Home Based Business Does Not Allow For Self-Doubt

By Brian Lett

A couple of the most frequently cited causes of apprehension to engage in a home based business are fear and self-doubt. These two things handicap our ability to formulate a plan of action. Alternatively, we allow the negative voices in our head to convince us that success is unlikely, therefore we fail to even try. Hence, to become a successful home based business owner, we must minimize the effects of fear and self-doubt.

Self-doubt and fear are very common. So common in fact that while many people experience self-doubt and fear at some point in their lives, they still take action. By taking action, they are able to prove to themselves that what they once doubted they are capable of, and what they once feared, they are amazing at. Conversely, others remain stagnant, and are only confident in areas of life in which they were forced to take action, such as work. Still fear overcomes them when it comes to new things such as career advancement, learning new skills, or forming new relationships.

Anyone who allows fear and self-doubt to dictate their lives are losing out on potentially life changing events. If you do not take steps for make good things happen in your life, then chances are that good things will not happen in your life. It is quite common for individuals considering a home based business to convince themselves that they will ultimately fail. Therefore, such individuals fail to take action. Of course, if you do not take action, there is no chance of success.

Nonetheless, while self-doubt and fear come in different forms, and from different sources, we can learn to dagger them. Below are ten techniques which I have actually seen deliver massive home based business success.

1. Make a list of each and every one of your fears and self-doubts. By confronting them head on, you can do away with them.

2. How do your fears and self-doubt impact your life negatively? Get a pen and paper and write these down.

3. Wait for those negative voices to come inside your head, and expose them as artificial

4. Construct a network of support by seeking individuals who experience the same issues of fear and self-doubt.

5. Sign up for a support group which is devoted to people who have similar problems, and are trying to break free.

6. Exchange your adverse messages and thoughts with those of positivity and assurance. Act in accordance with these thoughts of positivity and assurance.

7. Read articles and books which motivate you to take action.

8. Recognize your past, and leave it there.

9. Make a list of your goal, plus what you need to do to make them come to life.

10. Do something each day to bring you closer to achieving your goals. Each day that you do this, your fear and self-doubt die down.

Just realize that fears and self-doubts will always creep up from time to time for anyone with a home based business. Recognize that this is natural, even for the so-called gurus. The difference between them and you to this point is that they did not let fears and self-doubt keep them from taking action. - 31394
