Mark Franklin - The Four Fears® Guy

Everything you need to get past your pesky 'Mind Monkeys'

Published 5 months ago • 1 min read

Hi there Reader,

The successes we dream of in our business often sit just the other side of hesitation. Something has made us pause rather than act.

Our 'Mind Monkeys' have whispered in our ear "Not yet. You're not ready. You're not good enough. Come back to it when you have the time, otherwise you will fail".

Those Mind Monkeys are wrong!

You are way more capable than you think. And I'd like to explain how I know this to be true:

  • Fear is a choice
  • Failure is a matter of opinion
  • These are your choices (and opinions)
  • You can change them

How? Well it's a bit too long to get into by email... so I wrote a book! :-)

How to Embrace The Four Fears of Business Ownership

Publishing Monday 17th February - £12.99 (Amazon)
​26,000 words, 160 pages

The four most common whispers from those pesky 'Monkeys' are explored, explained and embraced. We turn inertia into victory. We explore what it is you really want, why that is important to you and what you are prepared to do to make it happen.

Then we dig into what effective action looks like, as you step beyond your current Comfort Zone and begin to create the impact you wish to share with the world.

Want to know more?

Join me on LinkedIn on launch day (17th February, 2pm UK) as I unbox, and open up the book, sharing with you some of the nuggets it contains, to help you embrace those Four Fears®.

I'll share links for pre-orders etc. as soon as they are available.

It's time to let the 'Monkeys' go

You ARE ready, you ARE good enough and you DESERVE the success that is waiting for you on the other side of those hesitations.

Thank you in advance for your support and interest in the book - I know it is going to make a massive difference to your business journey.

Onwards to Victory!

So here's a question Reader, Do you find yourself clinging to small, longstanding, unhelpful beliefs about your business – ones that feel safer to hide behind than to challenge? Things like: Mondays are always a bit rubbish No point starting anything on a Friday afternoon Everyone switches off once the school holidays begin (so best wait 'til September) A recession is a terrible time to start a business A recession is a fantastic time to start a business (see what I did there?) Like most...

Mark and Joe Franklin. Mark is on the left with a quiff and beard. Joe is on the right. He is bald. Both are smiling. Joe is proof as to why nice guys don't finish last.

Well, that was unexpected Reader! Up until a week ago, I would say that May has been the most successful and enjoyable month of my self-employed business journey: Two fabulous events (speaking and exhibiting) Dozens of magical new humans exploring the world of the Four Fears® Unbelievable book sales ...and more... Bloody plot twists Often, when I have guested on various podcasts, I have talked about my dad being my hero. When we're little, we get asked what we want to be when we grow up. I...

'Victory Wheel', illustrating a circular seven-step pathway to move your business from where you are, to where you deserve to be

Spin, spin, spin the wheel Reader! I love a good step-by-step process. "Do this, then that... and it will all work out". Wouldn't it be great if life was that linear? No curve balls or plot twists... a simple guarantee to move forwards with every action. Of course there are curve balls, but there is beauty in each of them. They are the surprises that might catch you out, but that open doors to new and sometimes overlooked chapters in your unwritten story. Mindset is one of those playgrounds...
