When Good Intentions Go… Bad
So what happens is this.
We get these big ideas of how we are going to build a fantastic new business to help improve upon the family finances.
Our excitement and passion fuels us to jump right in.
We feel empowered and invincible.
We say, “Bring on those challenges! I can handle it. I am smart. I am willing. I can DO this!”
… and in that moment all of those things are absolutely true for us.We are UNSTOPPABLE!
Then doubt begins to creep in ….
It happens to the best of us.
Now, you must fulfill your purpose by committing to what you have put into motion… but the negative self-talk is growing louder and more deafening.
What was I thinking?
I don’t know how to sell.
I don’t know how to market.
I don’t know how to run a business.
I don’t know how to manage my time.
I don’t have enough money to invest in outsourcing.
I don’t know WHY I thought I could do this. Maybe I’ll just go try and get my old job back (miserable as I was!)
Suddenly you have become increasingly aware of the likelihood that your big idea could fail.
Your energy has changed. You are no longer in alignment with your original intentions. Your mood now feeds the vicious cycle with doubt, fear, guilt, and shame. As a result, your business starts to crumble
and crumble
and crumble.
No matter how hard you try, you can’t seem to stop the bleeding. Everywhere you turn there is another fire to put out –BUT– because YOU BIRTHED this thing, you are operating with the added pressure that YOU are responsible for FIXING IT.
So you continue to try…
Time to counteract that negative energy!
