How To Create Breakthroughs In Your Business When You Need Them

When you’ve been trying to crack something in your business for any amount of time, that moment when everything clicks into place, or you discover the way forward, that’s a breakthrough.

What I’ve learned over the years of studying this stuff is that breakthroughs generally come from some combination of one, two, or all three of the following:

• Story
• State
• Strategy

When you change your STORY — the way you see or describe a situation — that can lead to a breakthrough.

Changing your STATE is a super interesting one to me. This can refer to your physical state, or your emotional state.

The science behind changing your physical state is incredibly interesting to me. Check out this TED Talk from Amy Cuddy - https://www.ted.com/talks/amy_cuddy_your_body_language_may_shape_who_you_are?language=en

Lastly, the STRATEGY is the way that we’re approaching a problem or obstacle. By taking a step back and seeing if there is another way, a different strategy, we can create a breakthrough.

This week I was a bit stuck on marketing. But a change in strategy created the potential for 10x the results in 1/10 or less the time…so a massive breakthrough to say the least.​

It was something I created by focusing on my state, my story, AND the strategy.

It takes time and effort and practice, but realizing that you can literally CREATE the breakthroughs you need when you need them is a bit of a superpower.
