The Entrepreneur’s Most Valuable Tool

Monday, April 11th, 2011

Several times each week I interact with people who enrolled in the Break Free University because they are working to make the mental and emotional transition from being an employee to being a successfully self employed entrepreneur.

 

Most of them tell me they were highly successful in the corporate world and yet struggle to accomplish their own personal dreams, desires and goals.

 

Most of the people I encountered in my own 20+ years in the corporate environment were extremely bright and creative, so it is no surprise to me that they would have a craving to run their own business so they can do things “their own way“.

 

Unfortunately, the workplace is NOT a place for learning how to be the master and commander of your own life, so if you are working to transition yourself from “employee” to “entrepreneur” you must reprogram yourself with a more empowered mindset and more empowering decision-making strategies.

 

You Must Learn to Embrace Failure as Your Most Valuable Learning Tool.

 

As “employees” we are highly discouraged from making mistakes and from failing, so we didn’t learn how to process failure in a truly healthy and positive way.

 

As “employees” we are taught to collaborate on just about every little thing before making a decision, so as entrepreneurs decision-making without collaboration can be a large source of anxiety and self doubt, as well as a major cause for procrastination.

 

One of the most valuable pieces of advice given to me by my coach was to “fail as fast as possible” — and to do that — you must make and ACT on lots and lots of BAD decisions in order to more quickly figure out the GOOD decisions.

 

As an entrepreneur it is vital for you to reprogram yourself with internal decision-making strategies that will empower you to move forward with a decision, as opposed to waiting for more research data or collaboration opportunities.

 

It seems that no matter how smart, educated, experienced or prepared a person is — being a successful entrepreneur takes enormous persistence and tenacity and above all… you MUST be willing to EMBRACE FAILURE AND USE IT AS ONE OF YOUR MOST VALUABLE LEARNING TOOLS.

 

As always, you can get step-by-step guidance through the Break Free University curriculum.

 

Here’s to your great Success!

   

  

    

   

Remember… Persist Until You Succeed!

The more success you create for yourself, the more good things you can do to help other people!

Willpower is Not Enough to Beat Self Sabotage

Friday, April 8th, 2011
DiggShare

 

In 2003 Sandra started thinking it was time for her to leave her long-time corporate career and go out on her own.

 

She diligently used her willpower and spent many evenings putting together a Plan of Action, building lists of products to create, and making lists of things to include on her website.

 

So she worked, and she worked, and she worked to bring her dream to life… and suddenly it was 2011 and she was still in her corporate job, still aching to be out on her own.

 

She told me she felt like she was “showing up” and doing business building activities, but she also admitted that she had something inside her that she allowed to block her success.

 

Sandra told me that she had tried all sorts of things to stay motivated to achieve success, but found herself in an ever-repeating cycle that started out with self motivation, followed by lots of work, followed by challenges and problems, followed by feeling of defeat and failure.

 

Does any of this resonate with YOU?

 

Most of us have something that we work on, and work on, and work on, but never allow ourselves to actually achieve.

 

Whether you are working on building a business, improving your health, increasing your income, or developing strong relationships, quite often we start out full of excitement, motivation and energy, only to repeat a pattern of self sabotage that keeps us AWAY from the success we seek.

 

Do you make promises to yourself that sound something like this: “This time it will be different. This time I’ll work even harder. This time I’ll make it!” And you summon up every ounce of your willpower and you start the cycle of self sabotage all over again.

 

If it was just willpower that was needed, many more people would be successful. Willpower is like an elastic band, the more you force and stretch it, the tighter it gets and the harder it is to hold, until you no longer have the energy to keep it stretched and you let it snap back to its original shape.

 

Most causes of failure and relapse have more to do with your internal beliefs, many of which you are not even consciously aware of. You see, science has shown that we have 6 areas of the brain, 5 of which are in your subconscious. So if the one-sixth portion of your brain (your conscious mind) wants to change, and the remaining five-sixth of your brain (your subconscious mind) is filled with beliefs that don’t want you to change… Well… guess which one is going to win! The stronger subconscious mind of course!

 

This is why it is vital for you to do the work to uncover those inner beliefs that are no longer effective in helping you to get what you want. Once you uncover the old beliefs you can change them into healthier, more effective beliefs that will easily and naturally support your efforts to be successful.

 

In my first conversation with Sandra she told me about the many, many things she had tried over the years in her efforts to put herself into alignment with achieving success, but sadly, none had really made much of a difference.  And the next thing she told me was the most important part of our entire conversation. She said, “and I am ready now to do the work to break free from my inner self-imposed barriers!”

 

Is it time for you?

Have you run out of “willpower”?

Are you ready to break free?

 

Treat yourself to a better tomorrow. Break free from your self-imposed barriers today and live the happy, successful life you deserve!

 

When you are ready, you can get step-by-step guidance through the Break Free University curriculum.

 

Here’s to your great Success!

Law of Success

Wednesday, April 6th, 2011

“The LAW of SUCCESS requires that the Law of Attraction be accompanied by the Law of Inner Alignment and the Law of Right Action!”  ~ Troyann

 

Are you in complete harmony with all components of the Law of Success?

 

Law of Attraction

There’s much more to creating success than just using the Law of Attraction.  Yes, it is true that you must be able to see and feel yourself living easily and naturally within your desired success as if you are already there, however there are two additional laws you must also master.

 

Law of Inner Alignment

This law is about clearing up what I refer to as “the thoughts BEHIND the thoughts” (and sometimes it’s “the thoughts BEHIND the thoughts, BEHIND the thoughts“). If you have a desire for a specific success but you harbor inner feelings of fear or unworthiness, those negative thoughts and feelings will put up a great big barrier between you and your ability to attract your success.

 

Law of Right Action

To create your success you must also master the Law of RIGHT Action. This means that you are doing the work that will actually create your success. So if you are in sales, cleaning off your desk, doing research and hanging out on Facebook is NEVER going to give you the same results as picking up the phone and making appointment setting phone calls.  In other words, if you want to win the lottery, you must buy a ticket.

 

You most likely already know which of these rules you may be breaking. When I work with a coaching client they almost always can tell me if they have competing feelings and beliefs of not deserving the very success they seek. They also know – for the most part – what tasks and behaviors are required for creating their desired success and they typically know which of those tasks and behaviors they dance around.

 

If you recognize that you are breaking any of these laws, you must do the work to clear away the barriers so you can easily and naturally attract your desired success.

 

As always, you can get step-by-step guidance through the Break Free University curriculum.

 

Here’s to your great Success!

   

  

    

   

Remember… Persist Until You Succeed!

The more success you create for yourself, the more good things you can do to help other people!
