As a small business owner, you know by now that starting, owning, and running the daily operations of your business comes with its challenges. Sometimes, your own mindset can create some of your difficulties! We’re only human, after all, and we can’t always see how we’re stifling our own growth until we’re neck deep in the quicksand. But fear not, hard-headed friends!

Thoughts are very powerful – and they could be affecting your business! Your mindset is a self-fulfilling prophecy. When you believe something to be true, you inadvertently cause that belief to become fact because your actions will be dictated by the belief. And sometimes you may be subscribing to a mindset that may appear positive but may actually be stopping you from reaching your goals.
