Let’s talk about rejection Everyone’s favorit Let’s talk about rejection

Everyone’s favorite feeling, right?!

Haha…no

Quite frankly, most people are deathly afraid of rejection.

And this fear is one of the big things that holds people back from starting their business and getting visible.

Thoughts such as….
-What will people think of me
-What if I don’t know enough
-What if no one wants to work with me
-What if I work with someone and they don’t get results 
-What if no on likes my posts
-What if I don’t say the right thing
-What if I don’t know enough

Any of those ring true for you?

This is the thing….

When you decide to get visible and start a business, you are opening yourself up to the opinions of others….if they decide to share them.

This is the other thing….

What other people think doesn’t matter…unless you let it matter to you.

Most people don’t even know what they should do with their own life. What makes them think they know what you should be doing? Or how you should be doing it?

When you get negative feedback it is always a reflection of how what you did or said, made someone else feel. Not what you said or did.

Therefore if you make this means something about you, you are allowing someone else’s mind ‘shit’ dictate how you feel about yourself or your actions.

Craziness, right?!

This is the other thing…a lot of coaches will take actions such a creating a social media post and no one will like or comment on it…and they make this mean something about themselves and their abilities in their business.

So in their head, no comments equals
-No body likes me
-I’m a failure
-My business will never be successful
-I suck at creating content

Is this true?

No. Of course not.

This is just your THOUGHTS about what no comments means.

Become aware of your thoughts.

This is the most POWERFUL thing you can do.

The feeling of rejection is always a result of your THOUGHTS.

Nothing else.

Don’t let your thoughts stop you from going after your dreams.

PS: Do you let the fear of rejection hold you back in your business? Recognizing that this is happening is the first step to getting unstuck and moving on forward.
You will never create a successful business until You will never create a successful business until you BELIEVE that you can make it happen.

Why?

Because if you believe it will happen and expect it to happen, then you will do whatever it takes to make it happen.

If you do not believe that it will happen, you will easily give up….claiming that it was just not meant to be, you don’t have what it takes, etc.

I can’t say this enough.

Building a successful business is NOT luck. It is NOT chance.

It is a DECISION to make it happen.

So if you’re wondering if you are someone who ‘has what it takes’, instead ask yourself, ‘do I believe I WILL make it happen’? 

‘Have I decided to make it happen?’

Not making the decision to make it happen is having one foot in and one foot out.

It’s saying, ‘my business will happen if it is convenient and happens easily.’

Which for 99.9% of people it doesn’t.

If you are waiting for proof or certainty that you have what it takes or that your business will be a success, you will be waiting forever.

You will not find proof because you are doing something new.

Something you’ve never done before.

The only way to have proof is to go out and create.

So yes, this means believing in yourself and your success ENOUGH to get started and keep going UNTIL you get the results you want.

Do you BELIEVE in yourself?
Do you ever feel like the ‘work you’ and the ‘you you’ are two separate people?

That you can’t be your true self?

Do the work you’re excited about?

Do things in a way that feels aligned for your energy and schedule?

That is exactly how I felt when I was an employee.

I’d go to work feeling like I was pretending to be someone I wasn’t. It just didn’t feel right. I didn’t like being told what to do. When to do it. How to dress….

It was exhausting.

I’d spend my evenings and weekends recovering from work.

And then get up and do it again.

I dreaded going to work each day. 

I became unhappy. Depressed even.

And eventually had enough.

There was no way I was going to spend another 30+ years of my life doing this routine.

And so I decided to start my own business.

A business that gave me the FREEDOM to
Be my authentic self 100% of the time
Do work I was passionate about
Make a big impact in the lives of others
Set my own hours
Work from home, the beach, the mountains, or wherever I happened to be traveling
SAVE money
Pay down debt
Invest in the things and experiences that are most important to me
Feel financially secure…no more stressing about money

The decision to start my business was scary.

I had spent years becoming a doctor and hundreds of thousands of dollars on my education.

Was I throwing it all away?!

NO! Absolutely not!

I was following my calling to do what I was meant to be doing. What I do best. What would make me happy. What would allow me to make the BIGGEST difference.

And I’m still using much of what I learned along the way. Maybe not in the way I thought I would but that is totally okay.

It doesn’t matter what your path has looked like up to this point.

You know what you’re meant to be doing and how you want to do it.

Follow that.

Trust that.

So you can live a truly authentic life (in all areas), make a big impact and create the freedom you want.

Most people aren’t willing to take the  risk.

But for those who are, you will NEVER EVER regret it.
