It's where you experience the pushback from all those limiting beliefs you used to have, telling you, "Hey, this flood of new ideas can't be right, because we believe this instead! So the focus becomes on them "fighting back" trying to maintain themselves, before they fall... or you walk through that "wall" that was just smoke and mirrors.
Is what you are saying like when you're conscious mind already know that all your limiting beliefs are bullshit but still you're still getting mediocre results because deep down a part of your subconscious still believes in the limiting beliefs?
In accordance to that, like all these years you've been conditioned by society to believe this and that, do this and that but once you found out this site or other natural self-improvement articles and forums which says otherwise your conscious mind wants to believe them. However, the years of social conditioning have taken toll on your subconscious so it will take a long time for it to change?
I mean I'm experiencing that a lot and frankly speaking even though consciously I know what to do, I still have a hard time doing them. For instance, sleeping early. I know that on workdays I should try and sleep early to be ready for work tomorrow but I still spend days when I just sleep late due to browsing the Internet. It's like my subconscious still wants to sleep late. Is this like a Fear of Success or just a problem in my Self-Discipline?

Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent."
