Being an entrepreneur = riding an emotional rollercoaster 🎢
More than talent, education or knowledge, the difference between entrepreneurs who succeed and those who give up comes down to one thing: a growth mindset. You’re not born with it; you have to train and develop it.
What's a growth mindset? 👍
Well, it doesn't have anything to do with customer acquisition or sales. It's about being in the right state of mind to overcome self-doubt, learn faster and convert fear into opportunity.
Just as we do with a physical muscle, we can strengthen and develop mental muscles like focus, courage and resilience.
- Master self-doubt and fear: rise to the occasion in high-pressure situations!
- Bounce back quickly from setbacks: stay on track
- Convert failure into opportunity and your competitive edge ;)

Every time you make the hard, correct decision you
become a bit more courageous, and every time you
make the easy, wrong decision you become a bit more
cowardly. If you are CEO, these choices will lead to a
courageous or cowardly company.
