It is difficult to think clearly when negative thoughts, which act as barriers, interfere with your decision making. To identify and overcome your personal barriers it is important to pay attention to your self-talk, become self-aware, and then remain aware of and control your self-talk. To do this you may use a process involving identifying, challenging and altering your negative thinking then taking the action needed to implement your career choice.
