You don’t know what is going to work unless you start doing the work. You will ALWAYS be refining so you just have to get started.
Limiting beliefs, you know those sneaky thoughts that creep in sabotage your progress? When left unchecked, they can wreak havoc on your potential. I hear a lot of limiting beliefs from the designers I work with.
Today I’m sharing some of the common limiting beliefs I hear over and over again. We’re going to examine 7 of them and try to untangle them. The truth is, if you’re feeling stuck in business, it might not be what you’re doing (or not doing) that is the problem, rather it may be your thinking or beliefs that are holding you back.
In this episode, we answer questions like…
What to do when you are just feeling stuck.
How you can pull yourself away from those limiting beliefs.
How to tackle the most common limiting beliefs I hear over and over.
Here’s a glance at this episode…
[03:30] I dive right into the first limiting belief that you need to have all of your processes “figured out” before you can take on clients. (Hint: you have to jump in before you can start to figure it out and refind the process)
[05:07] I discuss how not finding immediate success is not a reason to give up. We see a lot of people’s success without seeing the hard work or process behind it. It’s just an illusion and we need to continue to grow and trust the process.
[11:02] I tackle the age-old idea of when to invest in your business. How long can you bootstrap your business and when do you need to start investing in some way? I share why you should be investing in your business from the start, even in small ways.
[15:35] I jump into the limiting belief that you can’t afford to make mistakes. I share how this can throw you into analysis paralysis and how to overcome this idea.
[22:10] I share all about the idea that you can’t start to charge for your services until you have a few projects under your belt. Your services are valuable, no matter where you are in your business.
[24:30] I talk all about the idea that once you have “x”, you’ll be confident and put yourself and your business out there. I share how to build that confidence in your business.
[26:47] I discuss the misconception that selling is somehow about convincing people and share why believing that sales are “icky” can hold you back and limit your growth.
[31:01] I wrap up with how to ask yourself if a thought is a limiting belief or a true challenge.
