Why Working Harder Won’t Break Your Success Ceiling (and What To Do Instead)

As ambitious women, we’re often taught that success comes from relentless hustle and checking all the boxes. But what if I told you that working harder isn’t always the answer? In fact, it might be the very thing holding you back from achieving your biggest goals.

I’ve seen it time and time again – high-achieving women pushing themselves to the brink, convinced that if they just work a little harder, success will follow. But here’s the truth bomb: you cannot outwork a subconscious block.

The Invisible Wall Between You and Your Goals

Think about it. Have you ever felt like you’re doing everything right, yet something still isn’t clicking? You’re showing up, taking action, following all the strategies, but the results just aren’t matching your effort. If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. Welcome to what I call the “doing trap.”

The doing trap is that sneaky little voice that tells you to just push harder, hustle more, and eventually, you’ll break through. But here’s the kicker – no amount of external action can overcome an internal belief that’s working against you.

The Subconscious: Your Hidden Operating System

Your subconscious mind is like the operating system of your life. It’s running in the background, making decisions and influencing your actions without you even realizing it. And just like your phone’s OS, if it’s outdated or buggy, no amount of new apps (or in this case, strategies) will make it work better.

Here’s the thing: your subconscious beliefs were largely formed before the age of eight. These could be from offhand remarks, parental beliefs, or even TV shows you watched. And now, these beliefs are silently shaping your reality.

Some common subconscious blocks include:

• “Success is selfish”
• “Money is hard to make”
• “I have to struggle to earn success”
• “I’m not good enough”
• “I’m not ready”

Sound familiar? These beliefs act like a glass ceiling, invisibly limiting how high you can soar, no matter how hard you work.

The Will Smith Effect: Why Hard Work Isn’t Enough

Let’s talk about Will Smith for a second. Here’s a guy who prided himself on being able to outwork anyone in showbiz. He was the poster child for hustle culture. And yet, his career took a nosedive seemingly overnight.

Why? Because no amount of hard work can overcome a subconscious belief that’s not aligned with your goals. It’s like trying to drive with one foot on the gas and one on the brake. You might move forward, but you’ll never reach top speed.

Breaking Free: How to Rewire Your Subconscious for Success

So, if working harder isn’t the answer, what is? The key lies in rewiring your subconscious mind. Here’s how:

1. Identify Your Subconscious Blocks

Start paying attention to the areas where you feel stuck or resistant. These are often clues to underlying beliefs holding you back.

2. Question Your Beliefs

Once you’ve identified a limiting belief, ask yourself: Is this really true? Where did this belief come from? How is it serving me?

3. Create New, Empowering Beliefs

Replace those limiting beliefs with new, empowering ones that align with your goals and vision for success.

4. Use Hypnotherapy

Hypnotherapy is a powerful tool for accessing and rewiring your subconscious mind. It allows you to bypass that critical 5% of your conscious mind and work directly with the 95% that’s running the show.
