Mind Your Business

Selling is an integral part of starting and running a business. Yet so many entrepreneurs hate it. In fact, a whopping 81 percent of entrepreneurs say sales is their least favourite part about running a business. Don’t get me wrong - I understand the sentiment!

Whether you are trying to make your first sale, or looking for ways to increase revenue, this episode will provide you with the most valuable information on how to improve your sales skills and sell like a superstar.

The word underdog has been used to describe a person, team, or other entity that is not expected to be successful.

Do you think it's possible to be successful as an underdog?

I do. Because I used to be one.

So what does it really take to be a success story in the face of adversity and hardship? In this podcast, i'm sharing a bit of my underdog success story and how to succeed as one in your own life!

What makes you successful? What keeps you successful?

Motivation, my friends. It is the driving force behind human actions. You need motivation to make any change in your life, whether it's a big one or a small one.

It's the driving force behind pretty much everything. It's why we do the things we do every day. We seek a desired outcome, so it boils down to wanting. You want something so bad, that you're willing to go through the actions, and sometimes all the struggle and hard work, in order to get it. So how do we find motivation when we need it, and more importantly, when we lose it?

Never did I think I would be openly sharing this.

Back in 2011 I spent a month in a mental hospital. I can now say it was one of the most important experiences of my life. It was perhaps one of the best things that could have happened to me. I learned many life changing lessons during my stay, and on this episode I am sharing them with you.

Confidence is an essential ingredient for success. It doesn't matter if you're trying to get a promotion or start your own business, if you don't have confidence then it's going to make things very difficult. Confidence is life's enabler. It lifts you up and propels you forward.

When we're not feeling confident it's like a dead weight that holds us down, stopping us from achieving our goals and dreams. No one wants to feel this way but the good news is there are things we can do to help cultivate more confidence in ourselves. In this episode I share my top tips to fostering confidence and self-worth. Enjoy!

We all have those moments in our life where we just feel - stuck. The fear of failure and lack of self-worth holds us back

It's time to get unstuck and stop living life in that fear. Fear is the one thing that paralyzes us from moving forward with our goals, dreams, or anything for that matter. It can be crippling at times, but it doesn't have to be! In this episode I talk with Lolita Walker about how you can break through your fears, and live a more fulfilling life.
