#57: 3 Core Beliefs of Truly Successful Entrepreneurs

In case you haven’t noticed by now, I want you to succeed. It is genuinely important to me to help you reach that place in your business where you can say, “Yes, I made it; I love my work and I love my life!” But there is something else that is equally as compelling that I want for you: I want you to enjoy the journey—the process of making it all happen. If you’ve been with me for a while you know that I often talk about the kinds of strategies that have worked for me, that I know can work for you too. Things like building your email list early in the game, effective ways of using Facebook to engage with your audience, and the importance of having a marketing plan—knowing what you’re going to do before you set out to do it. I stand behind all of these things 100%, but there is something else you need to know. Something so critical it can actually make or break your online business dreams. I'm talking about what you believe regarding your ability to achieve success in your business. The 3 Beliefs You Must Have to Achieve Success in Your Business Belief #1 - I believe that one of the biggest strengths in my business is knowing my target market intimately. Knowing how they think, what they need, and what words and emotions they use to express themselves is crucial to my success. Belief #2 - I believe that I am not alone, shipwrecked on a desert island needing to have all the answers myself. I thrive and my business thrives with a few core mentors that I trust and can turn to again and again. Belief #3 - I believe I have a great idea (product/service) that will impact people’s lives, and that my idea needs a clear and easy-to-navigate system to generate sales. Understanding the Three Beliefs Let’s examine each belief more closely and see what’s important about it. #1 Knowing Your Audience #2 Finding Your Mentor #3 Having a System Why You Need These 3 Beliefs I said at the beginning that belief is a tricky concept, because it’s not something I can teach you. I can only tell you, and back it up with my story and many others. But at the end of the day, the best proof of a belief is to look at your own situation. If you don’t have these beliefs, how are things going for you? Is your business on track with your vision? Are your sales what you want them to be? And if they’re not, isn’t it time to change your beliefs? I know it isn’t easy at first. It’s scary to change, to risk spending money or time on learning to do things in a new way. Don’t let fear hold you back. The purpose of belief is to shape the actions we take. And as soon as you begin taking action on these beliefs, you already have them. You will feel the difference inside you—you’ll feel your confidence growing, and your sense of purpose will feel more grounded than ever. Before long, you’ll also be seeing the difference on the outside—more email subscribers, greater audience engagement, and an increase in sales. I want all of that for you, from the bottom of my heart. I would love to hear your experiences in the comments below. Have you tried a system that has worked well for you?
