Two years ago was my last day working for someone else. I had been working on creating my own business for over a year and chose to quit my job and launch my business full time on April 1, 2020.
Of course, when I set that date, I didn’t expect that the world would be in the middle of a global pandemic and economic shutdown.
I remember saying my final goodbyes to my boss and feeling terrified that I had just made a huge mistake walking away from the security of a steady paycheck.
A friend called to congratulate me on this milestone and talk me off the ledge. She said to me, “Amy, you can choose your mindset. Instead of telling yourself, this is the worst time, choose to believe this is the BEST time to start a new business.”
My friend reminded me that although there were many things I could not control going on in the world, I could take control of my mindset.
I not only survived my first year in business, but I also exceeded my own expectations for what I could accomplish!
What’s my secret formula for achieving success in the face of obstacles?
Mindset + Action = Results!
I’ve used this formula many times in my life and career. And I’ve discovered that it can lead to good or bad results, depending on how I use it.
Positive Mindset + Positive Action = Positive Results!
Negative Mindset + Negative Action (or inaction) = Negative Results!
Adopting a positive mindset and figuring out what actions to take to achieve your goals requires a LOT of work.
I’ve found that it’s much easier, and I can accelerate my progress if I engage others to support me and hold me accountable.
How can I support you? Comment below and let me know!
Wishing you the best!
