3 Affirmations for Entrepreneurs
The way we talk to ourselves impacts everything we do in our business.
As entrepreneurs, we tend to be our own worst critic. It’s easy for us to question every damn thing we do, think, or don’t do in our business.
We tend to overanalyze every decision we make, wondering if it is the right one.
“Did I make the right choice leaving my corporate job to start my own business?”
“Did I do enough to set this client’s launch up for success?”
“Did I support my team well enough this week?”
Not to mention the weight we often give other people’s opinions (who frankly, don’t matter at all).
“My sister doesn’t understand what I do. Should I have made this business move?”
“That client asked for 3 edits on her graphics. Does that make me a failure?”
“My teammate replied with a ‘Ok, got it.’ Is she mad at me?”
All of these negative thoughts and habits of questioning and doubting ourselves can be draining and detrimental to our business success.
They can paralyze us with fear and hold us back from greatness.
The more we have these thoughts and doubts, the more we’ll start to believe them, until we convince ourselves that they’re true.
This pattern of thinking has to stop, because let me ask you this:
If we do not believe in ourselves, why the hell would someone else believe in us enough to hire us?
They won’t.
So instead of putting ourselves through the constant questioning, negative thoughts, and always bracing for the worst, we need to start showing up for ourselves with positive thoughts and an “I CAN fucking do this (and I WILL)!” attitude.
