Overcoming Limiting Beliefs

Good afternoon! Welcome back to the Business Discussion board. Today we're facing a fear! Something that we do to ourselves that can limit growth, especially in a business ownership role. And that is limiting beliefs. Here's how to overcome them...

 

Change Your Relationship With Failure
Not scoring the winning goal, not getting the promotion, going into debt, you get the idea of these few examples of what our structured ideas of failure looks like. Entrepreneurship forces you to re-arrange our relationship with failure. Rather than seeing it in the traditional sense, "failure" will look like: not being resourceful, being a poor leader, being too afraid to make mistakes, and not learning from those mistakes once they’re made. Remember, struggle is a necessary part of the process.

 

Identity Your Largest Fear and Face It
Say your biggest fear is actually starting your business; what better way than to dive in head-first? Register your business name and tell 5 people close to you to check in on your progress in the next 6 months. That's one sure way to get started! Maybe you feel like you're idea isn't good enough? Reach out to 20 people who fit your ideal client persona and ask if they’d be interested in using your product or service. If at least 15 say “yes", you’re probably on to something!

 

Handle Your Money Hangups
Entrepreneurship takes a lot of blood, sweat, tears, and... money. You have to spend money to make money, am I right? You'll have to spend money on marketing, coaching, training, and hiring talent to grow to your full potential. For some, this is arguably one of the toughest limiting beliefs to overcome.

 

Bring Joy
Joy, laughter, gratitude, and positive interaction are things you should strive to bring to your business every day. Self-doubt is far less likely to show it's face when you're engaged in the moment and having a blast!

 

There you go folks! A few quick tips to overcome any limiting beliefs you may be facing. As always, we'd love to hear your thoughts! Let's hear some of your pointers in the comments below.
