This Is the Thing That Keeps Most People Poor

Summary

• One entrepreneur I know was a high-level CrossFit games competitor who created a fitness app.
• Despite placing fourth in multiple competitions, which is impressive, he believed he didn't deserve to promote his app because he wasn't a top winner.
• He only shared the app with his gym members, even though it was really good.
• A client who was a marketer convinced him to make just one post about the app.
• By making one post, he doubled his revenue from $20,000 a month to $100,000 a month in a couple of months.
• The big lesson here is that changing your beliefs about what you deserve can significantly impact your business.
• Don’t let self-doubt prevent you from sharing valuable products or services.

How To Take Action

I would suggest implementing a few key strategies to get started. First, **
recognize the value of your products or services
**. Many people, like the CrossFit competitor, don't realize how valuable their offering is because they focus on their perceived shortcomings. If you've created something useful, share it confidently.

A good way of doing this is by **
making a simple post on social media
**. You don’t need big ad campaigns. Just one well-crafted post can make a big difference. Share what you're offering, how it can help people, and why you're passionate about it. This low-cost action can exponentially increase your visibility and revenue, just like it did for the fitness app creator.

Next, **
seek feedback from your existing clients or users
**. They can provide testimonials or share their experiences, which can be invaluable. This feedback not only boosts your confidence but also serves as social proof for potential new customers.

Additionally, **
surround yourself with people who believe in you and your product
**. They can push you when your self-doubt takes over, much like the marketer did for the CrossFit competitor. This doesn’t cost money but adds immense value to your mindset and approach.

Finally, **
challenge your limiting beliefs
**. Ask yourself if they are based on facts or just perceptions. Are they really holding you back from promoting something great? By changing your mindset, you open up numerous possibilities for growth and success.
