Sunshine: As a business owner, do you have grit?

Crystal: Welcome to the Love of Business. I’m Crystal.

Sunshine: And I’m Sunshine. Let’s get to it.

Grit. I mean, you got to have grit. But what do you mean? Like do you mean mental toughness or like just like that “rrr” grit?

Crystal: So, we are talking about mental toughness that’s needed to be a successful business owner today. Because having a business is hard.

Sunshine: It definitely is hard.

Crystal: So, you have to have that thick skin a little bit to push you through. And learn ways how to increase that mental toughness.

Sunshine: Well, I’m looking forward to whatever tips you are going to share so that we can be inspired to have more grit.

Crystal: Some ways to increase your level of grit, to increase your mental toughness, would be seen obstacles as challenges. So, reframing things in your mind that seem achievable. Another way would be to have perseverance. You know, we all don’t necessarily get successful right away. It takes some time, we fall down. Next would be resilience. If you get knocked down, no big deal, wipe yourself off and get back to it. The last one would it be to have courage. Be brave enough to try something new. Be brave enough to not quit. Because as long as you don’t quit, you’re winning.

Sunshine: So, be brave.

Crystal: Yes.

Sunshine: What’s your number one takeaway from today’s video? Leave us a comment. And thanks for watching.
