Business
Many people think that making a million dollars is impossible. That it can never be obtained. There was a time when I couldn’t imagine making 1 million dollars. My mind couldn’t even go there. When I started making 6 figures and started talking to people that were making 7 figures PLUS. I started thinking, what does that look like? Can I actually make a million dollars? I did some soul searching and realized I needed to make some changes in the way my business we set up. I realized there were 7 stupid things I was doing that prevented me from becoming a millionaire. You have to realize that the things that I was doing that was stupid, are the same things that were getting me results. The same things that got me to 6 figures. But to get to the next level, doing the same things was not going to work. ? What are the seven things? That is what I am going to share with you today. ➡️ 1. Drop the Broke Mindset [2:40] - Don’t let your past trap you into a mindset where you can’t continue to grow. Don’t tell yourself you can’t do it - instead ask yourself ‘how can I do it?’ ➡️ 2. Broke people habits [6:00] - Stop rolling out of bed at the last minute to start your day. Start your day early and with intention to conquer your day. ➡️ 3. Crap Tasks [7:40] - There are things that you have to do in your business that take up too much of your time. Once you begin to grow, focus on the things that you do that make you money. Build a team to take care of the other time consuming tasks (i.e., paperwork, scheduling appointments). ➡️4. Traditional marketing [11:35] - In order to grow I had to stop cold calling, sending direct mail, etc. I started a blog as a marketing tool. Then I started tackling social media. ➡️ 5. Let go of control [16:02] - If you are going to level up your business you are going to have to give up some control. You do not have time to do everything. You are going to have to hand over some of the tasks to trusted team members. ➡️ 6. Invest in myself and my business [19:30] - Be willing to hire freelancers, contractors, and team members to take on some of the work. Other investments that helped me more than anything were coaching programs, a mastermind group, and online courses. ➡️ 7. Stop saying yes to everything [26:43] - Don’t give in to FOMO (fear of missing out). I get so many ideas, and others coming to me with ideas. At a point you are pulled in so many directions that not one of those ideas are receiving enough attention and commitment to be successful. When you start to implement some of these habits you will unlock your growth potential. You will find your true strengths. ? It worked for me. I learned, I grew, and I started really enjoying what I was doing. ? What can you stop doing right now to reach your maximum growth potential?
