Disruptors RANT: STOP This Will Ruin Your Business (& Life) [Business, mindset, entrepreneur, disruptors]
Are you your own worst enemy? Do you constantly think of the worst-case scenario in every situation? Listen in today to understand why you need to stop this and why it is ruining your professional and personal life. Learn today how the doomsday mindset is something our mind automatically does to us, the importance of looking at the upside of your situation and why having the courage to be disliked can allow you to be free.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- One of the worst traits you can have as an entrepreneur, which will eventually end up ruining your business and possibly your life is ‘doomsday-ing’. This is the process whereby something happens to you and you immediately start thinking of the worst-case scenario. Many peoples’ brains go wild with fear and they begin ‘worst-case scenario-ing’ to the point where their thinking is extreme and unrealistic.
- Nobody wants to have a doomsday mindset, it is something that our brain does to us. One way to stop your mind from going this is by busying yourself. Some people may argue that this is a distraction technique, however, it can work for you in certain situations to stop you focusing on the negative thoughts in your mind.
- Another way to distract your mind during a doomsday moment is by thinking of the upside of your situation. Whatever your situation may be, if your brain is constantly thinking of the downsides you should sit down and write down some of the upsides of the situation; What can you learn? Why has this happened? and What is the new opportunity to come from this? Answering these questions can allow you to have a fresh new outlook on your situation, and can help stop your negative thoughts.
- Our fears are a prison. Whilst our fears may serve to protect us and at times they can keep us safe, they can also trap us. Feeling these doomsday emotions will stop you from leaning into your fears and embracing them. This is poison to your business, developments and relationships.
- Freedom is in the courage to be disliked. If you have the courage to be disliked, then you have the courage to be yourself because you can accept not being liked when you are being your true self. If you do not have the courage to be disliked then you will change and morph yourself to the whims and desires of other people like a chameleon. This mindset will not allow you to be free, as you will be constantly dancing to somebody else’s tune.
BEST MOMENTS
“Have you ever worried about something that has never happened? They say 99% of what you worry about will never actually happen.”
“When my brain goes into the doomsday mode it goes wild. It creates some amazing fantasies that are never going to happen in a million years.”
“In reality, there is no other way. You will always be disliked by being yourself.”
