The email was sitting in my inbox with the subject line, “Who you are makes a difference”. I thought to myself, “Great, another one of those schmaltzy forwards.” However, I felt compelled to click on it and give it a quick read through, since a client had sent it to me. Within the contents of the email, a true story unfolded about a New York City teacher who decided to honor her students by letting each of them know how they had made a difference in her class.

I can’t begin to count how many times I’ve felt discouraged or fearful as I’ve built my business over the past seven years. When I first became certified as a business coach I remember thinking to myself, “Who am I to be telling self-employed professionals and solo entrepreneurs how to build their businesses and live their lives when I’m brand new and just starting out!”

I was facilitating an on-site training for a business recently. Several times during the training the request was made by the employees, “for managers and leaders to acknowledge the positive.” I have found this to be a common theme in most every business. Employees often feel like the only time they get attention is when they are doing something wrong instead of when they are doing things right. This is why I intentionally choose to begin my leadership training's by having the owner acknowledge something that they sincerely appreciate about each of the leaders.

1. Set intentions. Identify what you want to achieve on during your retreat. Keep in mind there isn’t any right or wrong way to set intentions. It’s just a matter of what you want to focus on during your time together. Last year, for example, my husband and I wrote our intentions down on paper and then taped them to a wall to serve as a constant reminder of what we intended to accomplish and how we wanted to spend our time.

Over the last few months I’ve experienced several exciting breakthroughs in my business. Yet some of these breakthroughs were immediately followed by “breakdowns” where I found myself seriously doubting my ability to achieve a particular vision or goal that I had set for myself. Recently I committed to taking a bold stand to be not only “an entrepreneur who lives and loves richly – but to also be someone who is a stand for EVERY entrepreneur living and loving richly.”

A common assumption that I had always made in my business in the past was thinking that in order to make more money and achieve my desired income goal I simply needed to focus on taking “the right actions.”

It seems like most of my life I’ve expended a great deal of energy and attention on trying to control others and everything around me. I kept a diary growing up. One entry read, “My mom got mad at me today. I’m going to promise to be a better person so she won’t get mad at me next time. This is what I’m going to do: I’m going to do my chores around the house without being asked, do my homework and I’m going to be really nice to everyone in my family.”

In coaching women entrepreneurs to transform their relationship with money in their business, marriage and life, I’ve noticed that there are three common money beliefs that consistently come up that contribute to stress, struggle and overwhelm and ultimately cause them to stay stuck at their current income level… Belief #1. “I’m not good at making money.” This was a big belief that held me back for years in my business. I didn’t relate to being a powerful money creator. I could only relate to managing money – not creating it.

One of the common complaints I hear from women entrepreneurs is that they avoid focusing on the top-income producing tasks in their business. They habitually occupy themselves with busy work that doesn’t result in higher paying clients or more income in the door. Here is a simple tip you can use to move from feeling stuck and frustrated to getting motivated and staying on track with the very tasks that you’ve been putting off or avoiding.

There’s nothing quite like money to prompt our egos to flare up, get our stomach wrenched in knots and cause us to get instantly reactive and defensive. Some of the ways I’ve seen money struggles arise is when I hear my clients say things like: • “I know I need to be more aware of how much money is in my accounts and what my credit card balances are, but I tell myself I’ll just do it later. That time never comes and before I know it several months have passed and I’m still avoiding gaining clarity around what’s going on with my money.”
