How to be Successful in Business by Harnessing the Power of Words with Mary

Woman entrepreneur, author, and accidental mentor, Mary Shores joins us on Beyond the Rut to share how to be successful in business by harnessing the power of words. It may seem oversimplified that if you know how to change your mindset and attitude you can succeed in your business venture, career goals, or some other challenge.

The words we speak over ourselves, within ourselves, or about ourselves have the power to propel us forward or hold us back. Brandon Cunningham often says about self-talk that “If anyone spoke to you the way you speak to yourself, you’d punch that person in the mouth.” How do you change your mindset for success? Change the words you use about your dream. Remove “but” from your vocabulary.

Why Mary Shores Can Show You How to be Successful in Business

Mary opened up a collection agency at the age of 24 years old. She was a woman CEO in an industry dominated by men. Finding clarity on why she went into the business helped her reshape her perspective on customer service. What if we collected what is owed to our clients and make those on the other end of the call feel happier?

Shores not only found success in collections in a revolutionary way, she became the accidental mentor to her staff, women entrepreneurs and anyone looking to get out of a rut in any given area of their lives.

Her book titled Conscious Communications shares the key to success in life may lie in how we speak about our goals and dreams.
