I feel so honored that when I work with my clients I get to see them shift their mindset in ways that will help them succeed faster at this game called entrepreneurship.
By the way, thinking of building your coaching business as a game is one way to take the pressure off and enjoy the journey.
So the specific mindset I’m digging into today is about OWNING your right:
· Own your right to be in business for yourself
· Own your right to earn well
· Own your right to live the life you want
That may sound odd. Let me explain.
My Early Coaching Business Was An Albatross
When I was new to my own coaching business I treated myself like I didn’t deserve to be in business, like I didn’t deserve to earn well and have the life I want. Here’s what I did instead:
1. I over-complicated my business model by offering way too many options to prospective clients.
2. I undervalued myself and charged way too little to sustain my business.
3. I over-delivered in every single way.
4. I was too accommodating with my schedule.
5. I allowed late payments.
6. Ultimately, I didn’t think through what I wanted and plot a strategic course to get there.
Bottom line … I was operating unconsciously in my coaching business. I was driven by a mindset that doesn’t go well with being the CEO of a business. Big mistake.
A few years in, I realized that I had created a monster — a business that was complex, running me ragged and paying me poorly.
Its part of the reason why I now teach coaches to create a Simple Coaching Business Model and to strategically grow their business from the get go.
