Recently, I’ve been doing productivity assessments with people who are struggling in their businesses, to help them learn to leverage their time to create more, do less and spend their valuable hours focusing only on what they love to do.
Every person I talked to had a unique message, talent or gift to offer the world. They each knew that they were destined to help others make big changes, but they weren’t moving forward with their mission. I asked each of them, “What is holding you back?”
One client explained, “I have to generate some sales so I can afford the help I need with running my business before I can focus on doing the stuff I’m really good at.” Others told me they couldn’t work on getting their message out to the world until they could figure out their shopping cart or update their website.
I said it to them and I’ll say it to you: what a load of horse poop.
The simple fact is that people have a hard time trusting in their talents. That is what is holding them back – not their shopping cart account.
A client once told me, “You have to be your own first customer.” What she meant was that you have to buy into what you are selling FIRST before you can expect anyone else to follow suit. The kick-start to your success is not about figuring out how to send autoresponders; it’s about truly committing to your purpose. As soon as you do, your newfound confidence will convince others to believe in you as well.
In my ongoing effort to eradicate self-doubt, here are five suggestions on how to finally stop sabotaging your self and start fulfilling your mission!
- You have a calling and it’s because someone out there needs exactly what only you can provide. You know it’s what you were put on earth to do, so just go ahead and do it.
- Knowing how to update your website isn’t going to help you fulfill your purpose unless, of course, you are supposed to be a web designer, in which case, “Full speed ahead!”
- “Doing it yourself” doesn’t really save you money. Your time and effort are valuable; take them into account when setting your budgets.
- Leverage your time. Let someone else handle the website updates while you focus on promoting your purpose. Writing an ebook or conducting a teleseminar is way more productive than spending a day figuring out how to change font color in WordPress.
- There are tons of smart, enterprising gurus out there selling entrepreneur secrets and marketing systems that really work. Pick one you like, try it out and be sure to give it your all. Unless you implement the entire plan, you’ll never know whether it works.
A bonus tip: get help. Whether you enlist the talent of our super skilled team or hire someone else, you will find that once your time is free to focus on your gifts, you will be more inspired, productive and successful than ever.
You may say you can’t afford to hire anyone. I say that you can’t afford not to. The thing is, you can either sit on your ideas until you figure it out, or you can outsource the detail work to start making money and impacting lives today. (Hint: choose option two.)
