Why you need a Fabulous File
Understanding and taking control of your internal dialogue is one of the most powerful skills you can develop as a business owner. Your thinking creates your feelings and your feelings create your actions or inactions, which then lead to your results. But sometimes simply grabbing hold of your thoughts is just not enough to turn them around.
I believe we often need something more tangible when self-doubt comes to visit. You need a Fabulous File. I believe this is essential for every single woman who wants to create an impact, who wants to make a difference, who has a contribution inside of her that's being channeled through the lens of business.
In this episode, I'm going to explain what a Fabulous file is, why it's so important, and how you can actually get started on creating one today.
How do you get started?
- Set aside some time – I guarantee you will find yourself disappearing down a rabbit hole of memory gazing... in a good way.
- Purchase a box that delights you – even consider decorating it if you are creatively minded
- Don’t restrict yourself to just testimonials – good feelings are transferable – where else have you been fabulous in life? Where have you been brave? Where have you stepped out of your comfort zone>? Where have you stepped up and reached a goal or done something you dreamed about?
What can you include?
Here are some suggestions:
- Cards from my kids telling me I’m a great Mum
- Photos of holidays with friends
- Boarding passes from overseas trips – first conferences for MY business
awards night program from the network I used to run - Photos from retreats
- Thank you cards from clients
- Photos of flowers I’ve been sent
- Screenshots of social media comments
- Printed out emails of thanks and appreciation
- The messages from Linked In connection requests
- Photos from Next Chapter Dinners I’ve hosted
- Podcast reviews
- Screenshots of newsletter subscribers – hitting a # you’ve been aiming for
- A photo of the home page of your new website just launched!
- A screenshot of your bank account when the funds arrived from a big project
The fuel for this fire is never-ending and the lift begins to happen from the moment you begin your search for the evidence…
