Get More Coaching Clients When You Eliminate Limiting Thoughts and Beliefs
We were all raised by parents who influenced our lives and beliefs at an early age. Some parents were better than others but our parents, teacher, family, and friends all contributed to our belief system.
Not Necessarily What They Told You
Toddlers are fearless because they have not been conditioned by society to worry about what is viewed as right or good. Unfortunately, as we age we are told by parents, teachers, and others that we have limits and lack certain qualities or abilities. They tell us that women do certain things and men others. They tell us that some thing are OK and others are not. After hearing these things for years we begin to accept them as truth. Often what others tell us is not true at all or has been untrue for many years. So don't pay attention to doubt and negativity.
Examine your existing beliefs and doubts about yourself to determine if they are true or if they are simply things that you believe just because you were told they were true. I was told that I am too emotional at work that I let things get too personal when it is just business. There may be some truth in that but as I examined that belief, I recognized that I am also passionate about what I do and my passion for my business is key to attracting others to me. I am so passionate about helping coaches succeed and my passion and belief are exactly what is attractive to my clients.
It is easy to discover our own limiting thoughts and beliefs. All you have to do is listen to your self talk. I catch myself saying to myself that I can't do this or that. When I hear my self talk that says I can't or I shouldn't then I know to take a closer look at my thinking to see if that thought is indeed true. Often the thought is false based on an old false belief. The other time is when the "Committee" is having a meeting in my head. The "Committee" is the collection of limiting thoughts and beliefs that often go off in my mind all at the same time. I know for sure when the "Committee" is in session that it is time to take a look at what I am thinking.
Take time to get a pen and paper and write down the limiting thoughts and beliefs you have and examine those to see if there is truth or if they are just beliefs that you can change. If there is truth in the belief, that is fine too because recognition of truth is the first step to change.
