116: What You Believe In Grows Whether You Are Starting A Business Or Side Hustle, A Solopreneur, Entrepreneur, Mompreneur, Freelancer, Bookkeeper, Virtual Assistant, Business Owner, Or Self-Employed

There is a lot of talk about belief this time of the year, but I feel like belief is such a vital part of having a side hustle or being a solopreneur. You’ve heard me say dream big, follow your heart, and love what you do before, and we are going to talk about how belief is such an essential aspect of not only dreaming big, but also reaching your goals, creating the business you desire and getting to the next level. It’s about pushing past the results you are currently achieving and reaching for something even greater in your business. In today’s podcast episode, we are going to dig deeper into the belief you have for not only yourself but for your business as well. Whether you are starting a business or side hustle, you’re a self-employed individual, a solopreneur, entrepreneur, mompreneur, freelancer, small business owner, a remote, virtual, online, or in-house bookkeeper, or a virtual assistant or VA, the belief you have in yourself and what you and your business can do is key to moving your success past your current level and on to a higher level of success. What do you believe you can do with your business this year? These tips are essential whether you are using a computerized software system like QuickBooks, Xero, Wave, or FreshBooks for your business finances; or doing your bookkeeping manually with an Excel spreadsheet or even a Google Document…

Show Notes:

Welcome Back…One of my favorite parts of my business is when I am talking with my clients and they tell me all about their dreams for their business. They talk about where they want their business to go as well as their overall vision. When they are dreaming big, they have all kinds of ideas for their business. They have the belief that they can accomplish anything they set their mind to. It is pure excitement, but after time, this belief can start to dwindle, and they start to lower their expectations. When they lower their expectations, they lower the level in which their business can grow. This is why I want to talk to you today about making sure you hold on to the belief you have for your business during all of the ups and downs you might experience in your business. Throughout this podcast episode, I want you to ask yourself, what is the next level you want to reach? When do you want to get there? Can you see that it is possible for you? Because if you believe, it can be one hundred percent possible.

When you are working towards accomplishing your dreams, your big business goals, or maybe even your life goals, you know the impact you want to make on not only your life but potentially the impact of others’ lives as well. Maybe you want to create a wealthy lifestyle, or you want to work three or four days a week while still maintaining your overall income goals. When you do this, you need to have not only the right foundation or plans set in place, but you also need to have a level of belief that you can reach these goals and surpass where you currently are in your business or life.

There are times when business owners have the belief that they can achieve their goals, but as time goes on, they lose this belief, or they change their goals or dreams based on the outcome they are seeing in their business. But I want you to know that whenever you are pursuing a dream or goal, it’s easy to see the challenges you are facing and take a failure as a sign to lower your expectations. It’s normal for you to allow doubt to creep in and cause you to question your belief. I want you to think about this for a minute. If you lower your expectations, you’ll never reach that big goal. You’ll start believing you can reach these lower expectations, and your belief in your higher expectations disappears. You are telling yourself that you don’t have enough belief that you can achieve your big dreams. It gets harder and harder to show up in your business and more challenging to execute your plans for your big dreams when you don’t believe you can reach them. I know this can be difficult, but I want you to continue to believe in your big dreams. It is going to require you to grow as an individual and as a business owner and really work on evaluating what is working in your business and what you can do more of. You can look into what isn’t working in your business, but don’t dwell on this, make improvements and move forward by learning from your mistakes, and figure out what you need to start doing better so that you can continue reaching for your highest belief. Don’t allow yourself to move further from your dreams or your goals by lowering your expectations. What you focus on is where you will go. Think about when you are driving. If you don’t focus on the road or where you want to go, you will likely veer off the path you originally set out to go, so you need to stay focused on the right path to get where you want to go.

I want you to believe you can reach your goals. I want you to believe that you can reach the next level in your personal life and your business. I want you to choose to believe in yourself. I want you to believe you can move forward. I want you to believe that you can achieve more than the current level you have in your business. You have full control over the results you achieve. It is essential that you believe. You will create the results based on your actions. You need to have belief regardless of your past results or what you’ve currently achieved. Sure there may be risks you need to take, but you need to evolve and change yourself so that your business can evolve and change as well.

Think about your impossible goal. Stretch beyond who you currently are. Does this bring you excitement and anticipation? Think about what it will feel like or what it will mean to you when you reach these goals. What will your life look like when you achieve them? Envision what your future self and your future business will be like right now. Today. Think about every aspect of how you feel as your future self or your future business. Spend time doing this every day. Direct your thoughts and your belief in the ability that you can achieve these dreams. Open up the capacity to reach your next level. Your results will be based on the level of belief you have and how much time you spend in this belief. When you align your strengths and what you really want to do with your business, the possibilities are endless. When I work with clients, I help them work on their vision, the dreams they have for their business, see the potential, and just how possible it is for them to reach their goals. You can schedule a session with me, and I’ll help you see what’s possible for you and your business in the upcoming year.
