How To Turn Your Procrastination and Overwhelm To Income-Producing, Profit-Making Productivity, No Matter Where You Are Right Now

Hi, and thanks for stopping by.

Firstly, let me ask you a few questions, if that’s ok, to help you identify if you’ve come to the right place.

Let’s start:

  1. Do you feel that you are not as successful as you thought you should be by now?
  2. Do you find yourself avoiding or procrastinating on tasks that are considered important for your business?
  3. Do you feel overwhelmed and find you’re not completing or finishing tasks or projects?
  4. Do you hold yourself back from going for the clients or business that you would really love to have because you feel you don’t have enough credibility or desirability?
  5. Do you find yourself being indecisive because you’re afraid you might make the wrong decisions?

It’s not uncommon to answer ‘yes’ to one or even all of these questions.

There are a lot of professional services entrepreneurs who have set their goals, planned their strategies, visualised their dreams, but up to now are still struggling to have the business they want, justify the fees they want to charge and have the time to have the lifestyle they want.

Is this you as well?

Setting goals, whether just in your head or in writing, and not being able to achieve them time after time can make you feel lacking in self-confidence and ability.  It’s easy for those feelings to snowball if you don’t arrest their power, and it then becomes harder to be the kind of entrepreneur you visualise yourself to be.

So What Do Most Entrepreneurs Do To Turn Things Around?

From my experience, most entrepreneurs tend to lean towards marketing, sales and business building strategies to get to where they want to go.  

Most of the time, they get attracted to learning how to get more clients, how to earn more money with reduced working hours, how to leverage time and knowledge, how to create passive income, etc.

The attraction to these topics are very understandable and what’s more, we all know that marketing, sales and business building are absolutely essential if we are to succeed in business.

You probably already know a lot about some of these topics.  If so, perfect!  That’s half the battle.

But have you also noticed the times when even after you’ve spent considerable amounts of money on your new learning, you either didn’t use it at all, or you started working on it but your motivation to finish it disappeared very quickly?  Or when it didn’t seem like producing the results you want quickly enough you lost interest in it altogether and you went to search for something new again?

Learning doesn’t automatically translate in doing and implementing effectively.  You probably noticed that already.

But more importantly for you, not only as an entrepreneur but as a unique individual,  it takes more than having a step-by-step instruction in front of you.  It’s about understanding how to make those business strategies work with who you are and your business’s particular circumstances.

So what does this all mean?  If you’ve been identifying with what we’ve talked about so far, more often than not you are exhibiting symptoms of Covered-Up Potential.

What is Covered-Up Potential?

It is when you are not aware of your personal drivers and barriers, and what you’re really capable of.  And when you’re not aware of it, you can’t consciously develop and use it effectively and maximally.

It also means not seeing the benefits and advantages of what you perceive as your “weaknesses”.  For example, if you’re an introvert and you see that as a weakness, you may tend cover it up because you think extroverts have a better chance of being successful, getting more clients or developing business relationships.  That has the effect of making you feel you’re not good enough and gives rise to some of your fears.  It also blinds you to the strengths, abilities and attraction you have because of your introversion.

So when your true potential is covered-up and unexpressed, you procrastinate because you’re not fully aware of your personal drivers and barriers, and you feel overwhelmed because you’re not seeing all the options available to you.

Covered-up potential exists at various stages: whether you are a start up or have been in business for a while; whether you are worried of failing in your new business or you are concerned that you’re not good enough for the higher level of clients or fees that you want.

Here Are Common Symptoms of Covered-Up Potential

You may recognise one or more of these common symptoms:

  • You have fears that what you really love to do can’t work and can’t make money so you stop thinking of ways to make it happen;
  • You procrastinate in doing the tasks that are considered important in your business and you put yourself down a lot for not having enough discipline;
  • You feel frustrated or are concerned that by now you are not at a certain level of business or financial success;
  • Your past failures occupy your mind and make you hold back from taking action or making decisions;
  • You think too much before you act or speak that you feel you are not able to take advantage of opportunities;
  • You’re afraid to promote yourself, increase your fees or get higher quality clients even though you’ve been preparing for these for a while now because you still doubt your credibility or desirability;
  • You hold off asking for help, thinking “I should know this”, and feel afraid that your credibility or ability will be judged;

Which of these symptoms did you identify with?

If you’ve identified with more than one, don’t feel bad about yourself.  Most people don’t know that they have covered-up potential.  They’re not even aware of where and how to look for it.

But how much time and money have you already spent for your business growth and development without a return on your investment?  And how confident are you that the time and money you will spend in the future would give you the results you want?

Many businesses failed or are headed for failure because the business owners only look to the outside world for answers and didn’t take the time to develop themselves in a personal and entrepreneurial sense.

It takes your vision and inspiration to drive your business to the success you want.  The marketing, sales and business building strategies that you learn, they are your tools, not your ‘rescuers’.  You have to drive them, not them drive you.  And maximising your potential, performance and productivity as an entrepreneur is a major key to being in the driver’s seat to success.

So if you think that there’s something here for you and that you’re ready to also look inwards, then you’re in the right place, and now is your time.
