Flip your Thinking for Mental Resilience in Business
Monday, 13th January 2025Flip your Thinking for Mental Resilience in Business
Mental resilience is our ability to thrive through adversity and challenges and perform well under stress, irrespective of the prevailing circumstances.
Practising mental resilience can be one of the most valuable business assets and is one of the most sought-after personal attributes of a leader.
So, what can you do to boost your mental resilience?
Being mindful of our ‘crooked’ thinking?
Crooked thinking is an irrational, exaggerated, or unhelpful thought or way of thinking. As business owners, it’s easy to get caught up in crooked thinking when we are faced with so many challenges as we grow. It’s critical to recognise when we fall into this trap so we can learn to replace these unhelpful thinking patterns with positive affirmations and facts in the HERE and NOW that will ground us.
Using the Flip the Thinking Tool is not just for the hard times. It’s also critical to managing daily challenges. As your mental resilience increases, you will gain confidence in your ability to deal with whatever challenge you face in your business.
What’s getting in your way?
Having a clear idea of what you need to change is the first step to building mental resilience.
Think about what’s holding you back from achieving the business growth you want and deserve.
What’s draining all the energy out of you? (this may not necessarily be business related).
What’s causing you to get lost in the ‘weeds’ of your business?
All these things can get in the way of achieving success and growth in our business, so it’s important you recognise what they are and what you’re going to do to change them.
Power through setbacks
The Flip the Thinking is a great tool to use when you are tested because let’s face it – you will be! Developing resilience in the face of setbacks will help you get right back up – smarter, wiser and more experienced than before.
Mental toughness is built through repetition and consistency
Mental toughness is like any other muscle. It builds, strengthens, and improves over time and with repetition. Getting into a ‘habit’ of doing daily and weekly rituals will prove beneficial over time – and will get easier over time, too.
As you practice Flip the Thinking, your mental strength will increase, and you will feel more confident in your decisions. You will gain clarity over what’s important to you (and what’s holding you back), and you will ensure that your priorities are aligned with what will help you grow.
