It also includes a list of suggested readings for those looking for even more information.
Some people think that positive thinking and manifestation are vital tools that propel us towards our goals. But what about the opposite? Not wanting to dwell negative, but it’s also important to be aware of the power of limiting beliefs.
We sabotage ourselves in several ways but especially with the negative chatter we have with ourselves thus falling into the habit of limiting beliefs.
Here is 9 of the most powerful limiting patterns/habits you need to break that are keeping you from thinking more creatively and effectively in business + personal growth.
This limited thinking pattern can hinder your ability to see nuance. As a result, you are either a massive success or a lowly failure. Routinely thinking this way means we are not allowing ourselves or your business to grow or progress. There is no middle ground.
Negativity is the biggest obstacle for most people, and we all have it. No one likes to think negatively, but understanding how this thinking affects our lives is essential. You won’t be as happy or successful as you should be if your mind filters everything you read, hear, or see-through a negative lens.
This type of thinking is best described as taking a single incident and drawing broad conclusions. Consider an example. You fail at something and then decide it is worthless. You are lousy, and you will never figure it out. Negative thinking doesn’t make sense, and this thinking process is illogical. Use words such as might, may, or could, and keep your thoughts flexible.
It’s not possible to read someone’s mind. Even if you’re highly intuitive, you don’t know for sure what they’re thinking. For example, suppose you’re the type of person who automatically assumes that someone else is talking about your business in a negative way or doing something for their own benefit by holding you back. In that case, you might be thinking too quickly. Don’t let your limiting beliefs are a topic for others.
A fixed mindset is the idea that things are how they are, and there is no reason to change. You don’t need an excuse to change or grow, and you need to take the leap of faith and go for it! It’s never too early or too late to grow and change as a person.
That’s when you get too caught up in the idea of “how” or the idea of the result. You are so focused on the “how” of achieving a goal or trying something new. Of course, setting plans in motion and following them is essential, but as creative business owners, there are roadblocks. If you worry about getting passed the how before you even start, this limiting belief will hold you back.
You always expect the absolute worst in any situation. No matter how large or small an obstacle may seem, there is no reason to believe that it will be a catastrophe before it even happens. This example of limiting thoughts will prevent you from seeing what could be and that you are worth all the fabbo available to you. Don’t let fear and indecision hold you back from growing your business and having the life you deserve.
When you worry about how things “should” or “could” be instead of how they are, you might be dealing with this limiting thinking pattern. You expect the universe to act the way you want it to and don’t adapt when it doesn’t. Worrying excessively in the present about what should or could be will hold you back from taking action in moving forward in opportunities for success now.
Not everything is about you. 😲 You might be experiencing something called personalization. This limiting belief habit means you take everything personally in business or life. Often, we have no idea what people are thinking or feeling, and we have learned now in this blog post to break the mind-reading habit. The truth is, sometimes things don’t work out. That client we wanted to work with chose not to book us, so we must look at it as a chance to work with another one. It doesn’t mean there is anything wrong with you, and it does not determine your worth.
So, do you have fear of business failure? You are talented and driven. Ready to share your talents to create the business and life you deserve?
But you’re unable to move forward because of fear of failure?
🛑 STOP LETTING THE FEAR OF FAILURE HOLD YOU BACK. INSTEAD, LEARN TO UNLOCK YOUR POTENTIAL FOR SUCCESS BY SHIFTING YOUR MINDSET.
Sometimes you need a genuine hard push from someone who has been in a similar place.
Many business owners find themselves caught up with working in their business, not on it,
and lose sight of their initial goals.
