Now here is the thing, having all the knowledge in the world is great. However, if you have the knowledge, but never take any action on it…it is meaningless. It just sits there in your brain taking up space, when you could possibly give that knowledge to someone else, or even use it to create something huge, massively, gigantic, and rewarding for the whole world.
Some people don’t know this, but, true success starts from within. It starts from knowing and believing that you are successful, even before you start. It’s a mindset that every successful business owner has had to work on in order to see the results they desire for themselves and their business.
And, guess what? This mindset is super-duper important because it’s what allows you to take action in your business and implement the knowledge you’ve got. You will notice that most business coaches tackle this mindset piece first before anything else because it holds so much value and is often the stepping stone to how people get results.
Yes, you could pray for God to guide you in your business and allow you to see results and feel successful. Yes, yes, yes, so true. And as a believer in God, I allow Him to guide my business and give me guidance every step of the way. He is indeed a huge part of my ministry. But, God leading in your life and business, does not mean that what you think and believe about life, self, success, and money doesn’t have an effect on you. It does. Most of our beliefs come from our life experiences and values, and if we’re honest with ourselves, some of our life experiences have not been the most positive. Right?
There could have been a time when something happened that allowed you to lose confidence in yourself, or believe that you no longer have options to succeed in your career, or maybe even believe that you were not made with the skills to run a business. These beliefs are all mindset driven.
And you know what, God wants you to dwell on positive things that support your growth, well-being, and provide you with the success to do good in the world. He wants this for you.
Your mindset matters in more than just business and success; it matters in life.
