The more we play down, not treat ourselves as VIPs and settle for average, the lower our prices will be and mediocre results will follow.
Sometimes, to get the best results, you have to treat yourself!
Recently, I had an encounter with the MP of a firm that I had worked with for over ten years.
He told me that he thought of me often and that it was nice to run into me. We reminisced about old times and during our conversation, he mentioned that he had been indulging in first-class travel lately.
It was then I felt a sense of pride as I realized that my work with ReNew was creating a positive legacy.
Something that plagues our profession is not treating ourselves.
Too many of us in the industry tend to stay in average hotels, fly coach, drive practical cars, etc. It’s a scarcity mindset that holds us back from living our best lives. We know that the world is one of unconditional abundance, yet we limit ourselves with this type of thinking.
The more we downplay ourselves and settle for mediocrity, the lower our prices will be, and the results we produce will be average at best.
This mindset perpetuates itself, and things in motion tend to stay in motion. When we think small, we limit our potential and capabilities.
On the other hand, when we treat ourselves as VIPs, think big, and act on our dreams, we can create significant value and command premium prices.
It's important to exercise this muscle of treating ourselves and thinking big. By doing so, we can change our mindset and start to attract success and abundance into our lives.
It's time to break the scarcity mindset that holds us back and start to think big. By doing so, we can create significant value for ourselves and our clients and command premium prices.
It's time to exercise this muscle and start living our best lives!
