Don't Fake It. You Can Make It.
Are you tired of feeling like you have to fake it until you make it? Do you constantly doubt your abilities and feel like a fraud in your business? It's time to shift your mindset and embrace your knowledge and strengths.
Here's the truth: you know more than you think you know.
You've gained knowledge and experience through your past successes and failures, and you have the ability to bridge the gap between where you are now and where you want to be. But that doesn't mean you have to do it all alone.
One way to bridge the gap is by learning from free resources.
There is a wealth of information available online through blogs, podcasts, and social media. Take advantage of these resources and use them to expand your knowledge and skills. (If you haven't seen it already, there's a link to our free social media workshop at the bottom of this blog).
Here's some podcast episodes that I have been loving lately:
Pia Silva shares her strategies for taking time off (and not feeling guilty or overwhelmed) on this episode of the No BS Agency podcast.
"The Iron" Mike Steadman talks about attracting customers with rockstar entrepreneur and restaurant owner Andre Truss on this epidode of Dog Whistle Branding.
Jasmine Star helps you map out your next 3 months in less than 30 minutes in this episode of The Jasmine Star Show.
“You have what it takes to succeed. By leveraging your strengths and learning from others, you can bridge the gap and achieve your goals.”
When I was in elementary school, I played in a weekend basketball league. For two seasons in a row we won every single game. This fourth-grader was feeling pretty awesome about her dribbling skills.
Turns out, I was just on a good team. There were three super-fast, super-talented players on that team who played with me. Their height, raw talent, and teamwork was the reason we kept winning. You're only as strong as your team.
That's why another way to bridge the gap is by depending on others.
You don't have to be an expert in every aspect of your business. Lean into your strengths and outsource the rest. Hire a virtual assistant or a bookkeeping pro to handle tasks that aren't in your wheelhouse. Not only will this free up your time to focus on what you do best, but it will also result in higher quality work.
The key is to approach challenges with determination and optimism. Embrace a scrappy "can-do" mindset and don't let self-doubt hold you back.
You have what it takes to succeed. By leveraging your strengths and learning from others, you can bridge the gap and achieve your goals.
