If I told you I could guarantee your success, would you believe me?Here’s why I feel confident guaranteeing your success: it’s not about a class, program, or anything else outside of you that’s going to help you create what you want, it’s about you. This episode is all about going after something and getting it, or in other words, creating the life you want. However you look at it, this process is all about getting results. I’m sharing the five mental shifts that guarantee success as you go after what you want. As you listen to the examples in this episode, you’re going to think that some of them don’t apply to you, but stick with me because they all illustrate a concept that I want you to understand. Before you tune in, think of one thing that you’re trying to create or one result you’re trying to achieve. I want you to keep that one thing in mind as you listen. Do you have what it takes to create your own success? I think so. 2:38 - Three mini-stories to show why you have to make things happen instead of waiting for them to happen for you12:03 - What you block out or don’t hear about in overnight success stories17:50 - Do this before you decide on something (i.e. a lesson my dad taught me)19:34 - The question you ask that signals your unwillingness to take as long as necessary to create the result you want24:05 - Why you have to create your own version of success28:32 - What will keep you in stuck stress mode and get in the way of growth32:52 - What the result you want to create isn’t intended to do for youMentioned In The Five Mental Shifts That Guarantee Success Committed to GrowthSchedule a call with AndreaContact Andrea at andrea@andrealiebross.com, Instagram, Facebook, or LinkedInOther Episodes You'll Enjoy:Episode 47: “Client Success Story: Get Life Rolling Again with Veronica Tubbs”

You can talk to family or friends about business or parenting or relationships and they’ll not understand where you’re coming from.That’s why we crave to be a part of a group and why I offer coaching in group-based containers.
