Like or not, emotions play a big role in how successful you are in business. This week’s topic is 5 Negative Emotions that Scare Money & Clients Away. Negative emotions around money or attracting clients to your products and services can have an undesirable impact on your results. The reason being that your emotions fuel your mindset, motivation and creativity.
And, when your emotions are negative, your thoughts are usually on the wrong thing or, on what you don’t want. By managing your emotional state and releasing them along with negative limiting beliefs, you will more naturally come into alignment with the results you want to create.
Below are the 5 most negative emotions that will have undesirable impact on your results:
How FEAR and ANXIETY Impacts your MONEY – If you find that you often have a lot of fear around being able to bring in enough money to pay your bills then you are vibrating in a way that will NOT attract the money or clients to you. You will have a much harder time generating enough confidence to serve your clients and make sales. Your prospective clients will sense the desperation because, it will come through in your language both verbal and non-verbal.
I remember years ago when my hubby and I were drowning in debt. I was in a constant state of anxiety and fear around not having enough money. My focus was in the wrong place and sure enough, the debt just kept climbing. It wasn’t until I really started to take managing my money mindset seriously that our situation began to shift. I decided to be very careful about my thoughts around what I didn’t want (more debt) and focused way more on gratitude around the money we did have. My thinking and EFT Tapping helped me really make that emotional shift so that we could begin to things around.
The Impact of FRUSTRATION on Your BUSINESS – If you are new or newer on your entrepreneurial journey then you are going to make mistakes and have set backs until you find your way with a program or product, your sales conversations or sales copy and with closing sales. It’s just part of the process but when you’re in it and experiencing those road blocks, it can be very frustrating and staying in a state of frustration can have a negative impact on both your health and your business. You are more likely to throw in the towel or burn out.
But entrepreneurs who succeed are those who have tenacity. They persevere and hold a vision in their minds of what they want to create. It fuels their passion and keeps them going when there’s a set back. So, if you let frustration get the best of you, you will be much more likely to give up. Remember that the secret to success is to keep getting back up after each failed attempt.
Winston Churchill said, “success if going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm”.
How JEALOUSY Blocks Your INCOME – If you ever find yourself looking at another person’s success and feeling jealous then you have an underlying belief in lack. You believe that you can’t have what you want and that there isn’t enough to go around. That there are limited resources. These beliefs will continue to have a negative impact on your results if you don’t release their emotional charge.
But the good news is that by releasing jealous feelings you can collapse the beliefs that fuel that emotion. The result is more peace of mind, more love and enjoyment of life. In reality, healing this emotional tendency can have a positive affect on all areas of your life.
Let go of the jealousy by accepting that you have your own gifts and talents to share with the world and can create the life you want. And by letting go of those jealous feelings you might then be able to reach out to the person who made you jealous and collaborate!!
The Negative Impact of DISAPPOINTMENT on Your BUSINESS – Feeling disappointed about your results if you’re just starting out in business is normal. We are hypnotised by the promises of instant success promised to us by the marketing gurus. But the truth is that entrepreneurs are very rarely an overnight success.
Even with following the advice of a coach or mentor, you may still experience stumbling blocks but if you persevere, each obstacle is a learning opportunity and you will find your own path to success.
Disappointment is normal on the way to reaching your goals and just a pit stop along the way. Don’t stay there overnight or you might get totally derailed. Take a break, recharge, get a massage, go to a movie and get back on the horse when you are feeling better.
Your journey doesn’t have to be an emotional roller coaster however. By working on your money mindset, you will experience disappointment far less often. There are different things you can do such as adopt a regular meditation practice, get out in nature and go for a walk or my most favourite thing of all, you can tap away the disappointment with EFT. I have noticed that I experience negative emotions far less in the last few years from using this tool.
How GUILT can Prevent SUCCESS – This is an emotion that I was very familiar with growing up. My mother used guilt as a way to manipulate us kids when she got frustrated and needed help or support rather than simply making a request for it. So for a long time, I felt guilty a lot of the time. I felt guilty when I had to go back to work after my son was born, I felt guilty when I was working on my business after work or on the weekends, I felt guilty about spending the money on tools or coaching to support me in my entrepreneurial journey.
I’ve seen guilt plague many female entrepreneurs because we are used to putting others first but, becoming a successful entrepreneur demands that you become the best version of yourself that you can be in order to achieve your vision. A person who is confidently abundant! And, you can’t become the best version of yourself when you feel guilty about putting time into your business or into your self care and mindset practice. By becoming the best version of yourself, you give so much more to others around you. They will follow your lead and strive to become the best they can be also and lead happy and fulfilled lives.
There is a reason why airlines tell you that if there is an emergency and the oxygen masks are dropped from above that you need to put yours on first. You can’t expect others to be better without setting the example yourself.
