the same emotional giants keep resurfacing.
They shape-shift. They come disguised as self-doubt, imposter syndrome, insecurity. But they are not just emotions. They are now, strongholds.
What isn’t confronted becomes a cycle. And what isn’t broken becomes a stronghold.
This is why you still struggle with:
- Fear. Not the obvious kind. The kind that masquerades as wisdom, caution, and being “responsible.”
- Procrastination. You’ve never been lazy. But perfectionism and imposter syndrome tells you, “it’s not quite ready”, “you’re not quite ready”. So you delay and refine, but never fully release.
- People-Pleasing. Not because you don’t have boundaries, but you’re not ready to lose relationships once you enforce them, and you’re trying your best to control outcomes.
- Overworking. Because doing is easier than feeling. You’re so used to running in overdrive, it’s almost like autopilot and, slowing down means facing the thoughts and fears you’ve been outrunning.
You’re not weak. You’re not failing. You’re not confused about your calling.
You are in a battle for your mind, your faith, and your obedience.
And if you don’t address it at the root, it will continue to cycle back—stronger, deeper, and more embedded into your leadership at every single turn.
You feel it, don’t you? You’ve declared that this was your year for abundance and breakthrough. You set new goals, restructured your vision, even wrote the plans down.
