As an athlete, I knew I wanted to play basketball professionally, and I also knew that in order to play professionally, I’d have to start with making my high school team. Only then could I hope to make play college, then finally professionally.

In sports, the steps are laid out, there’s no rushing them. You do them one step at a time, you don’t expect to skip steps, and you don’t feel impatient about the amount of time it takes to achieve that goal. You understand that it is a process. 

So why is it that we expect immediate success in business? 

One of the biggest mistakes I see my mindset coaching students make when building their business is going too big, too, fast, and expecting immediate results.

But let me tell you something: Rushing things puts you on a fast track to NOWHERE. 

In today’s extended episode of The Mindset Coach Academy, I’m coaching you to do the work to reach 100k in your mindset coaching business.  I’m sharing the strategy I use with MCA graduates to help you hit that first BIG money milestone in a calm. measured, and focused way. In a way that allows you to make decisions based on growth, not panic. 

If your goal is to hit 100k in your business, press play and take notes! THIS is the work.
