“To excel at the highest level – or any level, really – you need to believe in yourself, and hands down, one of the biggest contributors to my self-confidence has been private coaching.” – Stephen Curry
What the mind can conceive, it can achieve. Sometimes our biggest enemy is what lies between our ears. Our mind is very powerful so we must be very intentional about speaking positive things in our lives. This week guest on The Entrepreneurial You podcast , Dr. Cheryl Wood reminds us to have a positive mindset as she inspires us from her journey.
Here is a snippet of what Cheryl shared:
“The most negative mindset is I’m not good enough. I’m not capable. I’m not worthy just as I am. I need more. I need something more. So they keep going out trying to find the next thing and the next thing and get more and get another degree and get another certification; and believe me, ongoing education and knowledge is so critical so important right? We have to continue to add. However, someone somewhere is waiting on what you already know, that they’re waiting for right now. So you gotta get out of that mind frame that you are not good enough. Just because there are people who are already 20 steps ahead of you, everybody’s not at that level where they’re ready to invest in that coach who’s already placed ahead of you.
There are some people who are at the beginning of their journey who need what you know right now because you know more than they know. Just get that out of your mind that you’re not enough. You are enough. You are capable and you are worthy just as you are.”
