The most important thing here is just to be aware of what someone’s mind tells him/her always. Whenever faced with any challenge or disappointment, listen keenly to what goes through your mind – What do they say? Jot them down, study them then judge if they motivate or hinder development.

Are such thoughts based on facts or merely fears? Mostly these beliefs emanate from past experiences and culture.


For example, instead of thinking "starting a business is too risky", I would say "calculated risks are essential for growth." Rather than saying “I don’t have enough experience,” remind yourself  “I am quick learner who can attain various skills.”


In doing this, those negative thoughts lose their power while positive ones replace them thus pushing us ahead.




3. Seek Inspiration: Find Your Role Models and Success Stories


Fill your life with those who can help in push toward the success you desire. Know about other entrepreneurs who have gone through such hardships and eventually achieved financial freedom. Read their autobiographies, attend their seminars or listen to the podcasts.
