Don’t Let Fear Of Failure Get In The Way Of Starting Your Own Business From Home
Growing up we all learned specific behaviors and ideas based on the opinions of others. Our parents, grandparents, school teachers, Sunday School teachers, coaches, just anyone and everyone who had a part in our upbringing. From the time we were born, we began filing the information in our sub-conscience and now as adults we have specific ideas about ourselves and how we relate to everything in life. Money and success are a couple.
These very belief systems cause us to fearful of going after what you want, even in considering how to start a business from home. We don’t even explore the options.
So many people deep down want to have so much more in life but clearly are held back by belief systems they developed over the years. Here are a couple common belief systems that do not serve us, just to name a few:
1) I’m not good enough
2) Money is bad
3) I’m stupid
4) I can’t learn
5) Success is only for a certain class or breed of people
6) I’ve failed in the past, so I’m destined for failure my whole life
Where on earth did we start thinking like this? When we were born, God gave us all the characteristics and desires for success in life. Think about it. Here are some commonalities in small children, just to name a few:
1) Doesn’t hold a grudge
2) Takes risks
3) No fear of anything
4) Loves to talk to people
5) Show no prejudices
6) When they fall, they get back up and try again
7) They believe they can be anything when they grow up
8) Forgives instantly
At what point did all this change? Who was responsible for the change? Our fears are based on years of hearing the wrong stuff that sets us up for failure as adults. Even in high schools for the most part, business ownership is not taught. The diploma we’re working for is based on an educational system that teaches how to be good employees. Wouldn’t it be nice if teenagers could learn the concepts on how to start a small business from home.
A really good book that discusses our money blueprint and belief systems is called “The Secrets of the Millionaire mind”, by T. Harv Eker. Once we can identify our money blueprint and files in our sub-conscience mind that don’t serve us, then we know what files to change so we can achieve that success we so desire.
If you’re seriously interested in starting your own business from home, understand that personal development (the inner self, the mindset) is the foundation, the cornerstone, if you will, of your success. Many times this personal development is completely ignored, however, it’s exactly what keeps our head in the game during tough times.
There’s great freedom in running a business from your home, being available to your family and friends, to the community and to yourself, enjoying life and not worrying about paying the bills. The rewards of overcoming fears to achieve time and financial freedom are so worth it. It’s not easy, but it’s worth it for those who desire it badly enough. A great place to start would be to make a list of all the fears keeping you back then identify where the fear is rooted so you can begin to deal with it.
