The Financial Phoenix

This episode is the start of an in depth series where we will explore the six reasons that businesses fail and what we can do to learn the lessons so we don't become a statistic. 

Sometimes things don't go as planned in our businesses. Sometimes we listen to others who tell us that we must do this or that to have a successful business. What is holding you back from starting a business? Where are you fearful? 

Do you ever want to go off grid? I am wanting to get away. To unplug and go where no one can find me and I 'm going to do just that this week. It is important to unplug frequently and recharge. 

We only have less than six weeks left in 2019. Are you regretting the time you have wasted this year? You still have time. You can still achieve your goals. Even if it is only one goal you achieve between now and the end of the year you will be that much closer to checking them off your list. Are you going to sit around wishing you had or just take the baby steps to make it happen? 

I am a big believer in you can do, be, or say anything that you want to be. So many people applaud me for standing up for what I believe in, calling people on their sh** and setting boundaries, but they stop short of doing it for themselves. And again I ask, why?⁠ Lean in to the hard things. Set the boundaries, speak up for yourself, call yourself on your bs. Be your own hero. 

I know you have heard this phrase before that you must “renew your mind”. But, what does that really mean? When I started my #business I didn’t realize how my thoughts created my reality. How the very things I thought about called in more of those things into my life and my business. We talk so much about marketing your business, networking, and social media for your business. However, the most critical aspect of my business is me. How I think on any given day directly affects my business. So four years ago when I started this crazy journey into owning my own business I quickly figured out that I must focus on growing me, changing my thoughts, which in turn would change my reality. Here are three ways I have found to “renew my mind”.

For years I struggled to fit in with others. I would go out of my way to be nice to people I honestly didn’t like simply to be friendly and welcoming to others because I thought that was how you were kind. Many times I was treated like sh&t and other times I was simply shunned or ignored. Those times burned into my soul no matter how much I pretended they didn’t.. Here what I did to turn all of this around.
