#583: Mindset Myth 3/9: If It Feels Hard, You're Doing It Wrong


Listen Later

In Episode 3 of the Mindset Myths series, Sally tackles another common belief that keeps business owners stuck: "If it feels hard, I must be doing it wrong."

The truth? Not always. Sometimes hard means something needs adjusting—but often, it simply means you're learning, growing, and building a new skill.

In This Episode:
  • Why discomfort isn't always a sign to stop
  • The difference between "hard because it's wrong" and "hard because it's new"
  • How learning curves build confidence and capability
  • Why repetition—not perfection—creates progress
Your Mindset Reset:

Instead of asking:

"Why is this so hard?"

Ask:

"Is this hard because it's wrong, or hard because it's new?"

That simple question creates space to adjust what isn't working—or keep going if you're simply learning.

Today's GSD (Get Sh*t Done) Task:

Choose one task in your business that feels difficult.

Ask yourself whether it needs to be simplified, adjusted, or whether you simply need more practice.

Then take the next small step.

Because hard doesn't always mean stop. Sometimes, it means you're growing.
