failure to delegate is a failure to trust.<\/strong><\/p>\n by sandi leyva<\/i> if you feel you should be doing better than you are in business, you may have a belief pattern that is unconsciously holding you back. the first step is to bring it to the surface. only then can it be addressed, released, and replaced with the belief that will lead you to increased success.<\/p>\n more: <\/b>three questions for the new year<\/a> | five lessons my clients taught me<\/a> | how to fire a client<\/a> | five tips for virtual team member happiness<\/a> | boost your cross-selling in two easy steps<\/a> | 11 kinds of wealth<\/a> here are the five most common thinking patterns or beliefs that will keep your accounting business from growing. 1. deserveability<\/strong><\/p>\n if you flinch when i ask you if you \u201cdeserve\u201d to be wealthy and successful, then you may have a \u201cdeserveability\u201d issue to work on. if you can relate to the following thoughts, you fall into this belief pattern:<\/p>\n sometimes you can ask yourself what\u2019s behind this belief; then you can decide whether the \u201ccurrent you\u201d deserves more. why\u00a0don\u2019t<\/strong>\u00a0you deserve a successful business? is a good place to start.<\/p>\n 2. comparing<\/strong><\/p>\n if you spend any time of your day thinking about your competition or people who might compete with you, then you might have an unhealthy thinking pattern. here\u2019s when you\u2019re in real trouble:<\/p>\n in an accounting practice, it\u2019s highly unlikely that you must spend much time worrying about your competition. your uniqueness is your firm culture or if you\u2019re solo, your own personality is enough of a difference to set you apart. you don\u2019t need to develop any more uniqueness than that, contrary to many of our profession\u2019s consultants.<\/p>\n 3. fear of success<\/strong><\/p>\n a huge percentage of entrepreneurs hold this belief, which may be subconscious or fully in their awareness. here are some problems we\u2019ve talked ourselves into that are just wrong:<\/p>\n if you are afraid of success, you will end up playing much smaller than you really are. although this mostly hurts only yourself, you also cheat the world out of your brilliance by not helping more people.<\/p>\n 4. i have to do it myself<\/strong><\/p>\n this thinking pattern is one of the more ironic ones for the accounting profession. someone who will not delegate lacks trust in other people. when clients hire us, they have to turn over their very private, very sensitive financial information. this is scary for some people!<\/p>\n being able to build trust in others but not have it ourselves is being a bit hypocritical. we need to know \u2013 and feel \u2013 what our clients go through when they sign on with us. it just makes us better people, and maybe better accountants too.<\/p>\n with this thinking pattern, you have sentenced yourself to no more than five figures a year in revenue. take the first step away from it by learning how to tolerate vulnerability and trust others.<\/p>\n 5. worthiness<\/strong><\/p>\n worthiness is somewhat similar to deserveability. people who have this belief pattern:<\/p>\n lifelong learning, gaining experience, determination and persistence will help this one gain steady progress. once a person has experienced a series of successes, they can get the momentum they need to feel worthy of getting the life they want.<\/p>\n thinking small or large<\/strong><\/p>\n did you resonate with any of the thinking patterns above? you\u2019re certainly not alone if you did. choose the one that got your head nodding the most, and bring it to your awareness more and more. only then can you take steps to start playing bigger.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
