Women Business Owners - Build Your Self-Esteem and Deepen Your Confidence

By Beth Davis

After reading thousands of hands in the hand analysis (non-predictive palmistry) business, I would say the "Life Lesson" of humanity is self-esteem issues. If you doubt yourself, how are you going to trust something as subtle, fast and laser sharp as your intuition for making business decisions?

Having good self-esteem is vital to harnessing the power of your intuition in business. And here's the catch: If women business owners ask for help from their intuition and don't listen, their intuitive awareness may go into hibernation. If you ask and listen, but don't ACT, then you create stagnation, procrastination and all sorts of challenges.

Here are three quick tips, learned over years of palm reading, for women business owners to build their self-esteem and deepen their confidence in their inner guidance:

Spirituality and Business Tip #1: Delete all non-essential email for one week.

Answer only those emails that are personal or business related. You don't have to unsubscribe from everything or do anything drastic. Just cut out the noise for one week.

Notice your discomfort in deleting your non-essential email. (I receive hundreds of emails per day. Only 50 are business emails that need responses and by responding to those emails, I actually ADD efficiency to my life.) Notice if you feel anxious that you are going to miss something. Notice if you can't do it this week and want to put it off to next week. Who REALLY has the answers to your life? You or a message in an electronic box?

Spirituality and Business Tip #2: Don't do anything - and I do mean anything - that you don't want to do.

This is different from not doing something because it's uncomfortable or because you are scared. There is a fine distinction here. If you don't want to do something, you know it in every cell of your body. BUT you may be tempted to do it anyway in order to: avoid someone's wrath or criticism, be pleasing, get your way, manipulate someone or get revenge. Just to name some of the many methods of self-betrayal that I see in my palmistry practice.

Spirituality and Business Tip #3: Make commitments to your self that you can keep.

As a palmistry expert, I recommend that instead of saying, "I'm going to start working out five days a week, start writing for two hours every day and start organizing all my paperwork every week," why not commit to: "I'm going to move my body twice a week in a way that is pleasurable to me. I will write five minutes on Friday and build upon that. I will hire someone to organize my paperwork." Many women business owners in my palm reading business have learned from this tip. By making commitments you can keep, you build your self-esteem, and hence, your faith in yourself and in your intuition in making business decisions.

Confidence Booster - You Can Achieve Your Dream

By Jan Verhoeff

Do you ever have that feeling that you're being pulled down into a bucket of crabs? There they are all around you pulling you back from the edge of success, beating you down and pouncing on you to keep you at the bottom, but you see the daylight, and you know there's sand. You can escape.

Set Goals

You set your goals on that sky and you climb. Sometimes it means you step on someone's head, when they just stay there in the way, and you might even be able to help someone along the way, but ultimately in order for you to get to the sand, you have to get out of the bucket first. Set your goals and move toward the sky. Climb to safety. Once you're in the successful sands of life you can find a rope and toss it back for the rest of the crabs to climb to safety.

Metaphor of Reality

It's a metaphor of reality, but those crabs I the bucket don't want you to escape, because they're afraid if you escape, they won't be able to find you and you'll for get about them. The reality is, if you don't escape, you'll always be one of them. But if you want more you must escape the crabs that keep pulling you back. You must be free, in order to help them help themselves, one of you must escape.

Misled to Believe

Have you been misled to believe there's safety in numbers? Those crabs are all going to be someone's dinner if they stay in the bucket. They have to escape one at a time, or they'll continue to pull each other back and remain in the bucket until they get dumped in a pan of boiling water and cooked for dinner.

If you put just one crab in a bucket, he'll crawl out. You must have two crabs in a bucket so they'll keep pulling each other back in. You'll have to escape alone. You can't escape with someone who is pulling you back.

Are you ready to achieve your dreams?
