Transcript excerpt of a coaching-style podcast/video in which the speaker addresses the desire to "scale" personally and in business, and gives concrete mental strategies for overcoming anxiety and self-limiting thoughts. The speaker recommends creating a space between oneself and intrusive thoughts, and explicitly identifying the precise limiting beliefs as a roadmap to work on.
Everybody wants to scale. That's why you're listening to this podcast. We want to grow personally, we want to grow our business. Someone is listening, going, wait, I still have a lot of anxiety around X. When you have thoughts come in that you feel are holding you back, creating that space in between you and the thought so you're not just immediately emotionally having it. So, for example, you know, if it's like, oh, I can't do that podcast, and a lot of people just take it, take the thought and be like, okay, like, I can't do the podcast. Where I would challenge you in those moments to really start identifying those thoughts. Like, the exact particulars that are holding you back. Like, society might be like a blanket term, but like, I had little thoughts being like, well, you can't do this because. And once you kind of get really clear on those, that's the first gift, because that kind of gives you a little roadmap of what you get to work on.
