God cares about your thought life.

He says to “renew your mind” and “take every thought captive.”

Here’s how the importance of your thoughts applies to business:

Circumstance: Circumstances are neutral. They are facts with no inherent positive or negative value.

Thought: You interpret the circumstance through your lens - influenced by your past experiences and default thought patterns.

Feeling: Your thought about a circumstance creates your feelings.

Action: Your actions come from the thoughts and feelings you have about a circumstance.

Result: Your actions create your results.

A circumstance on it’s own can’t make you feel a certain way. It’s not until you have a thought about it that creates a feeling or action.

Here’s what I mean - Let’s compare two business owners in the same situation.

Chris and Dani are both web designers from NYC who launched their businesses 3 months before COVID happened.

Chris 👨‍💻

Circumstance: COVID hits

Thought: This is the WORST time to grow my business. The economy is tanking and everyone is cutting expenses.

Feeling: Fear, anxiety, lack of motivation

Action: Returns to 9-5 job

Result: Has no business, dissatisfied at work

Dani 👩🏽‍💻

Circumstance: COVID hits

Thought: This is the BEST time to grow my business. People are using the internet more so everyone want to optimize their websites.

Feeling: Excitement, motivation

Action: Markets her business and brings in clients

Result: Has thriving business and replaces full-time income in 1 year

Same circumstance. Same economy. Same COVID.

Different THOUGHTS ➡️ Different RESULTS

You can find evidence to confirm just about anything you believe. Economy tanking? Yup, there’s evidence. More people who want your services? Also evidence.

The question is: Which one serves you? Which one leads you to feel and act in a way that creates the results you want?

The sobering truth? The results you have right now reflect the level of thoughts you are operating from.

I help my clients identify the exact thought patterns creating their current results. Then, we get you operating from the thoughts and actions that grow your business ASAP.

Book a consult and let’s get started.
