There is still a lot of scary stuff out there even though the government says that the recession is over.
When I meet a new client, I always ask one question. What is keeping you up at nights?. If you ask farmers that question, they all say the same thing: the weather. If you ask entrepreneurs, most of them will say paying their bills, or meeting payroll.
So in honor of Halloween, I interviewed a series of guests on my radio show about what truly scares you in business and what we can do about it?
I talked with Elizabeth Fournierof Cornerstone Funeral (The Green Reaper), Athena Mercouriou, Australian businesswoman and Feng Shui expert, Siamak Taghaddos, CEO of Grasshopper, and Patricia Rossi, America’s Etiquette Expert.
What scared our guests in business?
1. People that don’t share their passion.
2. Not having control all the time.
3. People that don’t build relationships and still want to do business with you.
4. People that are afraid to move forward in business.
What our guests suggested how you can deal with your fears:
1. React with Action. Do something about your fears and stop just thinking.
2. Let go of the idea that you can control everything.
3. Stop listening to the evening news.
