Here's how you can cultivate a growth mindset for success as a motivational speaker.

Engage with your audience from the outset. Build rapport by showing genuine interest in their perspectives and needs. Ask questions, encourage participation, and create a dialogue rather than a monologue. This approach can help you better understand their concerns and tailor your responses accordingly.

Without welcoming opportunities to grow one’s abilities through challenging tasks and stepping outside of your comfort zone, growth becomes impeded The more we break the self impose limitations and pursue something different we unleash more inner abilities and gifting There’s always growth outside of the comfort zone

Being internally motivated and energized to achieve a task is one sure way for long term sustainability One needs to also draw inspiration from their WHY and purpose for what they seek to do and stick with it

Constantly work to create new streams of revenue, and freshen the way you market your topic so that it solves the current problems of the day. Build a strong body of work online that establishes your credibility and expertise. Speak as often as you can to plant seeds for the future. A few well paying gigs might be nice, but a lot of not-so-great paying gigs might pave the way for more business. Just something to think about. The best marketing is a good speech. This is a word-of-mouth business, so get in front of as many people as you can to illustrate your work. Constantly create new books, brand campaigns, and topics to make a splash.
