Mental Obstacles Impede

mental obstacles impede 
interferes slows down
obstructs progress that 
can be made 
closes off cuts off
future progress that 
should be made 
allowing the past 
mistakes to overtake 
the memory 
hindering any movement 
in a more positive direction 
creating a stand off 
standing at a dead end 
within the cul-de-sac of the mind
