5 Things in Your Business to Stop Doing ASAP!
Updated: Apr 13, 2022
Whatever the business is, chances are you have done or are doing at least one of these things. These have nothing to do with your business model, the type of business you run, but rather the mindset you have regarding your business.
1) Trying to Please Everyone.
You will never ever be able to please everyone. No matter what you do or who you are, you will never do it. So why waste your time trying? Instead, focus on the people that you already vibe with. Create an opportunity for those people to tell you what they like, don't like, want to see, etc.
2) Fearing Change.
If you are content with your business where it is at...it will never get bigger and better. Growing requires change. The quicker you learn that, the better off you and your business will be. Don't let your fear limit you from even trying to grow.
3) Living in the Past.
So what if you have made mistakes in the past? Haven't met your deadlines or goals? What in the world is dwelling on the past going to do for your future? You cannot control or change the past...but you can control how you move forward from that. Use the past as a lesson and an opportunity to learn and grow. Apply that to the future and start crushing it!
4) Putting Yourself Down.
What you think and say about yourself you become. If you are going to wake up every morning and tell yourself that you aren't capable of running a successful business. You can bet your ass you will never run a successful business. Talk yourself up, have a morning hype session, implement hype sessions into your business model. Do not put yourself or your business down. Full stop.
5) Overthinking.
Listen to your people. Don't overthink what people want, need, or will think. Open your ears, practice active listening, and the provide. If you are spending hours upon hours, trying to figure out what people will think about your next launch, your newest product, or whatever else it may be...you are missing the point. Overthinking and assumptions will kill your spirit and eventually your business. Just show up. Show up messy, show up proper, but just freaking show up.
I hope these provide a little insight and value to you! These are also common things we do in day to day life. By stopping these, or at least catching ourselves when we do them...will 100% improve your mindset.
