How to Commit to Your Business Goals
Have you been struggling to hit your goals? Are you looking to others for advice or permission?
What if I told you that you are getting in your own way? What if you could take a couple simple steps to shift from failure or inaction to consistent and focused action?
I imagine everyone is shaking their heads "yes". Yes I'd like to get some of that!
Let's dive a bit deeper into commitment and how you can show up for yourself, your clients, and your loved ones.
I hope you joined me for the 5 day Think Like an Entrepreneur Challenge in October. We spent each day together for a short time and as a community took on some small action steps to shift our thinking.

Mindset Shift #2: From Failure to Action via Permission
Whenever I am coaching someone who is particularly stuck, I ask them what's been holding them back. 90% of the time, they are getting in their own way. They are making excuses for inaction. They say they are committed to their goals but their actions speak louder than their words.
Commitment is only one piece of the equation. You can be committed and yet fail. So what is the secret sauce?
You must start by granting yourself permission. Permission to show up fully. Permission to dream bigger. Permission to grow, learn, and thrive. And permission to fail and learn from each failure.
Check out this video on Granting Yourself Permission from Day Two of the 5-Day Challenge.
Action Steps:
- Write on a piece of paper somewhere that you give yourself permission so you don’t forget.
- Try to catch yourself when you compare & despair & use your new tools to get back on track.
Need Support?
Sometimes this process can feel daunting. Some of us may need more one on one help. Most of my clients feel this way. I am here to partner with you in creating attainable action steps side by side to get you to your desired destination.
