Those Business Owners who are on a scale-up journey would be making choices and taking decisions more often than those on a normal business journey. The mind-set, the thought process behind such choices and decisions, therefore assume a lot of importance.

The decisions we make are by and large ‘Growth-based’ or ‘Fear-based’. Fear-based decisions are made out of insecurity, feeling of scarcity, constraints, whereas Growth-based decisions are made out of confidence, sense of abundance, possibilities.

And we know Growth-based decisions become success stories later, whereas Fear-based decisions become regretful.

Studies show 80% of the decisions made globally are fear-based! And 20% growth-based.

If we were to ask a question what should be the ratio between Growth-based decisions and Fear-based decisions, for Business Owners scaling-up their businesses, the answer is obvious.

The question then, is how do I move more towards Growth-based decisions?
1. Awareness helps.
2. We could be more conscious while taking every decision.
3. We could start getting pulled by what we want, than pushed away by what we don’t want.
4. We could get ready to move out of our comfort zones.

Can I be mindful of the ratio that am following while making choices, taking decisions?
