67: A Few Things I Think You Need to Hear (Hint: It's About Your Mindset)
I like to think of your mindset as the lens through which we approach life. It’s a set of beliefs and attitudes, that consciously or unconsciously affects how we think, feel and act.
Your mindset can be our greatest asset and closest ally…. Or it can be a real bully that slows us down or stops us altogether.
Your mindset is your daily companion in running your business, and I’ve learned that it’s really worth investing the effort in figuring out how to make your mindset something that works for you and serves you well, and doesn’t hold you back, stress you out, and make you feel bad about yourself.
I’m not a mindset coach, but I am someone who has been working on my mindset for years. So today, in this episode, I’m sharing 9 things that I believe will help any small business keep a strong mindset.
These 9 statements are beliefs that I lean on and remind myself as often as I possibly can. They cover topics like perfectionism, procrastination, making an impact, comparison, and much more.
They help me stay focused on what matters and making the impact I want to make, instead of getting wrapped up and distracted by some of the unhelpful thoughts that come up.
You don’t have to have it all figured out before you start.
The first version isn’t the final version.
Business feels a lot better when you involve others.
Focus on who you can help.
You can have negative feelings and self-doubt -- and move forward anyway.
Action creates confidence.
Look at others’ success as an example of what’s possible.
Ask, “what can I learn from this?”
The right time is now.
