Your Mind - Your Secret Strength To Building A Successful Small Business

By Wallace Fernando Xavier


You have tried everything you can think of to make your business work. There is certainly nothing wrong at all with just setting it aside and returning to it at some point in the future. We will ask you to look at your actions and analyze your thoughts. Awareness is the key, and we are talking about having a clue about how you perceive life. Did it ever occur to you that you hold and give energy to highly negative ways of thinking? These are the stumbling blocks and road blocks to the success you are looking for in business. You can greatly benefit from a solid and reliable self improvement strategy.

Have you ever noticed if things must be perfect whenever you work on them? What is really going on with perfectionism is perhaps the feeling that anything less than perfect will be a negative on that person. If you are like this, then you understand the havoc that can be wreaked upon a business. Remember that high stress levels are often found with the perception that assessing situations and action must be done. This type of person will often find all manner of reasons as to why the work cannot be finished according to a schedule. You can decrease the ill-effects of perfectionism, but it does take a serious effort.

Do you realize that most people are unable, or refuse, to face up to their own true natures? This is a pretty common phenomena. It can be hard to face that we have some faults that are not very flattering. Of course ignoring them is the least painful thing to do. This is called avoidance - or burying one's head in the sand - but it certainly doesn't mean that the problem doesn't exist, it doesn't fix the problem, and it's hard to change. You could believe that not thinking about your faults eliminates them, but the solution is only temporary. All you are doing is keeping the problem around for a longer period of time. We all prefer to not think about our shortcomings - it's just natural to do so. But you will find the benefits of owning up to your faults can be life-changing.

It is interesting that many negative attitudes, beliefs and behaviors that can impede business success also have the same effect in other areas of our lives. One such behavior is being overly self-critical. If you are a writer, then this can be especially counter-productive. But generally speaking, this behavior will often be seen with a perfectionist attitude. If you are like this, do you think that people who had an effect on you when growing up tended to be like that, as well? No matter what we want to change, self-awareness is paramount to success. Silence that inner voice that is constantly criticizing all you do. Remember that you have to be more gentle on your self, and that will need to have some time.

You will be amazed at the many ways your business, and your life, will improve by a program of self-improvement. The reason is simple because many of the issues that affect your business also have the same affect in your personal life. So just make the simple decision to start small but do begin working on something that seems doable to you.
