There Is Nothing To Fix

Do you have that feeling that it must be something wrong with you because everyone around you is getting results in their businesses or in their careers but not you? You take a look on Facebook and you see people posting photos from their adventures while successfully running their online businesses? You start doubting yourself even more and start thinking that you have to fix something in you. That you probably have some limiting beliefs about money, not being good enough or you are lacking sales skills.

In the second year of my coaching business, I invested in a one year mentoring programme as I wanted to learn more about marketing and running an online business. I learned a lot and I got a return on my investment. At the beginning of my mentoring programme, I attended two days of a group retreat.

During one of the exercises, we were exploring what could stop us from achieving success in our businesses. Some of my colleagues were talking about money issues, feeling not smart enough or comparing themselves to others. I suddenly felt out of place as I felt that I hadn’t had any of those beliefs. ” There must be something wrong with me, too, I thought, but I really don’t know what it is.” The only thing I knew was that I wanted to work at what I love and I felt a lot of enthusiasm about starting that adventure.

After almost 4 years since that event, I finally got an answer: There was nothing wrong with me at that time and there is nothing to fix right now.

I am in the right place and doing the right things. And the same is for you. There is nothing to fix.

I am more than sure that we spend too much time exploring our limiting beliefs, doubting ourselves, thinking that we have money issues and that our mindset has to be changed in order to be successful. And at the same time, we are losing the connection with why we are starting our projects or changing careers, which is the main driver behind every success.

And yes maybe there is something that you have to improve, new skills that you have to learn like I did investing in business courses to develop my marketing knowledge. However, I did it because I felt it was the right step for me to learn more and not that there was something wrong with me.

My message for you today is: Do not overthink it, do not buy soo much into your limiting beliefs because deep down there is nothing to fix. Because your belief is just a thought you keep thinking.
