Ep. 132 - Business Growth Mindset

Thriving in Tandem: The podcast for married entrepreneurs

Business strategy is good but your mindset is the most important place to start. It doesn’t matter how good or how sound the strategy is, if you’re not comfortable with the change you’re not likely to execute well. Why? Because change is not comfortable no matter how big or small it is.

But whenever you’re trying to improve your situation, it is going to force you to change. And that’s where the mindset comes in. It’s really getting you comfortable to make the change. You would think if a business owner was losing six figures or more a year, they would be open to change, right? That’s not so. One of my first consulting clients was in that exact scenario but would not change. In fact, their famous saying everytime I brought up a potential solution was, “It’s not going to work. This is how we’ve been doing it for 40 years.”

From the outside looking in, it would be obvious that what was working for 40 years isn’t anymore. Change was necessary but the owner was more comfortable in his misery than going down the path of the unknown.

So if you’re looking to improve your business situation or take it to the next level of growth, listen to this episode. Get your mindset in position to grow your business.
