That might look like organizing and optimizing your inbox or clarifying how your business operates. But Natasha isn\\u2019t just passionate about systems: she\\u2019s always looking for ways to optimize her own life and limitations to show up with more clarity in business. In this episode, she shares just how she does that through affirmations, paring down to just one-on-one clients, and much more.\\nWe release new episodes of What Works every week.

I realize more and more, I\\u2019m just this one single person and my weaknesses, or things that don\\u2019t go well for me as a person in my day-to-day life, those same things show up in my business.\\u201d \\u2014 Natasha Vorompiova\\nSeparating yourself from your business is nearly impossible as an entrepreneur. Any shortcomings in your personal life show up in business just as much as your strengths. That\\u2019s something Natasha recently learned and started to tend to more.\\n\\u201cI started looking for patterns,\\u201d she says, \\u201cwhere things don\\u2019t work overall in business or in my personal life. I started noticing what doesn\\u2019t work and tried to concentrate just working on that element.\\u201d For example, Natasha wouldn\\u2019t voice her opinion with some individuals in her personal life. That bled into her business and she\\u2019d struggle with having an upfront conversation with a client.\\nTrue to her nature, Natasha decided to focus in on that personal shortcoming to see if she could improve it. And she did, making it that much easier to have tough conversations and ask her clients deep questions. \\u201cWhen I started to allow myself to ask questions that were a bit more confronting and not just systems focused, we are able to discover so much more,\\u201d she adds.\\nWho do you need to be to achieve your goals?\\n\\u201cI started paying very, very close attention to who I need to be in order to achieve something. That\\u2019s how I can then make sure that the action I take leads to the goals that I want to achieve.\\u201d \\u2014 Natasha Vorompiova\\nHave you ever felt like your goals were unattainable because of your (real or perceived) personal limitations? Without paying close attention to what you\\u2019re aiming for, it\\u2019s easy to slide off the path. That diversion comes by way of procrastination and avoidance, says Natasha.\\n\\u201cWhen I begin procrastinating or avoiding something, I know I need to confront that versus just pushing through it,\\u201d she says. At the end of the day, \\u201cthe goal itself or the money is not what we\\u2019re after,\\u201d says Natasha. \\u201cWe\\u2019re after what that goal represents or what it will allow us.\\u201d\\nHow about you? Is there somewhere in your life that bleeds into the way you operate your business that might negatively impact it? Is there a way that you can focus on it so that you\\u2019re able to realign with your path forward?\\nUsing affirmations to reach your goals\\n\\u201cThe process of it made such a big difference and impression on me the very first time because I was able to feel and connect to that statement on a totally different level.\\u201d \\u2014 Natasha Vorompiova\\nHave you ever used affirmations as a mindset tool to reach your goals?'
