It took me a long time to realize that you can't just suppress those feelings. Much of the current self-help craze doesn't deal with these more substantive issues, but just gives quick fix methods for plastering over the problem. Self-sabotage is incredibly common, and can't be papered over by simply thinking positive and working hard. I have learned that your method - acknowledging, accepting and acting anyway - is very effective in at least taking those initial steps to overcoming these defeating beliefs.
