I talk to people all of the time who say that they aren't living their 'best business life'. Something is holding them back and it's often quite frustrating for them.

Out of all of those people there are three main issues that are mentioned time and time again...

Imposter Syndrome

Not Enough Time

Lack Of Energy

Imposter Syndrome - is it a thing?

It's the thing that most people say is holding them back in their business.

But, do you know what?! It's not a syndrome... It's just a thought.

A cloud passing over the sun!

And I've got another thought for you - a much brighter one! You are unique - and there is nobody quite like you.

This means you aren't in competition with anyone else and Imposter Syndrome goes out of the window.

Be careful with your thoughts, they can end up controlling you.

Not Enough Time

The second most common answer is lack of time.

Now, I know that we all have the same 24 hours in a day. But, people who manage their time better achieve way more.

There are two important ways that you can use your time better...Set your priorities for the day, week, month and year - stick to them!Focus - so much time is wasted getting focused on your work. Work on that and you'll save yourself so much time!

Lack Of Energy

The third and final most common answer is lack of energy.

Working at full capacity, flat out all of the time seems impossible to achieve. And they're right. It is!

You need to replenish your energy to keep going.

However, there are ways to fill your energy cup that will stop you feeling burnt out. Everything we do either takes energy away or gives us energy. And it's working that bit out that will help you to feel more energised.

For example, for some social media is a great energiser as they enjoy posting and reading other people's news. For others, it's a huge drain and they find it both draining and un-enjoyable.The same can be said for people - some people will lift you up and some will zap all of your energy.

Keep an eye on the things that fill your cup and the things that drain it.

I hope that helps,
