“My Business is Different”

 

“I think it is helpful to recognize your uniqueness in the world and in your business, but it is definitely not helpful to be shut off to advice and education and information.”


You’re not a special snowflake, even though you might think you are.

Today on the show, we’re discussing exceptionalism and why this thought isn’t helpful for the growth of your business. 

You’ll hear how holding tightly to the “but, I’m different!” identity can hinder your success and why it doesn’t excuse or exempt you from the rules of business.

We talk about the different ways you can encounter the “exceptional” feeling and share a few key factors that you should be focusing on as you work toward business growth. 

Let it be a relief that the rules of business apply to you too because now you can formulate a game plan to master them. Happy listening!

Here’s a sneak peek of what we discuss:

  • How holding onto the “But, I’m different!” identity can prevent you from achieving your full potential.

  • Why being unique doesn’t excuse or exempt you from the rules of business. 

  • Do you want to be right, or do you want to be happy?

  • Different ways people encounter the “exceptional” feeling in business.

  • What sets entrepreneurship aside from what our culture (currently) cultivates.

  • Training your brain to focus on developing the relationship with your audience (during the germination stage of business). 

  • Why you should reward yourself for taking consistent steps.

  • A caveat for your growth strategy. 

  • What happens when we feel uncomfortable with our business's growth.

  • The importance of focusing on growing your audience. 

  • Why you need to be able to communicate well as a business owner.
