We make assumptions all day long. And those assumptions dictate how we respond to people and situations around us.

Whether it’s assuming the tone in your boss’s email, or not following up because you didn’t get a response the first time, or a client who says yes but then disappears, the assumptions we make about the people around us have major impacts on our business.

But what if instead of assuming that your boss is being curt, or the person you reached out to doesn’t want to talk to you, or the client who disappeared changed their mind, you stopped to notice your assumptions?

We can spend so much energy on these stories we tell ourselves about other people, especially when they’re negative.

And that hurts your business.

Today I’m chatting with a friend and mentor about her new book Go Big Now: 8 Essential Mindset Practices to Overcome Any Obstacle and Reach Your Goals, and how even small shifts in your mindset can have big impacts in your business and your life.
