What Fears Keep Entrepreneurs from Connecting?
As an entrepreneur, you can easily get caught up in focusing so much time on the technical things of business – the “how to's” of running your business. All of that is important.
But the fact is, businesses are about people. Businesses are about relationships. Businesses are about people connecting to you, liking what it is that you have, relating to you, and from there, wanting to do business with you.

The Cure for Inertia is Action
Inertia, that feeling of being stuck and immobilized in your business, is something we’ve all experienced. Recently, I came off of an incredibly busy two years managing several 7-figure launches. During that time I learned alot, worked with great people, made good money and had fun. But, around Thanksgiving, I wanted to refocus on my own business but found myself temporarily immobilized. I didn’t even know where to even start!
Before I share what helped me get moving again, let me share some of the reasons inertia might be showing up in your business…
- Fear of alienating others who don’t understand what you're doing or care about and/or possibly leaving someone behind as you move on.
- Perfectionism because you don’t know what the perfect thing to do in your business is so you don’t do anything.
- Limiting beliefs such as, “Who am I to think I’m an expert when others have more education and have done it longer?”
- Overwhelm because you don’t know how to do it, you don’t know who can help you, you think you don’t have the resources, and so forth.

Get Comfortable with Selling (Part 3): Take the Focus Off of You
The third step in this series of blogs on getting comfortable with selling is about your own mental preparation – your mindset. When you’re really clear on who you can help and how and why, and you know your material you’re well on your way to getting comfortable with selling. But too often we carry our own junk that puts us into the wrong mindset.
When you’re worried about rejection, it’s because you’re focusing on yourself. You’re in it for you rather than being of service to them.
No matter how badly you want the sale, you’re only going to make the sale if it’s right for them. And the only way you’re going to know that is through the question process. Quite often if you’re “rejected” it’s for one of two reasons – it’s either not right for them or you didn’t find out well enough what they needed.
