“I always mess everything up” creates shame.
“I messed this up, what can I learn from it?” creates growth.

And that’s the difference between accountability and self-punishment.

Your self-talk becomes the environment you live in every single day. Make sure it’s one that helps you grow.

[Brivael Le Pogam @brivael]

Move forward.

And never what if.

[Manon @Mindwithmanon]

@brivael Karma in business is real !!

[Manon @Mindwithmanon]

As a founder you literally have 37 minutes to celebrate a win until you face another inconvenience 😂

[Manon @Mindwithmanon]

Self-talk sounds so woo-woo until you realize the world’s best athletes use it.

Your brain doesn’t believe what’s true : it believes what you repeatedly tell it.

-> Your thoughts shape your feelings.
-> Your feelings drive your actions.
-> Your actions become who you are.

So when you talk to yourself, you are training your brain to believe it and become it. Be intentional

[Manon @Mindwithmanon]

If I meet you, I’ll give you 100% of my trust.
And yes, I know you could betray me. But I don’t care.

I don’t start relationships with suspicion.
I don’t ask people to “earn” my trust first.
I start with trust, by default.

Here’s why : what you do with my trust, is your responsibility.

And I would rather be wrong 10% of the time
than suspicious 100% of the time.

Because constant doubt creates control, and control kills relationship.

It is not naïve, it’s intentional.
You can lose my trust, but you don’t have to fight to get it.

[Manon @Mindwithmanon]

Audio at 2x speed.
Scrolling 20 reels at 1.5x speed.
Eating with your phone.
Tracking your sleep score.

And then we wonder why we feel stressed.
I’m not against any of it.
I just think that in a world constantly asking us to go faster, being intentional about slowing down has never been more important.

[Manon @Mindwithmanon]

You can’t be creative if you don’t leave space for your own thoughts.

Reading, watching videos, listening to podcasts : all great.

But critical thinking isn’t built by consuming more.

It’s built by confronting what you learn with what you actually experience.

Consume. Live. Think for yourself.

[Manon @Mindwithmanon]

I think the fastest way to attract what you deserve is to become completely unavailable to what you don’t :

If you want to feel good in your body, you need to become unavailable for the habits that make you feel bad.

If you want success, you need to become unavailable for the easy way out every time things get hard.

Because how do you expect to get what you want if you dont create space for it ?

You need to train your brain to recognize what belongs in the life you want and what doesn’t anymore.

Remember: a bold move looks like a dumb move until it works

[Manon @Mindwithmanon]

In Japan, one of my favorite art is called Kintsugi: broken pottery is repaired with gold instead of hiding the cracks.

The damage doesn’t make the piece less valuable but becomes part of what makes it unique.

We understand this for a broken bowl. Why is it so hard to understand it for ourselves?

I think this is a beautiful expression of resilience.

[Manon @Mindwithmanon]

“I’ll take a break when it’s done” is one of the biggest lies an entrepreneur can tell themselves. There is no finish line when you run a business.

So take the walk, clear your mind and then keep going.

[Manon @Mindwithmanon]

Some people hide their rudeness behind honesty, “But I’m just too honest.” No. You’re emotionally dumb.

Honesty without emotional intelligence is just cruelty disguised as a virtue.

[Manon @Mindwithmanon]

@brivael le mal de ventre juste en lisant ce mot. administratif pareil, y a des mots clés comme ça ahah

[Manon @Mindwithmanon]

@_raphaelogg Everything takes work. The point is that your customer pays for the value you create, not how much you suffered creating it

[Manon @Mindwithmanon]

too many founders confuse effort with value. We were taught that success has to feel hard to be deserved.

But your customers don’t care if it took you 10 minutes or 10 sleepless nights.

They care about one thing: Did you create value for them?

Use your experience.
Use your network.
Use your competitive advantage.
Use your unfair advantage.

There’s nothing noble about making success harder than it needs to be.

Money doesn’t reward exhaustion but value.

[Manon @Mindwithmanon]

There’s a difference between accountability and self-punishment. “I messed this up, what can I learn from it?” creates growth.

“I always mess everything up” creates shame.

You don’t need to lower your standards or make excuses for yourself.

You can hold yourself accountable AND still speak to yourself with respect.

Your self-talk becomes the environment you live in every single day. Make sure it’s one that helps you grow.

[Manon @Mindwithmanon]

I will always choose clarity over comfort. Even if it means rejection. I’d rather ask and know than stay silent and wonder in business, love, or anything I truly want. Like, what do you mean overthinking for no reason??

[Manon @Mindwithmanon]

@kalyso13 and it is liberating for founders to really understand that when it comes to their energy
