You: I’ll try to do a handstand today.
Your mind: You’ll fall. You’ll fail.
You: I’ll start my own business.
Your mind: What if it fails? Or you haven’t got enough skills for that!
Failing is always an option but remember: it’s not the only one. If you don’t try, you’re failing for sure. You’re failing to achieve the potential results. That’s the worst outcome of all. Take action.
6. Conformism
Are you always trying to please people and deliver what they expect? That’s not a good mindset to have if you’re aiming towards professional and personal growth.
Can you think of a great leader who’s a conformist? Of course not!
Great people distinguish themselves by unique thoughts and inventions. That’s the kind of person you want to be.
7. Being Dependent On Approval
You’re finally ready to start that business, but you’re worried about your partner’s or your parent’s opinions?
Do you rely on their support too much? That’s not okay.
It’s good to have support, but when their negative attitude stops you from doing something great, it’s a huge obstacle. Don’t seek approval. If you’re sure you want something, go for it.
8. Being Comfortable In The Comfort Zone
When you’re used to doing everything the same way, your mind gets used to that comfortable state of being.
You do things automatically and you lose your creativity.
If your life has become like that you have to snap out of it. Do something different! Try something new! Live a little!
9. Zero Vision
Sometimes you know you want something, but you don’t know how to get there. You envision yourself as a successful business owner five years from now, but you have no idea how to start and how to go through the journey that takes you there.
That means you lack vision. It’s okay; you can overcome this obstacle. Just find out what you have to do to achieve your goals and make a plan that takes you there, step by step.
If you need extra education to gain knowledge and skills, start working on it without wasting a single day. Your vision within your mind takes form with consistent action.
