I recently learned the concept of living "in the gain" from the book The Gap and The Gain by Dan Sullivan and Benjamin Hardy. Today we're talking about the 3 main benefits that come from focusing on how far we've made it so far in life in business, instead of how far we still want to go.

Making and accomplishing goals is great, but when the goalpost keeps moving, we do ourselves the disservice of acknowledging our past and current blessings and living in lack instead of gratitiude. Learning to live in the gain while keeping God as your business partner will be a total game changer!

We women of faith have so many strengths when it comes to building a business, but one of our weaknesses is a tendency to take the failures and success of our business very personally.

It makes sense - when we pour our hearts and souls into creating something that we know can help change people's lives, it can be hard not to take it personally when things don't go according to plan. But letting the highs and lows of our business dictate our emotions is a recipe for misery.

Let's explore how to create a healthy emotional distance between who we are personally and what we're creating in our businesses. Not only will it ensure better success in life and business, but it will also make it all a lot more FUN!
