Listen Later

In the final episode of a mini-series on how to improve your mindset, Lade Abuah shows how important mindset is to be successful in business and life. Getting your mindset right is the most important thing that you can do in business. In this episode, you’ll learn why mindset is important, and the key steps that you can take to make sure you aren’t held back by self-limiting beliefs. Remember to; empower your mind, empower your life.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Our thoughts become reality. Mindset is the power of the mind, getting it right can be the most powerful thing you do in business.

Mindset is created by the Cognitive Triangle. This is comprised of Thoughts, Emotions, and Actions. A positive and growth mindset will give you more confidence and therefore more success whereas a persistent dwelling on failure will mean that you ultimately will fail.

Take responsibility for your mindset.  Identify which thoughts and mindset that you would like to have or that you would like to change. You are in control of them and can affect changing them. The key thing is to accept in taking responsibility.

There are three stages to creating a better mindset

  1. Identify the thoughts/beliefs as wrong. Recognise that they are unhelpful, untrue and self-limiting.
  2. Know what triggers them.
  3. Then as soon as they come along; challenge them.

There are four steps to ensuring that you are continuously improving your mindset. Process, reprogramme, and reoriented ourselves.

A ) Repeatedly think what is contrary to the self-limiting belief. Good habits will lead to more success. This is a process of thinking and doing.

  1. B) Educating yourself to get the right mindset. We all have the capacity to learn vast amounts of information. Identify what reading, listening and training will help in improving your mindset.
  2. C) Choose the right role models, that have achieved. This has a huge impact in terms of motivation and inspiration. These are contrary to your self-limiting thoughts.

We will all have those moments when we still fail even if we have done all the right things. If you have the right people around you, they will inspire you to keep going in the process.
