As a Small Business Owner, you do your best to be kind, generous, and helpful to people.
This is a good thing, keep doing it.
But do you also spend time worrying about what people think about you?
And does this sometimes keep you from taking action in your business?
There is a key distinction between caring about people and worrying about what they think about you.
You can’t control what people think about you. They will think what they want no matter what you do.
You are the only person who can control what you think about you.
So get clear about that for yourself and then you’ll be able to relax and stop stressing out about what people think about you.
Such freedom!
In this video, I share ways to shift your thoughts about what people think about you and your business.
