A lot of new entrepreneurs suffer with imposter syndrome: the thought that they don’t ‘deserve’ to be business owners. How can we stop thinking that way? What can we do to push those thoughts aside and start doing the work? On this episode, I share how you can change the way you think about yourself and your business.

In business, all that matters is that you have a good idea and you execute that idea well. Stop thinking that YOU have to be ‘worthy’ to be successful.  –Dana Malstaff

3 Things We Learned From This Episode

• Imposter syndrome is a trap. Stop thinking you’re unworthy of having a seat at the table and just start doing the work.
• Don’t be discouraged if you’re not an immediate success story. All successful businesses have their fair share of problems.
• To operate your business, you need to have plans and strategies.

Stop telling yourself you’re not meant to be an entrepreneur. As long as you have a plan in place and great ideas, you’re on the right track. Start doing the work and stop caring what other people think. And remember, immediate success isn’t the only mark of a successful business. Don’t worry if you feel like you’re experiencing problems, as they’re just a part of progress.
