Setting goals – clear and challenging ones – can only happen after you have clearly defined what success means to you. And that can be negatively influenced by your own limiting beliefs. Business coach Jai Long, touches on some of obstacles creatives face when shaping their lives and businesses.Explain your approach of being both successful and having an aligned mindset (2:54)Neither hustling nor being passive are good for your business. Hustling is just like running on a treadmill – going faster still won’t get you anywhere. You have to get off and walk to success.How do you manage you mind when you tend to self-sabotage (4:38)Identify the feelings you have, and then dissect why you are feeling that way. Control the inputs in your life, by surrounding yourself with positive people, and limiting negativity, so you can better serve your client with the output you create.What is a limiting belief, especially when setting goals?

For every little thing you do, ask whether it brings you closer to the goal.How do you let yourself enjoy multiple businesses or passions? (36:32)If business is as creative as we think, then why can’t we be creative with what we do? It’s naïve to just choose one thing and think we will be creatively fulfilled for the rest of our lives.
