When you tell yourself things like "The future of my business depends on this," you add so much pressure to whatever you're working on in that moment.
I mean, I feel stressed just typing it!
I bet you can sense the heaviness behind it, too.
Because this way of thinking is the opposite of fun.
It’s a major momentum stopper that instantly cuts you off from creative solutions.
Because who wants to work when the pressure is THAT intense?
Not me!
I’ve been there many times, and all this line of thinking does is keep me clamped up, paralyzed in fear, and totally exhausted before I even get started.
Here’s the truth:
You do your best work when you’re relaxed.
When your radiant personality shines.
When you are open, unattached, and receptive.
And when you feel calm enough to think at a high level.
Get to this place, and you will create far more than you ever could under pressure.
Stay on the lookout for those sneaky, pressure-filled thoughts (you’ll know ‘em when you feel them), and send them on their merry way as swiftly as you can.
Your brain — and your business — will be so grateful.
