Overcoming FEAR and Limiting Beliefs
If you’re in sales, you’ve probably heard the word ‘no’ far more than you’ve heard the word ‘yes’. While this may sound discouraging, it can actually help you take action when you are experiencing a lack of confidence or feeling fearful. If you can accept that you’ll hear ‘no’ most of the time, that allows you to become comfortable with rejection as a part of the job. Today on the show, we tackle the concept of fear and how limiting beliefs can hold us back. We discuss some of the most effective methods we’ve discovered for tackling fear head-on and the small steps you can take now to help you achieve big things in the future. Tuning in, you’ll also learn about our top book recommendations on the subject of fear and our advice for connecting with clients, even if you haven’t spoken to them in years. If you’re interested in overcoming limiting beliefs and finding the courage to pursue your goals, then be sure to tune in today!
