Are You Unhappy and Wish for Things to Change?

Not happy in your current situation? Are you stuck in a rut, just plodding along, hoping for the economy to change or for someone to make things better for you?...

Are you laying blame on other things or people for your situation? Is it the landlords fault, is it your customers fault, is it the governments fault?

There are certain things we can't control, it will either hail or shine tomorrow, there is nothing we can do to change that. What you CAN control and can change, is how you RESPOND to it, how you think about it, how you feel about it, and what ACTION you take as a result.

For things to change, first you must change your internal dialogue, how you think about the situation you are having challenge with, and what you literally say to yourself about it.

Language and the words you choose are extremely powerful. The pen is mightier than the sword! People can be moved deeply with words, can be influenced to take action, can be motivated or broken down. So be careful what you say to yourself. Don't say "it can't be done" say " if there was a way, how CAN it be done?" Don't say "things are really tough, no one is spending money" say "let's see what we can do to stimulate more sales, entice people to book in for a treatment or motivate them to buy the product"

I learned from Tony Robbins to soften negative words I say to myself, and power up positive words I say to myself. For example instead of saying " I feel awful" I say "I feel a little unwell" or " I am not fussed with that" instead of saying " I hate that!" the words you use program the way you think and feel about it. You do have a choice every time you choose your words. Say, "that is just awesome!!" instead of saying "that is nice", power up your positive words, it puts you in a totally different mindset!

For things to change you need to break your negative state, snap out of it as they say, start looking for solutions, AND TAKE IMMEDIATE ACTION!

As Anthony Robbins said: The path to success is to take MASSIVE, DETERMINED ACTION.

From Anti-Ageing to Age Management: A Smarter Strategy for Beauty Clinics

For years, anti-ageing sat at the centre of beauty marketing. It was familiar. It was easy. It promised something clients thought they wanted. But lately, that word has started to feel out of sync with how clients actually speak, and how people actually think about their skin. I recently read an industry article questioning the relevance of anti-ageing language, and it stopped me in my tracks. Not because it was radical, but because it mirrored conversations I’ve been having with therapists, clinic owners, and clients for a long time. The industry has moved forward and as a clinic owner, this matters more than you might realise. Anti-Ageing No Longer Reflects What You Truly Do The term anti-ageing suggests that ageing is something to fight, fix, or erase. Yet most clients are not asking to look twenty again. They want confidence when they look in the mirror. They want to age well, and feel good about themselves. This is where the disconnect happens. When language feels unrealistic, cli...

HOW TO OVERCOME YOUR FEAR OF SELLING

Selling is a skill and a mindset, it can be learned even if it does not come naturally. One of the biggest things that can hold you back from selling more products is, fear of selling. For some, talking to people and making suggestions comes easily, for others that are more introverted, it can be a whole new learning curve. Most beauty practitioners are caring, gentle people and by nature can be an introvert. So to stand out, and put yourself out there can be uncomfortable to downright painful. What's at the core of these uncomfortable, painful feelings is our fear.   FACING OUR FEARS know your fears There are many difficult and frightening times when we have to face our fears. And, the surprising truth is, we all come face to face with our fears eventually. Here are just some examples of what people fear the most: learning a new skill death loneliness being in an unfamiliar place a new job becoming a parent public speaking getting up on stage to perform...
