#47: How to Gain Confidence, Increase Productivity, and Move Toward Mastery Each Day

If you’re anything like me...or if you're just human...you have faced your share of challenges and fears in the process of growing your own business. That might not be so bad, if we could all solve those challenges by simply trading stories. But no two people's challenges and fears are alike! The reason our challenges are so unique is because our minds are. Unique, that is. Struggles and fears originate in your brain, and how it processes whatever you're dealing with, from one day to the next. That's why one day you can be flying high, confident and on top of your game, and the next day you're sunk into despair, wondering how you got into this mess and whether it's too late to get out. As I've said before, the real key to every aspect of growing your business is CONFIDENCE. And we all need a little help with confidence sometimes. That's what today's post is all about--getting your head "unstuck," learning how to move forward with purpose even when you're struggling, and using each day to take the action you want. That's why I invited my personal business coach Todd Herman to join me in today's podcast episode.
