Being complacent has no role if you want to grow a successful business.

Don’t be complacent if you want to start and grow a successful business.

1 Thessalonians 5:6 So be on your guard, not asleep like the others. Stay alert and be clear-headed.

It’s challenging to be in the online space and not let distractions pull you in several directions, most leading nowhere and causing confusion.

When you are confused, your community will be confused. Confused people don’t buy.

How can you focus on being clear-headed? What action can you take to alleviate distractions and be focused on employing your God-given gifts to grow a successful business?

Be courageous and grow a successful business.

First, be courageous. Where does courage come from? From God. From believing in the power of the gifts He’s given you and that He has a purpose for you. Fear and doubt stimulated by what you see and consume online will result in a lack of action. Courage isn’t the absence of fear, but it is your decision to take action despite fear.

We know that mindset plus strategy plus action equals results. Courage is a mindset, and you can navigate your mindset so that you can take intentional action by following the strategies you’ve developed for your business.

Be bold to grow a successful business.

Second, be bold. How can you be bold when you are scared and confused, overwhelmed and frustrated, and tired and weary? Tap into the courage that He alone builds up in you. 1 Corinthians 16:13-14 reminds us to be on our guard; stand firm in the faith; be men of courage; be strong. Do everything in love.

In addition, in Joshua 10:25 we are reminded, “Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged. Be strong and courageous.

To be bold we must cast aside distractions and fear. Fear may always exist, but courage will help you take action despite the presence of fear. Take bold action to tell the world you are here to serve them in the way Christ has called you to serve using the incredible gifts He’s instilled in you.

Build a unique personal brand with a positive mindset, implement effective strategies, and take intentional action and you can grow a successful business.

Your beliefs and thoughts will determine whether you can grow a successful business.

Third, catch the negative thoughts that arise from fear - doubts, and insecurities. Paul reminds us in Romans 12:2 not to conform any longer to the pattern of this world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is – his good, pleasing, and perfect will.

Science is just now catching up to scripture when it comes to understanding the mind. Ref. Switch on Your Brain. Your mind is intricate and miraculously made. It’s powerful. In addition, you can change the neuropathways in your brain to redirect your thoughts to be more positive.  When you do so, you will take more effective action and achieve the outcomes you want to achieve.

The mindset work you do upfront will help you implement strategies for growth. It will also enable you to take more effective intentional action to produce the results you want in your business.

Being complacent will prevent you from growing a successful business.
