🌱 **Resilience: The Secret Ingredient to Lasting Success** 🌱 How do you respond when things go wrong? The path isn't always smooth in business (just like life). You hit bumps, experience setbacks, and sometimes land flat on your face. The key to thriving through it all? **Resilience.** Here’s how to build it: 🔍 **Learn from Failures**: Failures aren’t the end—they’re just *detours*. Each setback gives you valuable lessons to fine-tune your strategy. Don’t just move on—*improve*. 🤝 **Build a Support Network**: No one succeeds alone. Surround yourself with advisors, mentors, or peers who’ve been there and done that. When things get tough, these people offer real perspective and encouragement. 🏃♂️ **Focus on the Long Game**: Business success is more marathon than sprint. Stay patient and persistent, and remember that consistency over time beats bursts of short-term energy. Resilience is your business superpower. It doesn’t just help you survive the tough times—it helps you thrive through them. 💪 #BusinessResilience #Leadership #GrowthMindset #EntrepreneurLife #LongGame

When my business failed, it felt like my world had ended. But the truth is, no one is coming to save you... Yes, there were small olive branches, kind words and offers of help, but it was upto me to pick myself up and rebuild. When your business fails, people see you differently. Investors rightly disappear, partners pull back, friendships are lost and opportunities vanish. You go from being celebrated to being ignored, stepped over like you’re invisible. It’s brutal, but it’s reality. Here is what I learned... 𝐑𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐢𝐬𝐧’𝐭 𝐨𝐩𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥. No one will hand you a second chance. You have to create it yourself. 𝐂𝐥𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐬 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐨𝐬. When everything falls apart, you finally see what really matters in business and life. 𝐘𝐨𝐮’𝐫𝐞 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐧 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐤. I never imagined I’d bounce back, but failure taught me how to persevere. 𝐏𝐫𝐞𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐢𝐬 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠. You can’t wing your way to success. Failure exposes the gaps you ignored. 𝐅𝐚𝐢𝐥𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐟𝐮𝐞𝐥. If you use it right, it will push you further than success ever could. #Leadership #Entreprenuership

Are you a #Founder or an #Entrepreneur thinking about getting started? Have you ever felt #overwhelmed by the need to have more information before making a #decision? Then don't get stuck in the analysis paralysis! Let me talk about the 40/70 Rule by Colin Powell which will help you to take those decisions easily. Here's the key towards understanding the process of decision making. Firstly Analyse the percentage of information you have gathered then put them under these two categories 1. 40% - If you believe you are 40% ready towards starting then don't start now. Gathering more data is crucial before taking an action. 2. 70% - But If you believe you are almost 70% done then that is your starting point. You might overthink and miss the opportunity so start now and learn along the way. 💡Takeaway : Don't wait for perfection. Start with a solid foundation, take action and leverage your intuition. You always grow as you gain more experience in life. 📌P.S. What are your ways of making a decision? Share you thoughts in the comments below. If you want to learn more tips and tricks.

Hard work beats luck every time. Effort and persistence create success, not luck. Success often seems like luck to those who don't see the countless hours of focus and dedicated work behind it. According to a study by Harvard Business Review, 78% of entrepreneurs attribute their success to hard work and perseverance over natural talent or luck. Every achievement is built on a foundation of effort, consistency, and grit. How to create a clear path: Define what success looks like for you. Understand why you want to get there. What’s the mission or purpose that’s driving you? Keep working towards your goals, even when progress seems slow. Even one step forward is one step closer to your goals. View obstacles as opportunities to innovate and think outside the box. Acknowledge and reward your progress along the way. Keep generating those dopamine hits to stay the course. Remember, every step you take and every challenge you overcome brings you closer to your goals. Reflect on your journey. Identify one area where your hard work has paid off and celebrate it. Take note of where you are, fine tune as needed. Keep pushing forward with the knowledge that your effort makes all the difference.

🚀 The Science of Keeping Promises Keeping promises to yourself isn't just feel-good advice—it's backed by science. Every time you follow through on a commitment, you're training your unconscious mind to prioritize your success. This isn't a fluffy aspiration; it's about rewiring your brain to align resources with your goals. Whether you dedicate an hour to your business plan, carve out time for self-care, or make room for fun, each promise you keep sends a powerful message: you are a priority. Your unconscious mind is an incredible tool, working behind the scenes to organize the resources you need to achieve your outcomes. When you consistently keep promises, you strengthen a foundation of self-belief. It's like giving your brain a blueprint for success. So stay committed. Your future self will thank you for it.🌟 I’m rooting for you always, Brenda 💗 👉 Follow @brendaterryco for more entrepreneur mindset insights 🙏 ⬇️ Save this for later.  • • • • #femaleentrepreneurs #businessgrowth #nlpcoaching #womeninbusiness #mindsetmatters #nlpcoach #mindsetcoach #leadership #bethechange
