Understanding Common Forms of Resistance
So, there are very common areas of resistance entrepreneurs face, and there are three common ways to overcome them.
1. Losing Momentum
The first and most common obstacle overages entrepreneurs face is losing momentum. If you’ve started an overages business, you’ve already taken a big step. It’s hard to get started, and you should be proud of yourself. Remember, the people you’re helping are at the lowest points of their lives. You’ll help people in one of the worst moments of their lives get back on their feet and be paid handsomely for it. But everything that’s worth doing is a challenge.
You have lots of new things to learn, and sometimes it can be a challenge. Those skills take time to learn. Learning how to research lists, getting the hang of skip tracing, making phone calls, and reaching out to people—all these tasks are challenging and require practice. Sometimes, it can feel like you’re not making progress, and you may feel like you don’t want to show up. It happens to a lot of my students.
They start to ask themselves:
- What am I doing?
- Why am I doing this?
- Do I even want to do this?
- Why am I still showing up?
It’s problem after problem and frustration after frustration. When this happens, it’s important to give yourself credit for what you've accomplished. It’s important to stick to a routine and simply keep at it. It’s important to remember most people never take the initiative to start a business. Most people never try to better their lives. Most people don’t have the nerve to learn new skills or do things that can be scary, like making phone calls. But you have… And if you stay consistent, you will succeed.
2. Revisiting Your Why
There’s another way to overcome this resistance. That’s revisiting your why. When you run into obstacles and start to feel frustrated, you need to remember your ‘why.' The writer Simon Sinek has a great book on this called “Start With Why,” which explores this concept deeply. Your why is your driving force, your mission. It’s what pulls you out of bed each morning, even when the last thing you want to do is think about business.
Your why in tax overages might be earning fantastic money while helping people who really need it. It might be the opportunity never to have to work for anyone ever again. It could be the potential to build generational wealth. It might be the chance to retire and provide for your family. When your mission is clear, every setback becomes a setup for a comeback. Write down your why. Make it your mission statement. Place it somewhere you can see it every day. Whether it's on your office wall, a post-it on your computer, or the background on your phone—let it be a constant reminder that the peaks and valleys are just part of the journey.
And remember, your why should resonate with your deeper values. It’s not just about profits; it’s about the impact you can make. Maybe it's helping people going through a bad moment, or just the personal satisfaction of mastering a challenging market. Keep this in mind, and it will propel you through tough times with a clearer sense of purpose.
3. Accountability
The last and best way to overcome resistance is accountability. First up, let's talk about accountability. This isn't just a buzzword; it’s a fundamental lifeline for entrepreneurs. Imagine you’re lifting weights at the gym. You push harder when someone is watching or counting on you, right? It’s exactly the same in business. Having a business mentor or a coach can propel you to do that one extra rep, to make that extra call, to push a little harder when you think you can’t go any further.
Most importantly, a mentor can help you navigate the learning curve, teach you how to run the ins and outs of the business, and support you when you’re in a rut. A coach has already navigated the ups and downs and can help you avoid common pitfalls and accelerate your learning curve..
Conclusion
In conclusion, resistance is a part of the journey, but it doesn’t have to define your path. By understanding common obstacles, revisiting your why, and maintaining accountability, you can transform resistance into resilience and pave your way to success in the tax overages business. Keep these strategies in mind, and you’ll not only overcome challenges but also thrive in your entrepreneurial journey. Stay motivated, stay focused, and remember—you have the power to make a significant impact while achieving your financial goals.
