Are You UPLing?

In the book The Big Leap by Gay Hendricks, the concept of self limiting behaviors is addressed through the easy to understand concept of the Upper Limit Problem or what he calls the ULP. The ULP’s are what we as humans do to ourselves right when we are about to really be happy or experience success. They are the output of our inner saboteurs. For example, work is going great, you just got a promotion and you get in a huge fight with you partner, or perhaps you get engaged and find yourself sick. The scenarios are endless, and I imagine without much thought you can recall a time where something really great was happening and then something not so great happened. The ULP’s are the situations we invent to keep us from experiencing success or happiness. The Big Leap talks about how to stop inventing these situations and experience happiness.  Do you have the courage to stop inventing road blocks?
