What Drives Sustainable Business Growth

Business growth all comes down to where you focus your energy. And by energy, I mean your time, money, resources, and your mental, physical, and emotional attention.

This isn’t groundbreaking news, but let’s pause for a moment and take inventory: where did most of your energy go this past year? If you’re like many entrepreneurs, a significant amount probably went toward figuring out how to outdo your competitors and grab more market share.

We’ve been taught to always keep a close eye on the competition. It's practically a mantra in the entrepreneurial world: know your competitors to grow your business. But wait, this mindset asks you to shift your energy away from your business…

Think about it: when you’re feeling uninspired, where do you look? When you’re feeling stuck, where do you look? When you’re brainstorming your next idea, where do you look? When prepping for a launch or how to market something, where do you look? When you go to measure how well you are doing, where do you look?

You get the idea. We’ve all been guilty of this, myself included. Early in my wellness business, I fell into the pattern, constantly watching what others were doing. And guess what? I wasn’t growing in the direction I wanted. I was replicating outcomes that didn’t align with my vision, simply because they were familiar and "safe."

Here’s the uncomfortable truth: this habit often comes from fear. Fear that our own unique ideas won’t work. Fear of standing out. Fear of failing and taking full responsibility if things don’t go as planned. So instead, we default to what’s already proven and accepted. And when it doesn’t work? We can blame the system or someone else’s blueprint, rather than ourselves.

But operating from this place keeps us in a cycle of constant output—spinning our wheels just to keep up with the competition. Think about how much energy you waste looking left and right. Imagine what could happen if you channeled all of that energy directly into your own business.

I see this pattern with my clients all the time: they’re so focused on what others are doing, how to keep up and how fast they are growing that they overlook the key areas needed to grow themselves.

Real, sustainable business growth comes from stepping back, putting on blinders to the competition, and focusing solely on your business. It’s in this space of introspection and clarity that the seeds for quantum growth are planted. This is where you confront the doubts, fears, and limiting beliefs that have been running the show. And once you shift the energetic foundation of your business, innovative ideas come to life. Suddenly, what your competitors are doing doesn’t matter anymore.
