There is a Buddhist principle that states, “Learn to let go.  That is the key to happiness.” 

Learning what you need to let go of in business is essential not only to your happiness, but to your financial success as well.

Here are some areas where you might need to “let go” in order to boldly expand your income.

#1)  Let go of allowing “mistakes” to defeat you. 

Things happen for a reason.  It’s our job to take a step back, learn the lesson and incorporate what we’ve learned.  Mistakes are an opportunity for growth. 

As an example – I recently felt defeated when my shopping cart sent out the wrong link (twice) to my subscribers on my high-content teleclass. I decided to make-up for this mistake by offering some complimentary “strategy sessions”.  In these conversations, that I would not have otherwise had, several phenomenal women enrolled in my upcoming Platinum coaching group! 

In essence, the “mistake”, that I briefly let bother me, turned into a wonderful opportunity to connect with some ambitious entrepreneurs (my favorite type)! 

#2) Let go of allowing fear to stop you in your tracks.

We ALL have fears and doubts.  They take us to a crossroads where we can either hold ourselves back or courageously push through our fear and enjoy rich success on the other side.

When you feel fear and doubt, ask yourself- What do I need to learn from my past experiences?  Then, incorporate those lessons, ask your coach to help you manage your fears, and keep marching forward.  A breakthrough is just around the corner!

#3) Let go of saying yes all the time.

You MUST become masterful at saying “NO” if you want a 6-figure, or high 6-figure business.   Saying yes to all your client’s requests or to solving friends or families’ problems can distract you from the bigger picture.  Agreeing to attend too many business functions or social engagements can drain your energy and sabotage your business.

Stay focused on your highest priorities, including your business goals, and get comfortable saying NO!

#4) Let go of thinking you can powerfully grow your business without investing with a masterful mentor. 

Jumping around to different workshops and events can provide some excellent information.  But it does NOT help you  masterfully align your business and add 6-figures to your income. 

In addition to cutting-edge information, you need high-level coaching to help you manage your fears and overcome the inevitable obstacles that arise. You need to invest in a mentor to help you pinpoint and implement what is missing in your business - whether it is designing your programs and services, creating a signature system, implementing effective marketing, launching your offerings, crafting your Bold 12-Month Action Plan… OR the daunting task of coordinating all of these essential components.

Let go of thinking you can do it all on your own- by piecemealing together your learning.  Rather, invest in ONE masterful mentor, who shares your values and is where you want to be.  This is the most effective way to powerfully PULL yourself forward.
