Why did I feel like this?

Its easier sometimes to blame others and not take responsibly. Due to family life (not going to plan) I became financially responsible for myself at a very young age. My mother had passed away and my father found it difficult on many levels including financially to support me. Now I could spend my whole life blaming a situation I had no control over or I could just get on with it. At the age of 15, I did the second and never looked back until recently.

Starting my own business became a road block because of this past experience. If I was to be totally honest....I was a little over being RESPONSIBLE. Have you ever felt like that about your business or career?

We are responsible for everything we have going on in our lives….our home, our family our jobs, our businesses and yes even our sales !

Are you at cause or effect ?

Do you think you got lucky, married the man or women of your dreams, bought the fabulous house, groovy car and had the 2.5 children to go with it all ? 

Everything you have started with a thought. If you believe you are good at maths or you believe you are not good at maths - you would be correct ! Your beliefs are what makes your reality and it you believe life just happens to you then it will. If you choose to belief that you can or if you choose you can’t then it will be true.

"If you think you can or your think you can't you are correct." H Ford  

If you are choosing a belief make sure it is one that supports you and not a limiting belief. If you are starting a small business and you believe you are not good at accounts how will that work out for you ?

Everyone is teaching you all of the time. Have you a boss that is causing his team to lose money, or are you the boss that is losing sales by having to be correct rather than rich ? Have you suppliers or clients that you are managing ? Has office politics in your work life become all consuming ? Perhaps a better question here is what are you are tolerating ?

In a business, any business even if it is a solo business you need profits and profits are gained from sales of your services or your products. Your investment in you, and the people around you will result in your business outcomes. Keep in mind what is the outcome you want and if it is to be successful at sales to catapult your career or your business then get your mind straight now. 

"Every time you start to complain about something, stop. Think about how you can take control of the situation and be accountable for it." 

And yes keeping up all that mental energy can cause its own road block.

The thing about a ROAD BLOCK is that you can get out of the car, and "try" to clear the road yourself. This takes time, effort and there is no guarantee of success.

OR you could do what I did and clear the road quickly ASK FOR HELP !

INVEST IN YOU AS YOU ARE WORTH IT!

It might be a personal development course, getting yourself a business or career coach or even taking a well earned break.

The definition of insanity is doing the same thing and expecting a different result
