You can be stuck at zero dollars or a million dollars. If you aren’t moving to the next level, you are stuck. Every time you are stuck, you can link it back to one or more of these four Ps. The four Ps apply to everything.

Procrastination

Playing Small

Perfectionism

You Won’t Become Limitless If You Are Stuck People-Pleasing

Female entrepreneurs tend to struggle more with playing small and people-pleasing.

People-pleasing is associated with fear. Instead of putting yourself in front of others, your internal voice says, please her, please them. It is not healthy for your business to please others all of. Pay attention and recognize when you are doing this. Then, you will be able to stop pleasing others, take intentional action, move forward, and get unstuck.
