Listen in at JackieUlmer.com/204 if you haven’t.Asking Why to Move You Through ChallengesAre you struggling with fear, procrastination, time management, lack of people to talk to or anything else in your Direct Sales business?Many of us do, and there is usually a subconscious reason we are struggling with these things, so let’s dive in, shall we?Whenever we have challenges in moving forward and taking action in your business, it is something within you that is holding you back, usually something from way back in the past.This is where being honest with yourself and going “within” can be very powerful when you work things right.Set aside some quiet time and think about all of those things that are stopping you. In fact, I recommend journaling and I’ll be sharing the power in this in an upcoming show, as this is something I committed to and stuck with this past year and WOW - is it ever enlightening.So, on a piece of paper of in your journal, write down EVERYTHING that you feel you are struggling with right now in your business.I already mentioned a few - fear, procrastination, time management, lack of people to talk to, and a few others might be finding time to follow up, negative people, objections.So, think about each one and let’s start with fear.Ask yourself - why am I feeling fear in my business?And, then pay attention to what comes up for you? What does your mind give you as an answer?Write it down, and don’t overthink it. Write down what comes to mind for you immediately.After you write that down, ask WHY, again. So, let’s say you say - I’m afraid of what other people will think or say about me.Now ask - WHY am I concerned about what other people will think or say about me.And, then write that down. And then again, ask - why.Do this at least 5 times and see how far down you can go to get to the root of what is causing this challenge for you.Reflect on each of the answers and certainly the last one you do.What does this tell you about the situation? How can you grow from this and move past it?Is this fear REAL or made up, and how much does it really matter to you?You can do this for each of your challenges and any time you are feeling stuck!You CAN become your own best coach and if you are looking for some mindset coaching, I’m here to help.
