If you don’t like the financial results in your small business up to this point then chances are your money mindset is a factor. Money mindset is your ideas, beliefs and thought patterns around making and having money in your life.

If you have an easy time making sales and creating a six figure plus business, you most likely have a highly prosperous mindset. That means as an entrepreneur you are willing to think bigger and tackle the more challenging growth activities in your business.

But if someone tends to grapple with profitability, never has enough cash in the bank and feels frustrated by the process of marketing or sales, then that’s usually a sign of a struggle mindset.

On episode 107 of Amplify Your Success Podcast learn seven powerful prosperity mindsets designed to help you CRUSH IT this year in your money game.

Be sure to join the conversation in the Amplify Your Success Community and share your input there too.

 

Key Takeaways

  • Why money mindset is just as critical to your success as having a solid marketing strategy
  • How important commitment is since mindset alone is not enough to override distractions and common fears
  • One new mindset you MUST develop if you tend to procrastinate marketing or sales activities in your small business.
  • The difference between playing to win…and playing not to lose…when it comes to making effective growth decisions
  • The most important mindset shift a six or seven figure business owner needs, especially if they spend as much as they make!

What do you think you could achieve if you had the confidence to step into a more bold and daring version of yourself? An audacious goal? A really big vision? That idea you’ve been talking about for years and years but never find the time to finish?
