Transcript
- 0:00What are some of the inner beliefs around how we approach business to the students and navigate challenges professionally?
- 0:07Could you share your insights onto aligning personal growth and business goals, especially when two seem to pull in different directions?
- 0:15so as far as business goes the reason I think I started to pay attention to it and started to
- 0:20get interested in it and become passionate about business was because the yoga principles and the
- 0:28inner work principles align completely with how to run a business there's so many parallels with
- 0:36business and life, right? Our own lives. So much of what you learn and how you grow as a person,
- 0:44as a being, feeds back into your business. Because especially when you're starting a business,
- 0:50those of you like in the startup phase, for a while it's going to be your business is like an
- 0:56extension of you. It's a reflection of you. So a lot of the blocks, all the blocks in the business,
- 1:03the the kind of chokehold of a business is it's the inner landscape of the owner reflected back
- 1:11into the business so when you work on you and you unblock things and you clear things and you heal
- 1:17things you start to see things flowing in in your business because you're the one who is making the
- 1:23bigger decisions in the business and the direction you're going to make better decisions for example
- 1:28right and how you deal with your people or your team and your customers the choices that you make
- 1:34the bit if you are afraid of going for the next thing and taking the business to the next level or
- 1:39maybe it's time to innovate because times have changed for example and you're too afraid to
- 1:44innovate that's another reason businesses die over time because the business is not innovating and
- 1:49the business is not innovating because whoever is in charge is not making the decisions to innovate
- 1:54and who's that normally?
- 1:56That's normally the owner
- 1:56unless you've let someone else
- 1:58run your team
- 1:59run your business for you
- 2:00in which case
- 2:01then you step completely
- 2:02into more like
- 2:03owner-investor type shoes
- 2:05which I don't think anyone
- 2:07hears at that point here.
- 2:09So there is a direct correlation
- 2:12and a mirror effect
- 2:14of our internal landscape
- 2:16as the owner of our own business
- 2:18into the business itself
- 2:21and when you start to shift
- 2:22and clear stuff
- 2:24your style, the business will start to get unblocked in those areas and start to flow
- 2:29in certain areas.
- 2:31You got things to work on around the energy of money, for example, you start to clear
- 2:36that and heal that, the business is going to start to have, let's say, more money flow
- 2:40through.
- 2:41So there's a direct relation, I would say, business to our inner, like you said, beliefs
- 2:47and personal healing work.
- 2:49What are some ways our inner beliefs and personal healing work impact how we approach our business decision?
- 2:56I would say completely 100% dependent.
- 2:59The business decisions come from the owner and the decisions come from the owners.
- 3:03What's going on inside, internally for them?
- 3:07Navigate challenges professionally.
- 3:10Could you share insights to align personal growth with business goals, especially when tools seem to pull in different directions?
- 3:16so to me I would say they may look like they're pulling in different directions but actually
- 3:21consider that maybe it's a one is a reflection of the other your business a reflection of you
- 3:27and your internal world and all the blocks that you're seeing in your business anything or what
- 3:33or who is causing this what external force is causing this again it's being a mirror all of
- 3:38these mirrors in our lives the business mirror as well for us to look at ourselves and work on
- 3:43ourselves. That's actually why in something like Inner Circle, for example, so many people come in
- 3:50and work on themselves and then their business, their business starts to fly. Because suddenly
- 3:57you start to work on yourself and then things start to fly in your business. Because you're
- 4:03able, where you're coming from, it's just a completely different place. So therefore your
- 4:08business will have to mirror that as well so i think people will think that business is just
- 4:15about strategies and tactics and they've got stuff to learn because business is to me it's a spiritual
- 4:24game we're learning but growing it's just another area of our life where it becomes a life-size
- 4:32mirror for us to look at ourselves and work on ourselves and it's going to grow you in ways that
- 4:38Maybe other things can't grow you.
- 4:40And it's like running a business is you're an athlete, like you're a pro athlete.
- 4:45You need stamina to be able to stay consistent with the thing and not give up and keep showing up when things are difficult even.
- 4:53And not get distracted when things are going great and take it for granted, for example.
- 4:58There's so much as a direct correlation, I would say.
- 5:01I can go on and on about this, but hopefully that gives a little answer to what you're asking there.
