Where your mind goes, the answers will follow! In this episode of BBTV, cofounder Christo Hall shares a life tip around the questions we ask ourselves as entrepreneurs.
Christo: Hi there! I want to share a tip today around the questions we ask ourselves. So a different start, with tip, compared to what I normally share. I was recently at a business mastermind with some amazing entrepreneurs from all around the world. We are over in Jackson‘s Hall over in Wyoming in the USA. A common question that came up amongst entrepreneurs was, “how do I grow my business without sacrificing my lifestyle?” “How do I grow this thing, like I want to grow my business but I don‘t want to give up my family life, for example, or give up my sports or give up my hobbies?”
The thinking on this, the quality of our life, as we probably all heard before, depends on the quality of the questions we ask ourselves. So the question is, why does it have to be a compromise? Why does it have to be growing my business or spending time with the family? So alternatively, we flipped the question around. This is a great outcome that came as a result of this spending time with these entrepreneurs. The question we should be asking ourselves is how can I double the business and enjoy the process? Or how can I double the business and spend more time with family? How can I double the business and play more of my sports that I love to do so much? Or common things around often people we hear things like, “oh, I don‘t want to grow a team because I don‘t want to manage people, that would be terrible.”
On the other hand, the question is simply, “how can I grow the team and love them and love the process and love every part of it?” So simply the questions we ask ourselves will result in where our mindset go to find the solutions we‘re looking for. So quality of the question we ask ourselves, people, that is the tip for today.
