Are you suffering from stuckitis when it comes to your business? Stuckitis is a term for the failure to move forward. When it comes to your business it’s affect can create financial, mental and emotional harm.

A few explanations for this condition happening when running a business are:

• Lack of Focus
• Poor or No Goals
• No Marketing Plan

But those aren’t the cause, they’re conditions created by the real cause. The real problem is those pesky little hidden personal wounds that you haven’t healed. They block you from making progress in all parts of your life, not just your business.

Let’s say you were . . .

• Criticized a lot for being a poor writer or speaker when you were younger.
• You never felt accepted and loved by your parents.
• Your creativity was never recognized or developed.
• You felt powerless and defenseless as a child.
• You were abused in some way.
• You grew up poor and felt a sense of lack.

I could go on and on listing potential hidden wounds. Most of us have them but don’t make the connection to what’s going on in our business lives. What these wounds are doing is sabotaging your progress because somewhere inside you don’t feel worthy in some way or another.

So for now, forget about time management strategies, planning sessions, and goal setting. Let’s get down to the nitty gritty first. What is your hidden pain? To learn what it is try this exercise:

When you have a chance to be alone, turn off everything electronic and get comfortable. Close your eyess and ask yourself “What hidden wound from my childhood or early adult life is holding me back?” Just sit there and wait. The answer may pop into your mind as a word or imagines. Don’t judge what you feel. You will know you have the answer when you feel a sense of pain or loss.

If you need a little more help discovering your Hidden Business Blocks I’m here to help.

A while back I wrote a blog post about how your career evolves, not invents itself. I wrote this post from the perspective of research, observation, and personal experience.    

Well, I’m experiencing that now. Again. Let’s just say I’m being pushed to move forward with my future career plans a lot earlier than I imagined.

Here’s what is going on . . .

At the end of this month this blog will be renamed to “The Entrepreneurial Good Life”. I’m making this change because I realize that is what I am really writing about. I’m super excited to bring even more insights, stories, and how to’s on this blog about living a great life as an entrepreneur/business owner. Being a trailblazing entrepreneur is a mindset that involves a healthy mindset, body, and spiritual life. 

The Niche Clarity Coach name isn’t going anywhere. It’s only moving it to a new web page that will feature only my coaching services. Expect all these changes to be completed by November 30.

So look forward to more posts under this new path. Oh! And do me a favor:

1. Go on over and like my new Facebook page. They’ll be some surprises coming soon.
2. I’m looking to start a new series featuring entrepreneurs and their lifestyles. If you would like to be featured contact me and set up a time for an interview. 
3. Tell me what you would like to learn more about or see featured on this blog. I’m open to ideas!        
4. I’m looking for guest bloggers to write about their experiences on being an entrepreneur. Crazy start ups stories, things you’ve learned a long the way, tips and hints to make working easier, etc. Contact me with your ideas.

Last week I had the honor of speaking with Annemarie Cross on her podcast Ambitious Entrepreneur. Annemarie Cross is a coach specializing in both personal branding and social media strategies and money mindset breakthroughs.

The subject we talked about was the three motivations behind starting a business. These motivations are behind the “style” of business they create.

These styles are . . . 

• Empire Builders
• Freedom Lovers
• Altruistic Visionaries
