One of the biggest things thataffects your business and your income is your level of self-confidence. You’d think it would be marketing and yes,marketing is massively important, but if you don’t have confidence in yourabilities, if you don’t have confidence in your business or in what you’redoing you’re not going to get anywhere in your business. Why is that? It’s because confidence affects your actionsand your actions create your habits and your habits, which are the things thatyou do day in and day out, create your results in business. Confidence isresponsible for how many clients you have, how much you make, etc. All of thatis based on your actions. That’s why confidence affects every single aspect ofyour business. Confidence affects how you closethe sale and how often you market. It affects your willingness to do whatever ittakes, how you follow up with prospects, how you reach out to potentialstrategic alliances, how you network, how you speak, all of which determineyour number of clients and how much you make in your business. All of thisconfidence, affects the money that you make in your business. It’s easy for your confidence totake a hit. I know youknow this because you’re maybe experiencing it right now. Each time you don’tclose the sale, there’s a little piece of your confidence that gets taken away.When you make a mistake in your business (we all do) who is the harshestcritic? You know right? It’s you. I know because I’ve been here too. Every time you lose a client oryou don’t make a deadline or you don’t fill that program it makes you questionwhether you’re really cut out to do this – being an entrepreneur. It all stems from your level of confidence.If confidence is such an important part of the success of your business, it’sreally important that you guard it. Guard your confidence. Allow me to share two simplethings with you that I did, especially in the beginning when things were tough,that allowed me to keep my confidence at a natural level. It kept me persistent. This is not aboutinflating your confidence to an abnormal level. It’s about bringing your confidenceback to a natural level. 1.      Read your testimonials on a daily basis. I know it sounds kind of silly, but one ofthe best ways to get back to a natural level of confidence is to feed your mindwith positive validation that you are good at what you do. That inner gremlin,that drunk monkey inside, it’s so quick to tear you down and to make you feelbad and to make you question whether you can actually succeed in your business.Any time something bad happens, that inner gremlin is right there to tear youdown. To counteract that you mustcounteract it with equal force. All you need to do is read your testimonials or think about allof the positive things that you’ve done for clients or people in your lifeespecially around you business, all the people that you’ve helped along theway. A lot of people look at their life or their business like 98% is goingbadly and only 2% is going well, but that’s not usually the case. Usually only 2% is going badlyand 98% is going well because you’re making progress and you’re putting onefoot in front of the other. Remember, building your business is not a race. It’s pace, notrace. The day you plant the seed is not the day you eat the fruit. There issome time in between and that time sometimes makes us question, “Am I good atthis?” Instead of focusing on that, focus on what is going well. Focus on whatyour clients have gotten from you and you’ll have the confidence to keep going. 2.      Keep a ‘kind words’ folder. You can do this on the desktop of yourcomputer where you move over some emails from clients who are getting greatresults or you paste some of the screenshots of a note from a gushing clientwho left you a note on your facebook wall. You can even create a physicalbasket and put it on your desk, where you put cards that you’ve received,little notes of encouragement, words from client who said that you’ve changedtheir lives. That’s what I do. My team calls it the Good News Basket. Icall it my Kind Words Basket. It contains otes from my clients about how I’vechanged their lives, stories along the way, notes that my team prints up for mefrom emails that have been sent. It’s a big pile of love. The reason I keep this is becausejust like anybody else in business, there are going to be days where the goinggets tough. And italways will because at each new level there’s a new devil, but you can justfeed the positive part of your soul so that you regain you confidence and youkeep going. Remember, you started yourbusiness to make a difference in people’s lives for the highest good of all. By feeding your soul with positivevalidation, it allows you to ignore that drunk monkey and to stay in faith,that you are here to change the quality of peoples’ lives through your businessand when you do you’re going to persevere. It’s those people who stay thecourse and persevere that ultimately win in business. You can do this. Your Client Attraction Assignment Stay in positive affirmation.Read your testimonials and keep those little notes and read them when the goinggets tough. You’ll see a big difference in your self-confidence in no time.Good luck!
