Do you have business confidence?
“I’m a confident man…I give people confidence.” (From Amazon Prime show Sneaky Pete) I heard that line and loved it immediately. Many business owners could use someone like that in their lives. And they certainly deserve it because running a business is hard work. It takes a lot of drive and determination, and oftentimes there’s no one around to help keep their spirits up. There aren’t enough cheerleaders in this world. But you can be your own cheerleader and give yourself more business confidence with one “trick”…
Business confidence can start, AND grow, by simply asking questions.
I had a wonderful chat, just the other day, with someone on this very subject. We talked about how to respond when you’re just starting off in business and people keep asking, “So, how’s business?” or “Are you getting clients?”
Those can be some unsettling questions when you’re first starting out as a business owner. And it seems like those questions usually come from the people closest to you. I believe it’s because these well-meaning people are afraid for you. And their own fears come out as they talk to you.
Wouldn’t it be great if everybody could just be a cheerleader? If only they could just stop asking those “fear-focused” questions. And just be there to motivate and cheer for you.
Well, you can’t control what other people do or say. But you CAN control how you talk to others. And you can work on how not to take the fearful questions personally or negatively. Your business confidence can start to grow when you train yourself to have quick, effective responses. It might not feel natural, automatically. But it will do wonders for you, when you try this one “trick”. When someone asks, “How’s business?”, you quickly reply, “It’s getting better every day!” THEN…
Immediately flip the subject back around and talk about them.
Start asking them questions. Genuine questions. Show them you care about what’s going on in their life. People love to talk about themselves. Use that to boost your own business confidence. And be sure to email me about how well it worked the first time you try this.
