Are You Afraid of Making Mistakes? I know it sounds like a silly question, but so many people deal with it! If you are in business… if you were an entrepreneur… if you are in network marketing… If you have any desire in your life to accomplish something great! Mistakes are actually part of the process!
The problem is that so many times we get in our head about it. We deal with self-doubt, and it is sometimes challenging to push past the fear that nags us on the inside.
I was recently listening to some of the top entrepreneurial women. They were interviewed by Forbes Magazine. And one lady, who made her money in Real Estate said
“Success is Failure turned inside out. If you are afraid to fail, you will never truly succeed!”
Wow! What a message!
Whoever came up with the idea that mistakes are bad anyways?
Mistakes are essential! They are part of growth! They are part of the process! Without mistakes you cannot actually win. Unless of course you do nothing with your life… If you live a life of mediocrity, it’s much easier to not make mistakes. But if you’re going all out, if you are striving, pushing, going for the next great thing in your life. You will make mistakes! So it’s time to become “okay” with the fact that you will make mistakes!
There are Four Phases of Learning…
Phase One: The Unconscious Incompetence Phase
This is when you do something and you don’t know that you’re bad at it. It’s hilarious! Because you get out there and you try to do something…And you just do your best! But in reality there is definitely room for improvement…ei your bad at it! LOL!
Phase 2: The Conscious Incompetence Phase
This is where you know that you’re bad. You’re out there, you’re trying, you’re learning, you’re striving and you know you’re making mistakes. And going through the learning curve. Sometimes this is where people actually quit. Once they discover that they’re not doing everything “perfect”, their inner Self Doubt gets the best of them and they throw in the towel.
This is where you must continue to push through as an entrepreneur. Your mindset must be strong. And you must have the faith and belief that you can get better.
Phase Three: The Conscious Competence Phase.
This is where you actually start getting good. You’re out there, you have been doing your thing, and you’re getting some great results. This is a great spot to be! But often times people fall off before they ever make it here! So trusting and believing in yourself is key in getting to this point.
Phase Four: The Unconscious Competence Phase.
This is a phase we all hope to get to! This is where you’re good. And you’re actually so good that you could almost do it in your sleep!
Kind of like driving your car… Do you remember when you first got started? You were so nervous… You were acutely aware of everything that must be done. And you did it as good as you could but even in the process, you still made mistakes… After a while, when you’d been driving for a little bit, it starts to become like second nature. Now you might drive to the store, or to your house and you don’t even remember driving there! You are at the Phase Four Stage of learning The Unconscious Competence!
So this is how things go in life and business. In your network marketing business you will need skills for you to succeed. Skills on connecting with people, skills on presenting, skills on prospecting, skills on leading a team. You must believe that you can do it. You must silence the voices of negativity in your head, or from outside places. You must go through the learning process and make mistakes! It is essential for your success!
Persevere. Know that mistakes are okay. They’re actually necessary. And let’s go out there and get the job done.
No one called for you to be perfect, but you were called to take action! You were call to make a difference. So let’s get in to action! And go out there and get everything that God has in store for you! Leave nothing unfinished. Let’s go out there and get you to the finish line!
