When I started out in business I wasn’t willing to see what I what I was great at. Instead, I could only see the places I had failed in the past. In doing this, I always looked for where I was going to fail, and I never looked for where I could succeed.
I started out as a trade, without a great deal of education, and in the beginning, I didn’t think I had much else to choose from. Then, I started talking to other people, asking them questions and educating myself about the business realm.
When you start asking questions and being curious about what else is possible for you and your business, you open up more success.
When you ask questions, you can receive information that you had never considered. When you look for an answer, you have already decided what you need to hear.
Here are three questions to get you started:
1. What do you actually know here?
I thought I only knew what I had learned. When I started asking this question, I started realizing that I knew a whole lot more than I was giving myself credit for, and what I had been taught. For example, when it came to money and finances, I started asking “what do I actually know here,” and I went from thinking I knew nothing, to knowing a whole lot more, by asking this question.
2. What’s right about you you’re not getting?
We tend to always look for the wrongness in us, but when you ask, “what’s right about me that I’m not getting,” you start to see the possibilities in situations, rather than the wrongness.
What if nothing was ever wrong with you? What if there’s more right with you than you’ve ever acknowledged? From here, you can start displaying your greatness.
When you’re in business, or you have your own business, or you’re an entrepreneur, you must acknowledge what’s great about you if you would like to succeed. If you’re not willing to look at what’s great about you, you will keep looking outside of yourself for what makes you valuable. You are the valuable product in your life, even if you don’t believe it or know it yet.
3. What would you choose, if you knew you couldn’t fail?
I would always choose things based on whether or not I was going to fail or succeed at it and with that perspective I could never actually see beyond what I had already decided I could succeed at.
If you knew you couldn’t fail, then what would you actually be capable of? Have you ever truly desired to do something in life and failed at it? It’s usually the things we don’t desire to do that don’t seem to work out. So, is it true that you’ve failed, or do you always get more of a sense of what it is you would like to choose?
Being great is knowing that you can never fail at anything you truly desire to achieve.
When you’re willing to see what’s great about you that you haven’t been willing to look at everything gets easier. Your life and your business will start to move in the direction you would like them to, and if you keep moving and keep choosing, you will never fail to succeed.
