Habits of Influence
Building a solid, sustainable business can be stressful and scary. The amount of competition and information overload causes young entrepreneurs a lot of anguish and confusion. Figuring out a way to create a movement with your product or service, and to build a position of influence, may sometimes seem like an unattainable dream, but is it really that tough to break through the challenges, or are we made to think that's the case by already established coaches, or influencers?
On the podcast we'll be looking at all sides of building influence - the good, the bad, and the ugly, helping entrepreneurs understand the ins and outs of the entrepreneurial environment, and indirectly teaching on how to become the voice others wish to follow.
Habits of Influence
Can failure in business become a hidden blessing? - with Boni Wagner-Stafford
When we start our business, failure is one of the most feared situations anyone can imagine.
The thought of having to admit you have failed to: family, friends, and people who kind-heartedly warned you of the dangers of entrepreneurship, can seem like a punishment no one wants to go through.
This can take a toll on a person mentally, physically, and financially, and cause us to ask "Why me? Why is my business failing?", draining us from the inside out, and making us feel like the whole world is simply crashing down, with no way out.
The truth is, despite the motivational quotes, and success stories, any business can fail at any time in our lives, and it's not a given that we will succeed with even the most promising venture there is.
So, how do we overcome failure in business? And how do we deal with the feelings that come right after - the shame, the inadequacy, and the pain?
And how do we turn our failure into success by taking what we've learned and building something even better, stronger, and more powerful in our next business venture?
Join Ian this week, as he talks to the amazing Boni Wagner-Stafford about her journey from living on a boat in Mexico, losing everything in a failed business venture, and going on to co-founding a very successful publishing company - Ingenium Books that changes the lives of many authors every year and causing her to live the life of fulfillment, freedom, and her version of success.
