  • #4 The Real Reason You're Procrastinating

    #4 The Real Reason You're Procrastinating
    Jun 14 2022
    “I know what to do, I understand the natural next steps in my business, but I just don’t do it. Instead, I keep wasting time doing non essential tasks. I feel like I have zero self-discipline… I wish I knew how to change that. “

    Sounds familiar?

    Procrastination happens to the best of us, and believe it or not, it doesn’t always come from a lack of motivation or self-discipline.

    In fact, more often than not, it comes from your mind perceiving risk, perceiving a gap between your self-confidence and your self-esteem.

    It’s in that gap that Impostor Syndrome shows up and tells us things like “ Who do you think you are?” or “Nobody really cares what you have to say”.

    Subconsciously, this makes us delay taking action so we will draw the conclusion that we’re lazy, or not self-disciplined.

    Today, you’ll learn about what impostor Syndrome really is, why it happens, and simple powerful tips to shift your mindset and overcome it.

    Show notes:

    * Practical tips to help Impostor Syndrome with self-confidence.
    * Tips to help Impostor Syndrome with self-esteem and why this is essential for the growth of your business.
    * A look at how mindset work can help with Impostor Syndrome.
    * One simple shift you can make to bring you back into service mode.
