How do you decide what’s possible for you?
Where do you look?
If it’s something you’ve never done before, you can’t look to the past for evidence. You won’t find it there.
You can check what other people are doing, but context matters. Your life is not the same as anyone else’s.
Here’s a method that always works:
Decide. Determine what is possible for you.
Declare. Affirm who you are to yourself.
Create. Shape the future through your actions.
The way you show up now determines what’s possible.
It’s who you are BEING that shapes your future.
Your inner stance—the way you think, feel, and act—forms your self-concept. It’s the source of your power to create.
So who are you, really?
When there’s an obstacle in your business, do you jump straight to action?
The first step is to consider the way you are BEING about it.
If revenue is down, an employee quits, or a client cancels, it’s not proof that you won’t succeed.
It’s information.
But if your self-concept says you’re the owner of a struggling business who doesn’t know what to do, you’ll take frantic action fueled by doubt.
Alternatively, if your self-concept says you’re the owner of a valuable business, you’ll see obstacles as opportunities. Challenges become information to guide your next steps. With confidence, you’ll take decisive action.
You’ll learn and grow.
Because you relate to problems as temporary obstacles.
They don’t define you.
Decide that what’s possible for you is not in question.
It’s inevitable.
What do you currently believe is impossible?
- Doubling your revenue in a year
- Working half the hours for the same profit
- Turning your services into scalable products
Lots of things once seemed impossible but are now everyday realities:
- Talking to people in real-time anywhere in the world
- Cooking with microwaves
- Flying through the air
It’s time to change your relationship with what’s possible.
Because “impossible” is temporary when you focus on who you are being.
