Feeling lost and lacking passion in your business? Discover how Q Branch Consulting can help you prioritise mindset to reignite your entrepreneurial spirit..
I've fallen out of love with my business.
Is this something you feel? You started a business and now you just feel like you’ve got a job without the perks, and you are struggling to muster any interest in what you are doing. Each morning you wake up and wonder why you are bothering. You are unfit, exhausted, the family is nagging because they never see you and even thinking about going on holiday is impossible.
We can assure you; you are not alone.
Most people go into business because they want more freedom, to be their own boss. Some even want to make a difference in the world. But they find themselves struggling to make the maths work. The amount of time, energy, and commitment it takes far outweighs the financial and emotional pay off.
Then a company like Q Branch Consulting approaches you and says, “we can make it better if you focus more on what your clients want and align that with your values”. Sounds wonderful and simple. What other companies may not say to you is, “you also have to work on yourself while we work on the business”. But we do. And it’s non-negotiable.
The reason for this is because we know that when you want to make big changes in your business, and you are already feeling a bit lost and frustrated, looking after your mindset is priority. The rest of it is pointless if you don’t do that.
Why is my mindset important to my results?
You can have the best logo, the best website, the best strategy (and Matt is definitely up there with the best in Jenny’s humble opinion), but without that information going into a mind ready to receive it, the disappointments just keep coming. And we take pride in our clients doing well. We want to shout about your achievements. It doesn’t feel good for us if we put our energy into something and our clients fizzle out because they can’t commit any more energy.
We had someone approach us and say, “we want the branding, but we don’t want the coaching”. We always wonder what they are avoiding. If you don’t do anything with the coaching, that’s on you, but at least try it first. And just because you’ve had a coach before, doesn’t mean you will get the same. Every coaching situation is unique because each coach is unique.
The Roots Create the Fruits
We were at a conference recently and it was based around money mindset but there was also a huge leaning towards business and emotional wellbeing. They had a phrase that stuck with us; “It’s the Roots that create the Fruits” (T. Harv Eker). What this means is, if you have an apple tree and you take off all the apples and staple oranges on, it is still an apple tree and next year it is going to grow apples. For it to become an orange tree, you have to plant an orange seed to grow a different root system and therefore the fruit will change too.
If you are wondering why your results are not what you would want them to be, look at what you are planting first. If you keep getting apples but are expecting oranges, it could be down to the root system.
However hard we try, often we gravitate back to our upbringing and early years programming, especially during stress. If you wonder why you keep going back, even after perhaps doing some work with a business mentor, it’s time to look at what you can change in your mind. Our minds are the most powerful thing we have that can work for, or against us.
We work on our mindset every day in Q Branch and would love to help you with yours so you can have the best business possible. We love helping business owners re-kindle their passion by combining the practical skills of a business with creativity and mindset. If you are resistant to the mindset work, feel you are far beyond that so it can’t possibly be beneficial to you because you are too enlightened, perhaps it’s time to take a step backwards and ask what roots you have planted.
If you want to reignite the passion, book a first date with us (if you are worried about that sort of commitment, we won't be upset if you don't want a second date).
