KEY TAKEAWAYS

 

  • Changing your thinking and your mind-set is the first step to getting out of your way, the changes you want to see in your life and business are your own responsibility. You need to step up and commit to the goals you want to achieve in life and accept that you are the one who is going to make it happen. Stop blaming the world around you.
  • Always look for the good in the world and the opportunities presented to you. It is necessary for you to accept situations for what they are in order for you to get up, dust yourself off and move on to the next chapter in life. Grieving a loss is normal for any human but you need to decide when you will draw the line and stop throwing your own pity party.
  • Change the story. You will always be the main character in your story that you tell others about yourself, do you really want everyone to see you as the victim? Wouldn't it be better to get admiration for your achievements? Write the story of victory.
  • Understand that you are good enough. You would not be where you are in life or hold your achievements if you were not good enough. List all of your progress and achievements you've made in your life and/or business in the last 12 months that you can be proud of and use this as evidence that you are good enough.
