Becoming A Resilient Entrepreneur with James Wedmore The Fed and Fearless Podcast
-
- Entrepreneurship
Running a business is hard. However, there’s only one way to fail in it, and that’s to quit. Today, I’m joined by my coach, James Wedmore, to discuss how to ensure your success through cultivating a resilient entrepreneurial mindset.
About James Wedmore
For the last 15 years, James has leveraged his expertise to help teach Digital CEOs how to build and scale their online businesses through courses and trainings like his signature program, Business By Design, other programs such as Sales Page By Design and Nail Your Niche, as well as many other business-building trainings inside of James’ abundant course library.
Along with being notorious in the online space for his unrivaled online courses and content, James also facilitates Next Level, a strategic, group-coaching experience as well as his high-level Mastermind, The Inner Circle.
When James isn't working, he can be found hiking, flipping homes for Airbnb, or off-roading through the rocky terrain of Sedona. His motto is simple: Work hard, play harder!
Why You Will Succeed If Your Never Give Up Personal development and how much we are willing to work on ourselves is really what allows us to have the business that we desire. Sure, learning and implementing sound business strategies is important. But it really comes down to mindset.
Although entrepreneurship has its risks and challenges, if you are determined enough, you will make it. With this attitude in mind, James explains how to view your success as an inevitability. The problem is that many people give up too soon. You need to stick with it. With the right coaching, community, and support, your success will only arrive that much sooner.
Doing Less to Earn More
It may seem counterintuitive, but as a business owner, the less you do, the more you’ll make. James explains why the role that you fill determines the results that you receive. This is because creating a business means creating many different roles. Filling all these roles yourself is only going to keep you extremely busy without leading to much actually getting done. So instead of spending the majority of your time in the roles that don’t actually earn the money, James wants us to determine what activities actually produce the most result and focus on those.
Seeing Yourself as the Key to Your Business’ Success
We also talk about the difference between changing your business approach versus actual failure. Often, things won’t go the way you want. In fact, that’s an inevitable part of business. There will be setbacks. James reinforces the idea that you should never quit. Instead, when things go badly, look for opportunities to try a different approach.
Understand that your most valuable asset is you. Your personal brand is what differentiates your business and will earn you a loyal following. If it comes time for you to pivot, the power of your own identity which you imbue into your business will mean that there’s a group of people who will follow you wherever you go.
