Limiting Beliefs

Write down one belief holding you back from pitching, cross it out and replace with a fact you can act on today.

Say aloud one strength that disproves your belief you can’t lead this venture, repeat it with confidence.

Choose a small task you’ve avoided out of doubt, set a 10-minute timer and start it now.

Put a sticky note with a counter-belief on your screen, read it before every founder meeting.

Swap negative self-talk with “What if I can?”, test it in a safe, low-risk founder task.

Visualize yourself succeeding at something you believe you can’t do, notice the shift.

Empowering Beliefs

Choose one empowering belief and write it on a notecard to review before investor or client calls today.

Repeat an empowering belief in front of a mirror each morning, focus on tone, posture, and founder presence.

Create a phone lock screen with an empowering belief you want to carry into your founder week.

Share an empowering belief on LinkedIn, something that fuels your current approach to growth.

Choose a belief that energizes you, apply it to a current start-up challenge today.

Start your day by writing one empowering belief and one action it will spark today.

Opportunity beliefs

Pick one current setback in your start-up and write three opportunities it could unlock this week.

Start your day by asking: “Where could today’s biggest obstacle in my start-up become an opportunity?”

Revisit an ongoing project and identify one overlooked opportunity you could explore this week.

In your next meeting, reframe a concern as an opportunity in one clear founder-focused sentence.

Scan your to-do list and label one task as an “opportunity zone” for skill growth.

Set a 5-minute timer to brainstorm new opportunity angles on a recent founder failure.
