Here are 3 mindset tips you can implement straight away in order to grow a successful agency or business…
If youâre an entrepreneur or lead gen agency and you want to fast track your business growth, shaking things up is a great way to turn the gears.
You’ll find that it’s easy to stay on the same level as a business owner because it means you don’t have to risk anything.
Many people don’t realize that they’re stuck in a vicious cycle of fear.
But what happens when you avoid change is that your business growth will be stunted.
I’ve shared 3 ways you can combat fear and lighten the load in this video.
Letâs get into these growth mindset tips that will help boost your stamina as a business owner.
Growth Mindset Tip #1 – Getting out of your comfort zone
My #1 growth mindset tip is getting out of your comfort zone.
I refer to this as jumping out of an airplane and building a parachute on the way down.
It may not always be the best way to do things butâŠ
âŠfrom my experience, I need a sense of urgency and pain in order to grow.
If we’re comfortable with what we’re doing, we’ll stay at the level that we’re at.
We all know that growth comes from putting yourself in situations where it feels like the world is going to end.
This has happened time and time again inside my own business.
Just when you think everything’s about to capitulate and go wrong, that’s when you make the big breakthroughs.
This is because it puts you out of your comfort zone.
People will obsess about making sure their agency website is perfect before they do anything that’s difficult, like switching some paid ads on.
That’s comfort.
You’re only hurting yourself by obsessing about something that’s relatively small in the scheme of things.
If you are someone that’s just staying at the same level and not experiencing real growth, doing something different can really help you break the cycle.
Spend that $50 a day on paid ads in order to grow your agency.
Breakthroughs come in direct proportion to the amount of pain you can take as a business owner.
Get outside of your comfort zone and see what happens, you might be surprised.
Growth mindset tip 2 – You are not your thoughts
The second growth mindset tip I want to share is about being aware of what’s going on inside your head.
Most entrepreneurs and business owners don’t realize the amount of fear that consumes their mind.
If you’re anything like me, your mind is constantly worried about whether you’re youâre losing money on ads or making enough profit this month to pay your team.
The sad thing is, most people aren’t usually aware that this is what they’re thinking all the time.
Fear consumes you.
It takes away from your creative side and stops you from failing fast so that you can create solutions for yourself, your agency and your clients.
If you’ve got too much fear going on inside your head, you might not notice this and you’re really holding yourself back.
So how do you get rid of that?
There’s a few things that I doâŠ
The first one is meditation, I use the Headspace app for that,
The whole point of that is to be able to watch your thoughts and notice that fear based thought when it comes in.
Identify it for what it is, and let it go.
You are not your thoughts.
The second habit I implement is setting an hourly alarm, which gives me the time to reconnect and take a few breaths.Â
Join a community
The third growth mindset tip if you are someone that’s continually hitting a glass ceiling and you’re not able to break through thatâŠ
Start thinking about joining a community where youâre surrounded by like-minded people that you can talk to and bounce ideas off.
They’re going to help guide you and give you some support. They might be able to give you advice like: “No, trying to grow a multi-million dollar business in the pest control industry might not be the best idea.”
(Thatâs probably a terrible example but you get the jist)
Being part of a community can help keep you on track because being an entrepreneur and a business owner can be very lonely unless you get some support.
So if you are struggling and you want to grow, why don’t you think about joining a community?
I’ve got a free community you can join if youâre looking for something like this, the âPay Per Lead Ninjasâ.
This is a great place to ask questions and get some advice from other people.
Although you won’t get personal hand holding, it might be a great start for you.
These 3 growth mindset tips are things you can do relatively quickly that will help you lighten the load a bit.
