One of the things I enjoy the most is that I have the opportunity to have conversations with entrepreneurs from all over the world.
I learn a lot from these conversations.
These conversations help me understand the challenges and issues that they are going through and it gives me ideas for the content that I can create to help them solve the problems they are facing.
A while ago, I noticed that there was always one question that stood out.
The question had to do with how to make better decisions.
I have to be honest, when I started receiving these questions, I was not sure how to answer them.
At first glance, it seemed almost a philosophical question
Since I specialize in online marketing I didn’t expect people asking me about how to make better decisions.
However, the questions kept coming.
So I started talking more about the marketing decisions that people make every day, the problems that occur when they do not make decisions, and even worse the problems that arise when they make the wrong decisions.
After talking about this topic for a few months, I discovered that behind this question lies a bigger problem.
Most people still have an employee mindset instead of an entrepreneur mindset
A few days ago I decided to share with entrepreneurs who are part of my community the lessons I have learned, that have helped me change my way of thinking and have had a big impact on the way I make decisions.
1.Asking the right questions
I have noticed that when we are unsure of what should be the next step or which direction we should go, it is because we are not asking ourselves the right question.
For example
Instead of asking the question: What is the probability that this will work?
Which is probably a very difficult question to answer.
Why not ask a question like the following:
Will this help me get closer to my goal?
Asking better questions is the best exercise you can do in your business, not only because it will help you make better decisions, but also because it allows you to learn and see things from a new perspective every time.
2.Learn to trust yourself
If you are reading this, it is because you have a dream. The dream of making your business grow or the dream of starting your own business. Neither of these two dreams will be possible if you do not have confidence in yourself.
Think about it, for a business to be successful it is necessary to make more good decisions than bad ones.
If this is true, for your business to be successful, you need to learn to make those decisions.
If you want to learn to make better decisions, your business does not need your husband or wife to make the decisions for you, your business needs you.
Each time you make a decision you will learn and gain experience.
That is the only way to develop confidence in yourself.

3.Understand the cost of not moving forward
Usually, people do not realize that not making decisions is also a decision.
When you postpone the decision to promote your business online for a few months or years. In your mind, this might not seem serious since the business still survives and generates profits.
But in reality, it is pretty serious.
Because every day you lose customers, you lose sales and you lose the opportunity to learn about how to promote your business online.
Worst of all, every day that passes is a day you do not face your fears.
Meanwhile, your competition is learning and taking the lead.
This type of advantage is not something that you can recuperate from once you decide that it’s time to jump into the water.
That’s the kind of advantage that makes a huge difference.
Conclusion
All decisions involve risk and uncertainty.
Learning 3 Mindset Shifts to go from employee to entrepreneur is what will allow you to make better decisions.
Everything you are looking for is on the other side of fear.
This becomes evident when you ask the right questions, when you learn to trust yourself and when you understand that the most important thing is always to keep moving forward.
When you give up on your dreams, you are the only person who will live a life of regret. It
Are you willing to shift your mindset from employee to entrepreneur?
