MM 209 - A Key Skill Every Entrepreneur Needs (But No One Talks About)

Send us a text

In today's Maggie's Moment, Maggie dives into the critical but overlooked skill of expanding your emotional capacity—the key to navigating uncertainty, avoiding self-sabotage, and achieving 10X growth. 

Backed by neuroscience and 2023 studies, she reveals why traditional "hustle" fails and how to rewire your brain to thrive in the unknown.

Key Takeaways:

1️⃣ Why Emotional Capacity Matters

• The brain’s amygdala treats uncertainty as a threat, triggering fight/flight/freeze.
• Entrepreneurs with high emotional capacity are 3x more likely to hit big goals (2023 Entrepreneurial Psychology study).

2️⃣ The “Pivot Protocol”

• Reframe failure as data (not identity) to recover 42% faster.

3️⃣ How to Train It

• Recognise and name the fear (e.g., “I’m scared I’ll look stupid”) to disarm its power.
• Use the Dream-Plan-Do method to act before you feel “ready.”
