It’s not just a lucky trick of fate that makes some people more successful with their businesses than others. A majority of entrepreneurs make no secret of the fact that they read self-improvement books and attend seminars. This is one factor that sets the successful person apart from the not-so-successful. They know how important it is to analyze and work on how they think and concentrate on doing just that. If you find that you have hit a plateau, or you cannot get off the ground no matter what, then perhaps try a different approach. Keep a little notebook handy and write down any thoughts that automatically come to mind that have to do with your business. Especially be aware of any limiting thoughts and look for a pattern. Objectivity is the secret to discovering, if you can, the behaviors you exhibit that might be holding your business back. Very often you will find clues hidden in plain sight.
