When you started your business, you definitely faced some challenges.

No shame in that – there’s not an entrepreneur on earth that hasn’t struggled in one way or another when they’re getting their great idea off the ground.

But if the same complications that held you back in the beginning are preventing your from scaling your business now, it’s time to make some changes!

My friend and colleague, Evakarin Wallin, is the Queen of Transformation, and she specializes in helping business owners release what’s holding them back and rewire their minds so they can easily step up their game and grow their business.

She knows that in order to move past your obstacles, you have to start by looking at the root cause. Ask yourself:

• What issues have you typically faced in the past?
  
  
• What’s causing you to doubt yourself or your abilities?
  
  
• What boosts your confidence and makes you feel great?

Evakarin believes that introspection is incredibly important when you’re ready to grow your business. You have to know where you’re struggling and be aware of your feelings before you can take the steps to overcome it – and that starts with listening to your body.

Pay attention to your body’s message. When you feel uneasy or uncomfortable, your body is telling you that something isn’t right.

Listen to it!!

Figure out where those feelings are coming from. Once you’ve identified the source, you can work on changing your thought patterns, and overcoming the obstacles that have consistently held you back.

“Notice what is going on in your body. Sometimes you can see it right away and sometimes it will take a while. Don’t suppress the feeling, but don’t drown in it and believe it, either. It’s just a message.”

In fact, Evakarin says we should actually be grateful to our uncomfortable feelings because they give us a clear direction of what we actually want to do.

See there? You knew what you wanted all along! You just have to take the time to listen to what your body and feelings are really trying to tell you!
