You will likely experience rapidly changing emotions and become obsessive, compulsive or both in an attempt to gain some security and reclaim your focus.

Focus and obsession are not the same, however. Instead of helping you to achieve your goals, your current mindset is based on emotional tides, insecurities and fears.

The ensuing obsessive thinking is likely to take more of your energy while not getting you any closer to the outcome you desire.

Be mindful not to get lost in competition with others based solely on the need to make up for insecurity or need to prove yourself.
