3 Reasons Why Your Business Won’t Grow Until You Do
Welcome back to another episode of The CEO's Wing Woman®! Today, Olivia Jenkins delves into a topic she's incredibly passionate about – growth mindset. As business owners, it's crucial to recognise that our businesses won't grow unless we do. If we stop growing as leaders, our business growth will likely stagnate. In this episode, Olivia unpacks the three main mindset blocks that hold us back from achieving the level of growth we desire. Let's explore these themes and learn how to overcome them to unlock your full potential and skyrocket your business growth.
Key Takeaways:
-
Reluctance to Invest in Growth: Understanding the importance of investing in personal and professional development.
-
"I'm Too Busy": Recognising the difference between being busy and being productive.
-
Lack of Discipline: Embracing standards and discipline to build a successful business.
Reluctance to Invest in Growth: Many business owners hesitate to spend money on their own development, education, and training. This reluctance stems from a failure to understand the concept of opportunity cost – what it costs us not to invest in our growth. Growth is a lifelong commitment, and everyone should continuously learn and expand their mindset. Investing in yourself is the first step towards ensuring the growth and success of your business.
"I'm Too Busy": Feeling constantly busy can prevent you from working on your business, not just in it. It's essential to set aside 4-8 hours a week for strategy and growth-focused activities. Learn to differentiate between being busy and being productive. Prioritisation and delegation are key to staying focused on what truly matters. By managing your time effectively, you can ensure that you're always working towards your long-term goals.
Lack of Discipline: Standards and discipline are crucial for building a successful business. Reflect on your commitments and ensure you follow through to build trust with yourself and your team. Embrace a beginner's mindset to push out of your comfort zone and into the growth zone. Discipline in maintaining high standards and consistently pushing for improvement will set the foundation for sustained business growth.
