The cure for comparisonitis. When I asked in Dece The cure for comparisonitis. When I asked in December what you believed was stopping you from achieving things like calling in high-paying clients consistently, creating a digital product to build your email list, and sharing your expertise on industry podcasts, you told me that...👇🏿 "You're scared to be wrong." "Get overwhelmed and confused, so decide to try something else." "Tell yourself you can't do it." "Feel like you need to be great at everything." "Can't stay motivated." FOMO, shiny object syndrome and lack of focus often get the blame for the mindset blocks you shared. And I do think they play a big part. However, I feel they aren't the full story. Comparisonitis is the real reason we struggle to remain accountable, don't believe success is possible for us, and resist the discomfort of taking in perfect action. I know this to be true because I found myself in the worst case of comparisonitis I've ever experienced last year. I was paralysed by self-doubt. I didn't trust that I knew what was best for my business. I convinced myself that there had to be a better, more efficient and profitable way. ​ It wasn't until I joined a mastermind where I was surrounded by incredible and talented womxn who were struggling with the same mindset blocks as me that I realised what was happening. We're all scrolling each other's Instagram feeds, believing that the other has it all figured out and discovered the 'secret' to business - this just isn't true! Since having a space to learn from other womxn's wins and failures, understand the decisions behind their strategies, and see the endless possibilities and opportunities that are available, I've been able to stop comparing myself to others. And now, I can focus solely on myself, my business, and my vision. This new confidence and clarity, accountability and self-trust have allowed me to hire an Online Business Manager, launch The Rachel Kurzyp Show, sell The Copy Advantage, and build the Freedom to Scale mastermind. I want this for you too. That's why I created my mastermind Freedom to Scale. 👉🏽 DM me if you'd like to learn more about this safe, accessible + inclusive space. ​
5 healthy habits I'm keeping in 2021.⁠ ⁠ OK so 5 healthy habits I'm keeping in 2021.⁠ ⁠ OK so straight up I want to say that I formed many unhealthy habits last year in lockdown.⁠ ⁠ *hides gin bottle at the back of the cupboard*⁠ ⁠ BUT surprisingly, I formed many great habits too that I've found myself carrying over into the new year.⁠ ⁠ I hope they inspire you to look for new ways to find more joy, balance, and connection in your life this year.⁠ ⁠ 📺 Watching game shows at 5 pm⁠ ⁠ Switching out of work mode has been hard. So I started a hard laptop closed rule at 5 pm. It turns out that's when the game shows are on! Now I spend an hour every night proving to my bae that I know more useless facts than him. ⁠ ⁠ 💸 Supporting local businesses⁠ ⁠ From wine to artwork to dog collars, I'm buying from Australian businesses first and only purchasing products overseas if I can't source what I need here. The level of service I've received from these businesses has reminded me of the powerful role small business has in our society. ⁠ ⁠ ✍🏼 Daily journaling and breathing practice⁠ ⁠ Every couple of hours I stop, stretch, and take a few deep breaths to ground myself (it helps reduce the overwhelms 😬). And over lunch, I now ask myself three questions: What do I need today? What does my business need from me today? What does my community need from me today?⁠ ⁠ 👭 Weekly check-ins with my coach @elliehswift⁠ ⁠ These scheduled convos have helped me address mindset blocks fast and remain focused on the actions that will move my biz forward. I'm practising 'done over perfect' more than ever before and trying to bring more ease into my work.⁠ ⁠ 🚶🏼‍♀️ Evening strolls around my neighbourhood⁠ ⁠ Instead of staring at my phone and adding items to my to-do list, I process the feelings that have come up for me during the day and count off all the things I'm grateful for. E.g. getting to pat a dog in the park.⁠ ⁠ What healthy 2020 habits are you keeping?⁠ ⁠ Let me know in the comments below 👇🏿
