How it began
Whitney’s journey began in the talent industry as a model, actor, and event host. Her early career in front of the camera laid the foundation for her entrepreneurial path, leading her to work closely with corporate executives. These experiences evolved into global engagements with CEOs of multi-million and billion-dollar companies, shaping her understanding of the critical role mindset plays in achieving success.
The Role of Mindset
Whitney asserts that a primary barrier for many entrepreneurs, particularly women, is their mindset. She emphasizes, “Your mindset is your most powerful tool as you build your business or work towards any goal. A positive mindset differentiates high performers from everyone else.” The challenge often lies in overcoming the inner critic that seeds doubt and fear.
Cultivating Your Inner Champion in 5 Steps
-
Pay Attention to Your Thoughts
The first step is being mindful of your thoughts. Whitney advises to observe when and where negative thoughts arise and to understand their origin without judgment.
-
Question the Origin of Your Thoughts
Determine whether a thought is genuinely yours or a product of external influences. Whitney shares her own experience, “I remember thinking ‘Most people fail in their first year.’ I got curious about where it came from and realized it was not true for me.” It’s crucial to detach from false beliefs and reframe thoughts positively.
-
Replace Negative Thoughts with Positive Affirmations
Counter negative beliefs with positive affirmations. “Your subconscious mind is making 95% of your decisions and shaping your experience,” Whitney notes. It’s important to retrain the mind to adopt more positive thoughts consistently.
Examples:
Negative: I don’t have any good ideas.
Positive: My mind is full of exciting and brilliant ideas.
Negative: I am a failure.
Positive: My potential to succeed is limitless.
Negative: I’m never going to make money.
Positive: I am worthy of the money I desire.
-
Celebrate All Your Wins
Recognizing and celebrating small victories is a powerful strategy that reinforces effort and progress. “Celebrating your wins helps us to stack all the positive evidence,” Whitney explains. This practice contributes to long-term success.
-
Revisit Your Thoughts
As you continue to affirm positive thoughts and celebrate your successes, notice the growth in your confidence and belief in yourself. Whitney emphasizes, “You are now moving beyond traditional ‘mindset’ work, to literally rewiring your brain.”
Remember
The inner critic can be relentless, but it’s your choice to let your inner champion take over. Whitney recommends targeting one negative thought at a time and replacing it with a powerful positive affirmation.
