Most of us get stuck in our businesses not because we lack information or ideas… but because we’re looking at the problem the same way every single time. We see two options, both feel scary, and so we sit at the fork in the road and go nowhere. But what if the answer to your biggest business problem isn’t either of the options you’ve been staring at? What if there’s a third one you haven’t seen yet?
How to See Your Business Problems Differently… Starting with Your Own Brain
Our brains are wired to keep us safe. That means defaulting to black and white thinking… either I go full time or I stay stuck, either I raise my prices or I lose every client, either I post every day or I’m a failure. None of that is actually true. But fear makes it feel like it is. The first step to seeing your business problems differently is recognizing that your brain is offering you a very limited menu… and asking whether there might be something else on the table.
What Happens When You Start Asking Better Questions
Recently I had a conversation with a podcast listener who felt completely stuck between two scary options in her business. She couldn’t see a way forward because she was locked into thinking there were only two paths. When I started asking questions… what if you didn’t have to quit, what if there was a way to have some stability and still grow, what if the answer looks nothing like what you’re picturing… everything started to open up. She hadn’t thought of a third option because nobody had asked her to look for one.
How to See Your Business Problems Differently with Help from Someone Else
Sometimes you’re just too close to it. You’re emotional, you’re scared, and you’ve been staring at the same two walls for so long you’ve forgotten there’s a door. That’s when a coach, a biz bestie, or even just someone who has gone before you can completely change how you see things. Getting a perspective from someone outside your situation isn’t a weakness. It’s often the fastest way through.
What God Might Already Have Waiting in the Wings
If you’ve been praying for clarity between two options, consider asking a different question altogether. Not God, which one should I choose… but God, is there a path I haven’t seen yet? Sometimes the answer we’ve been waiting for isn’t behind door one or door two. Sometimes there’s a door three that’s been there the whole time, and we just needed someone to point it out.
