The second episode of The Boss Brew is coming out tomorrow, in which I’ll be chatting with Pedro Negrao. Pedro is a personal trainer from São Paulo, Brazil, who has used these 5 qualities below to transform his body and get into incredible shape. 

Let’s be honest, you’re ambitious, you want to dominate in business, and you want to feel incredible in your own skin. Well, guess what? These two goals aren’t as far apart as you might think.

The same mindset qualities that transform flabby business plans into thriving enterprises are the very same ones that sculpt beer bellies into six-packs. Intrigued? Let’s dive in…

1. Discipline: Your Secret Weapon for Success

Ever heard the saying, “Abs are made in the kitchen, not the gym”? Well, it’s true. Just like those rock-hard abs require consistent healthy choices, a successful business demands a disciplined approach.

• In Business: Discipline means sticking to your marketing plan, showing up for client meetings even when you’d rather binge-watch Netflix, and saying “no” to that shiny new office gadget when you know it’s not essential.
• In Fitness: Discipline means prepping healthy meals, hitting the gym even when it’s raining sideways, and resisting the siren call of the biscuit tin.

2. Resilience: Bouncing Back from Setbacks

In business and fitness, setbacks are inevitable. A marketing campaign flops, a client bails, or you injure yourself in the gym. The difference between those who succeed and those who don’t? Resilience.

• In Business: Resilient entrepreneurs view failures as learning opportunities. They dust themselves off, analyse what went wrong, and come back stronger than ever.
• In Fitness: Resilient athletes don’t let a missed workout or a plateau in progress derail their goals. They adjust their training, refocus their mindset, and keep pushing forward.

3. Adaptability: Embracing Change Like a Pro

The business terrain and your body are constantly evolving. To stay ahead of the game, you need to be adaptable.

• In Business: Adaptability means pivoting your strategy when the market shifts, embracing new technologies, and staying open to feedback from your team and customers.
• In Fitness: Adaptable athletes switch up their workouts to avoid plateaus, try new fitness classes, and modify their nutrition plans based on their changing needs.

4. Goal Setting: Your Roadmap to Success

Would you set off on a cross-country road trip without a map? Probably not. The same goes for your business and fitness journeys.

• In Business: Clear, measurable goals give you direction and purpose. They help you track your progress, celebrate wins, and identify areas for improvement.
• In Fitness: Specific, achievable fitness goals keep you motivated. Whether it’s running a marathon, losing 10 pounds, or lifting a certain weight, having a target in sight helps you stay focused.

5. Self-Belief: Your Inner Cheerleader

This is the big one. Without self-belief, your business and fitness goals will remain just that – goals.

• In Business: Believing in yourself and your vision is essential for overcoming obstacles, inspiring your team, and convincing investors to back your idea.
• In Fitness: Self-belief fuels your motivation, helps you push through tough workouts, and ultimately, achieve the results you crave.

Bonus Tip: Find a Mentor or Coach

Just as a personal trainer can guide you through your fitness journey, a business mentor or coach can provide invaluable support and guidance on your entrepreneurial path. They can offer advice, share their experiences, and help you stay accountable.

• Which of these mindset qualities do you already possess?
• Which ones could you work on?
• How can you apply these qualities to both your business and fitness goals?
