When you're struggling in Business, it's easy to see yourself
wrapped in chains, struggling to break free from failure. What
if I told you the key to those chains might be located within
your own mind? If you're ready to step out into freedom, let's
look at how your beliefs might be inhibiting the success you
crave.

Inhibiting Belief Number One: Nice People Don't Do Sales

Whether your product is coaching or castor oil, you're going to
have to sell it to someone else to be successful. For many
entrepreneurs, the commitment to success ends when it comes time
to actually market their products. They're great at visualizing,
designing and creating products, but they'd really rather not
have to ask someone to buy them.

The underlying belief keeping them from success may be that
"Nice People Don't Do Sales." Before you discount that entirely,
consider the stereotypes you've heard about used car or
door-to-door salesmen. Society, in general, has embraced the
notion that selling is somehow unsavory.

Here's the truth that will unlock your chains: Some of the
nicest people you know are in sales! They're the business owners
who find the people best served by their products and make them
available at a reasonable price. They're the gifted folks who've
developed ways of helping others succeed and are reaching out to
a grateful audience in return for a fee.

Learning to market your products effectively makes you a savvy
business owner, period. Free yourself from the notion that
offering quality products for a reasonable price is anything
other than good business.

Inhibiting Belief Number Two: Asking for Money is Rude In a
fantasy world, we could have anything we'd like without having
to pay for it. In the real world, we expect to pay for the
things we need and want. The products you've worked so hard to
create are no different. Reasonable people expect you to ask for
money when you deliver the goods.

Here's probably what's at the root of your anxiety, if you
somehow feel rude when quoting a price - someone along the way,
a parent, perhaps, told you it was rude to talk about money.

Let's separate the wheat from the chaff' bragging about how much
money you make at a dinner party may be rude, but quoting a
price to a customer to complete a transaction is what's at the
core of every business.

Inhibiting Belief Number Three: Entrepreneurs Don't Have "Real"
Jobs

Here's one that's pervasive in Western cultures. From the time
they start school, youngsters are guided toward "real" jobs like
being accountants, doctors or attorneys. The problem is that
many people feel a pull to own a business and serve the public
some other way.

Striking out in the world of entrepreneurship can be lonely if
friends and family keep asking when you're going to find a "real
job." If you're struggling to become successful marketing your
products or services, you may have doubts that what you're doing
is legitimate.

Here's a reality check: if you've created quality products and
are offering them in ethical ways to serve the needs of others,
you have a "real" job! You're part of what keeps economies
growing. As a business owner and entrepreneur, you're in great
company with others who are willing to take big risks for big
payoffs.

If you begin to doubt yourself, and thereby sabotage your own
success, consider the contribution pioneers in technology and
industry have made. I'm willing to bet someone, somewhere along
the way, told each of them to "get a real job" instead of
working past obstacles and creating their own success.

Marketing and sales are what keeps the business world turning.
Nice people all around you ask other people for money in return
for great products. And being an entrepreneur is as real as it
gets in the world of business. Free yourself from the
self-sabotaging beliefs that can keep you from enjoying success.
Stop apologizing and start enjoying the benefits of being the
best at what you do.
