What you believe about yourself may be costing you more than you think.
New research suggests that your beliefs about how the world works actually have it work that way.
How to avoid limiting beliefs and use this new found power to your advantage is next on The Coaching Hour Minute
I’m Jason Jones. According to new research out in a new book The Believing Brain we don’t actually see reality for what it is.
Our brain constructs a reality based on our beliefs and collects evidence from the external world to reinforce it. For example, if I am selling widgets and I believe that I am bothering people when I make a sales call all of my behaviors set up the other person to experience being bothered. We pay attention to and remember those times people were really annoyed by our contacting them reinforcing the belief that selling what I have to offer bothers people. The result is that I get good at bothering people instead of connecting them to the solution I’m selling to make their life better. Knowing this about your brain can be a new found power. You can choose to believe that everyone can benefit from the solution you are selling. When you call on people and share what you have, your behaviors will communicate that you have something useful, exciting and worth looking at. You actually start getting good at getting people excited about what you have to offer. Consider looking at your beliefs and whether they actually support the results you want. Then consider new beliefs you can adopt and take action around to have this knowledge about your brain work in your favor.

Have you invented your future or you are going to take what you get when you show up there?
You may not be enjoying the success you want because of what you tell yourself about your future.
How to avoid that pitfall is next on The Coaching Hour Minute
Stories we tell ourselves about what we think is possible influences the decisions we make. Brian David Johnson, a futurist at Arizona State University’s Center for Science and Imagination recently spoke in a story for public radio’s Marketplace Morning report. He said that he has learned that way you change the future is you change the story you tell yourself about the future you will live in. If your story is that you’re going to build a successful multi-million dollar business, and you keep taking actions toward that goal, even if your current circumstances don’t support that idea you are much more likely to have that future than if you story is you can never have a business that successful because of the competition, the market, the customers, etc. I invite you to create a powerful story about your future that inspires you and then keep taking actions toward it and sees what happens.
