Here's a list of the most common things entrepreneurs and creative struggle with:
this idea is not new
people will not buy this
what if it doesn’t succeed
i need money to do this
nobody will get my idea
In coaching we call them limiting beliefs. Those are thoughts and inner voices that stop you from making the first step and are simply not true.
How to know it's limiting beliefs?
The energy gets low and heavy when you talk like that, everything seems impossible and the only way out is to quit.
How can you work with them on your own?
Fact checking. It's really easy to see that actual facts don't match those 'clever' voices.
A few examples:
This idea is not new.
The idea is not new yes, but is the world full of old ideas that get improved? Yes, 100%
Nobody will buy my stuff.
You will only know if people will buy your product is by offering it to them. The rest is just guessing. In entrepreneur world, you need to test, make mistakes, learn, improve and try again.
need money.
I need money to launch this.
Yes, we all need money, but so many ideas and things can be started without funding - offer it to community for free. What you can ask in exchange is content, reviews, further recommendations.
As a coach, I work with entrepreneurs, business owners and freelancers to help them boost their confidence and take their ideas to the realisation. And create a successful system of daily operations.
