Started following and learning from Chris, Blair Enns, and David Baker. Charged my first multiple thousand dollar project after reading both Bllair and Davids books, then tens of thousands on the next project, then multiples of tens of thousands on the next... I never thought I could charge so much, my beliefs in my own value was my limiting factor.

@@roody_io for me it was a mindset shift. Listen to Blair and David, and reading their books essentially helped me make that shift. I'd say that the largest part was my own perception and belief had to change before I could start changing my actions around that

My professor made us all watch this video for our design class and pretty much told us, you can be the best designer in the room and it will mean NOTHING if your mindset is not geared towards success...thank you for spreading the message on this!

When i started designing clothes 2 years ago, people told me to be affordable, otherwise not many people will buy it. I didn't listen. I started at £250 and i had some customers who told me to raise my prices. Customers travel for 2hours to come to me. Now my prices starts from £700.

Hey Sandro, what books do you recommend for a beginner?

I went up on my price several times because of what I learned from you. Same kind of curiosity , how high can I go. First raises didn’t affect my clients number, showing I wasn’t charging enough. I learned about that time that in my one man crew the worker was getting paid well but the business owner , advertiser, accountant, driver/estimator was getting paid NONE. I finally got to the point where my customers often tell me that my job bids are higher than others . So now(!) I can proudly tell them back that “I’m worth it”. Not to my surprise people reply “that’s what I heard” to that . And then we make the deal. People wanna be sure before they sign up.. and willing to pay extra for that. That’s how I feel about it now. I used to feel sorry for charging “too much”.

perfectionism is the attachment to an old identity stuck in the belief of "I'm not good-enough." True creative freedom happens when you shift your operating system perfect ---> a masterpiece and a work in progress. This way you climb the first and second mountains of 'success' simultaneously.

Chris, I am not even in your industry and yet the more I listen to you the less it is about the industry. You speak truth and I appreciate you sharing.

Maybe because it's hard, and sometimes it's useless because you may not understand or fathom the circumstances this personay be in. For me I may say and share what is standing between me and success because I'm not in a country that give you the opportunity to be successful, like the success we see online, or my dreams, I may be a successful person but there is a limit to my success, and it's geographic limit. Sorry if my words are not 100% detailed but this is a bit of my story.

Chris, thank you for saying that your greatest advantage is living in the United States. No one appreciates the privileges and opportunities of this country like immigrants do. I hope people, especially young people, come to realize how they're being manipulated by all forms of media to think negatively about themselves and the nation. The U.S. is not without faults but among all of the nations of the world, it is unique in its diversity and level of opportunity. Thank you.

When entering the UPS Small Biz challenge, I had to answer the question: What makes you and your business unstoppable? Part of my answer was "Success is inevitable if you refuse to give up". I'm trying to change my situation. It's a slow but deliberate process. I think I'm ready to start getting clients. I feel the procrastination bug creeping up on me. I think it would be helpful to come up with a step by step process I can follow. I have to stay active.

a "mindset problem"... that's a new phrase I think through a lot now... Thanks.

I’m not there. But I believe what you say is true. I have no idea what I am capable of. And I’ll never find out if I don’t try. And it can be scary, but just because there is a fear or phobia doesn’t mean I can’t try it out. Good notes 1. You can do it but I can’t 2. We can do it tmmr 3.

For me it was after working for a fashion designer that charges prices I could never imagine charging myself, for quality lower than what I know I can make. He grew so much in 1 year of me working for him. Then I started to feel more confident (& justified) in charging more for my own clothes

Love the mindsets and stories! Just like what Henry Ford said: "Whether you think you can or think you can't, you are right." Thank you, Chris, for sharing!

We need to change from having a scarcity mindset to having an abundance mindset. 🙏🏾 Have a curious and open mind.

Solid. Thank you Chris for continuing to share truth and remind us what it takes to push past our fear and step into our future.

Creating a change in belief is no small task because the problem habits or mindset is often invisible to us.

Keep preaching it, Chris. Here since the 2016 podcasting days; now on the "giving away value for 5 years" plan.

Do you know the beauty of listening to you gives me the same vibe as i get when I pray to God. It may sound spiritual to others but yes with your honesty and clarity, chris you have always been loyal towards truth.

I’m completely open, I’ve put a lot of time into dissolving my ego. I don’t need perfectionism, I don’t have self doubt, I’ve been going at this for 20 years and still haven’t seen the success I know I deserve, and I’ll go another 20 if that’s what it takes ❤

Much love to ya, Chris. Keep up the ever-great work.

Chis love your content as always. I can concur I grew up in a small rural town in Montana to now run my own successful agency and have had a long career that I have enjoyed. I feel that your mindset and your willingness to learn from adversity can shape you into a very successful person. Both in business and personally, it is all about what you take away and what you let push you down. In my signature line I have used "Keep Moving Forward" for now 15 years, something I took away from Walt Disney.

OMG Chris. I've deal with fixed mindset for a looong time (perfectionism mode) and a couple more of years acknowledging it but being unable to change. It was one of the things to work this year and you have just unlocked my fixed mindset with this video. It just clicked in my mind Still have a long work to do, but the click of the closed padlock it's done Thank you so much

However, I must admit that the proper mindset IS critical. When I was a wee lad, my maternal Grandmother told me, "If you think you can or you think you can't, you're RIGHT!". , the Self-Talk Solution, by Dr. Shad Helmstetter was a game changer for me.
