Sometimes, we avoid selling because we think we’re imposing.
And, to be fair, there are a lot of big companies out there doing just that: creating demand to sell things that aren’t really needed, wanted, or useful.
But many people create offers that genuinely help people.
Remember the last time that happened for you?
It could be big or small.
Maybe you found sunglasses that were just perfect.
Maybe you were finally able to buy your own home.
Maybe you found some utterly delightful stationery.
(What do you mean, you’re not a stationery fanatic? Like there’s any other way of being! )
Now, imagine your client or customer being just as delighted to buy from you.
Put yourself in their shoes. Vividly imagine it.
Doesn’t it feel great?
Why and How to Use These Prompts
Getting into a better place in thinking about money is a vital first step to facing our numbers and then doing something to better them - all the stuff I'm here to help you with.
Use these prompts to gently explore your feelings about money at your own pace. Remember, the point is to dig beneath the surface for yourself.
Brew up a cuppa, put on some chill music, light a candle or incense, get a notebook and pen, and give it a go. Consider setting a timer for just 15 minutes and write whatever comes into your head.
For some prompts, you might prefer to meditate on them instead. Or ponder them whilst doing the washing up or walking the dog. Or you might want to talk them through with a trusted friend. Do whatever works for you to help you get to a better money mindset.
