In this powerful episode of Iconic Voicemail, Jen Szpigiel tackles the common feeling of “It’s just not working” in entrepreneurship. She reflects on the critical moments when initial excitement fades, momentum slows, and self-doubt creeps in. Jen emphasizes the importance of who you are in the in-between—the times when effort outweighs reward—and how pushing through these moments distinguishes the highly successful from those who quit.

Key Takeaways:

• Mindset Matters: Be mindful of the statements you make about your business; they can become self-fulfilling prophecies that interrupt flow and abundance.
• The In-Between Moments: Success often depends on how you navigate the less glamorous, challenging phases after the initial excitement has waned.
• Unwavering Discipline: The most successful entrepreneurs keep going when the effort seems greater than the reward, maintaining discipline in their actions and mindset.
