54: How to Think Like a Business Owner
If I asked you to think about your relationship with your business as though it were a person, what would come to mind? As a business owner, you should have a positive relationship with your business!
Not only is your relationship with your business a reflection of your relationship with yourself, but it’s also an indication of how successful it will be. If you don’t love your business, can you expect it to thrive?
In this episode, I’m sharing five ways that I think you might be thinking about your relationship with your business right now and then suggesting five ways you could be thinking about it that are more beneficial.
I want your business not only to be something that brings you success but something that you love. You deserve to wake up each day and do something that brings you joy as a person AND as a business owner.
In Today’s Episode We Discuss:
- Why we feel like we need to control the world around us
- Managing our expectations about how things “should” go
- How your thoughts create your feelings and your feelings create your actions
- Identifying your relationship with your business or work
- What happens when you think about your work as a hobby
- The danger of thinking of work as an obligation
- Why you should think of your business as your child
- The importance of honoring your word to yourself
- How you are fueling your business
I hope this gets you thinking about how you could improve your relationship with your work or business. If you currently have one of the first five mindsets that I mention, start thinking about how you can shift to at least one of the last five.
