Summary:

This time of pandemic can either define and diminish or develop us. These words of Jim Kwik from his book ‘Limitless’ ring true in our midst today. And most of the takeaways we get from his book are ones that point to reaching our goals. Even in this trying time, we can always steer the course of our business towards success.

The first thing we should need to be aware of is our mindset. Yes, this is one big thing to consider. It is either we downgrade or upgrade it. Don’t say, ‘Can I do it?’, think about ‘How can I do it?’. We need to have a proactive mindset and a winning attitude despite it all. We need to show up and get rid ourselves of false and limiting beliefs. Those self-talks that are not getting us somewhere is a waste of our time. It is about time to do away with the LIE - Limited Idea Entertained. Don’t let a bad thought put you off your track. Only think of all the possibilities that abound. It is also important that something pushes us to action and this is where motivation plays a big part. Get all the reasons why you need to take up those actions. Fill up your calendar with activities that light you up and move you into action. Keep that passion burning and live that purpose for which you are set out to do. That will keep you further ahead. What better idea to do than tapping the emotion and that is thinking of the rewards and consequences.

In this time, with all that’s bothering us and taking away our attention, we can’t help but get overwhelmed. There is this one thing to keep in mind that is very useful, and that is, start with simple small steps. This will ultimately lead you to do bigger things. If there is one thing you need to do in your business right now then do it, it is only a matter of doing that one small thing to keep you doing a lot more and keep you closer to your goal. And then the last but not least key to your success is the methods. You can have all the mindset and the motivation to do things but if you don’t have the strategies and systems on how to go about in reaching your goal then you are going to do a lot of things with little results. That is imperative of you to find the means to save you time, a system that is reliable and repeatable.

“One of the things that we can do to upgrade our mindset is to get rid of these false beliefs, these false stories that we tell ourselves.”

Key Takeaways:

“Instead of saying, ‘I don't think I can do it’, say, ‘How can I do it?’ ‘How can I hit those goals?’” - April Meese

“If you're consistently having negative talk, right, if you're consistently negatively talking to yourself, that's the way the program is going to run.” - April Meese

“Remember those three questions that you ask yourself? What do I believe is possible? What do I believe I am capable of? Because you might believe it's possible for somebody else but you might not believe that you are capable of and what do you believe you deserve?” - April Meese

“Passion is what you do for yourself, purpose is what you do for others. So tap into that purpose, that bigger why of what you're going to do, the reason that you want to do it.” - April Meese

“If you can start by those simple steps, those simple steps will lead to more, it will lead to you doing more. So start with simple and that way it doesn't feel overwhelming.” - April Meese

“When you look for possibilities when you look for what you're grateful for, your business will continue to grow.” - April Meese

“Methods are the right strategies and systems to get you to your goal.” - April Meese

“You can have a great mindset and be like, I'm ready to do this and motivated, you tapped into your why and all of the other things. But if you don't have a way of getting there, if you don't have a strategy for marketing your business, if you don't have systems to save you time, you're going to chase all of these shiny objects.” - April Meese
