083: How to cultivate a healthy entrepreneurial mindset

An entrepreneurial mindset is a set of beliefs, thought processes, and ways of viewing the world that drives entrepreneurial behavior and success. There are many benefits to having a strong mindset as an entrepreneur. For example it Helps you to align your life with your success Helps you to operate from flow not force Helps to reinforce your most intimate beliefs, attitudes and feelings about yourself It strengthens both your confidence and resilience All of which you need to build a profitable and impactful business . If you’re like most people you’re likely wondering how to get there. Don’t worry boo I got you. Here are three ways to cultivate your entrepreneurial mindset . Spend time with other entrepreneurs Research says we are an average of the top 5 people we spend time with! If you’re around people who play small you will to! If you’re around people who believe in themselves and take risks you will too! It’s imperative surround yourself with people who understand your journey and are supportive of it! Take some time to foster relationships with entrepreneurs who have been in your shoes. Learn from their successes and failures. This will help you to foster a growth mindset, which is one of the best tools you can have to create the success you desire and deserve! Get comfortable being uncomfortable There is nothing comfortable about being an entrepreneur. I am saying that to be honest! Being an entrepreneur involves rejection, risk, failure, embarrassment, anxiety, criticism, tears, and self doubt. None of this is fun! But one thing I have learned along the way is that whenever you take a risk, you will either win or you’ll learn. And failure is the best teacher there is. Prioritize learning and growth It’s tempting to look at a successful entrepreneurs and assume they’ve got it all figured out. But the most successful entrepreneurs will be the first to acknowledge that they’ll NEVER know it all. They’re constantly pursuing new knowledge and new ideas. They are constantly surrounding themselves with people who push them and individuals who they can learn from. Make personal development a part of your lifestyle. Hire mentors and coaches that support you with moving towards who you’re truly called to be. Every day, create a routine aligned with your success. Move your body, set aside time to read blogs, articles, and books that help you increase your knowledge, sharpen your skills, and feel even more motivated and inspired to move forward. Strengthening your mindset doesn’t happen by accident. It’s something you must be intentional about because in our day to day life we are often distracted by things that have nothing to do with our overall growth- most of which come from our thoughts and beliefs. And you’re responsible for your own disturbances.....
