Mindset - a habitual or characteristic
mental attitude that determines how you will interpret and respond to
situations
Everyone has a
mindset. Our mindset is a significant factor in how far we reach in life. Do
you have a got get it attitude or do you like to go with the flow? Do you like
to go it alone or do you think teamwork gets you farther? Well here are a few
mentalities I have seen in my practice.
- Entitlement – the belief that success should just happen because of who you are rather than as the result of any effort or hard work that you put towards your endeavors. Common among teenagers, the entitlement mentality is often a sign of immaturity.
- Loner – the belief that you can succeed on your own with no assistance from others. You know, the self-made man. He takes credit for all his successes, but his failures are always someone else’s fault. He may be successful, but his employees will leave at the drop of a hat once something better comes along
- Entrepreneur – the belief that you would rather work for yourself than someone else. He will work for someone else for a while, but is always striving to break free. He understands perseverance and determination. He is also not afraid to ask for help when necessary. He is not interested in a handout, just a hand up from time to time.
- Employee – the belief that you would rather work for someone else than for yourself. He is content to work 9-5 and have benefits. He may strive to move up in the company, as long as he is able to maintain a work/life balance. He may even be willing to be loyal to the company, provided he is compensated appropriately.
Perhaps one of these mentalities applies to you. Are you
happy with your current mindset? If not, why not? Do you believe that your
mindset can change? It can. But it depends on you and how much you want to
change. If you’re interested in changing your mindset, contact me. I can be

Don’t let your mindset hold you back.
