Be-Do-Have Mindset

The powerful mindset shift you need to make today

When it comes to mindset, there are so many different ways to go about thinking and approaches - in life, business, relationships, what have you. But in particular, there is a type of thinking called “Be-Do-Have” thinking that is actually pivotal in both the state of mind and results from thinking in such an approach.

Be-Do-Have thinking is the concept of:

“Being” who you need to be and “Doing” what must be done in order to “Have” what you desire, or a specific outcome. 

In essence, when you embrace the version of yourself that you desire to be, then embody that version’s actions through doing, then you will have the outcome you are looking for.

But most of the time, we actually get it backwards, we think that we have to “have” something, in order to be able to “do” something, and therefore “be” this version (or insert your adjective here) of ourselves. In reality, while this thinking might make more sense, it’s not actually how things work.

Here are two examples:

The Sales Example

Let’s say you work a sales job and you are commission only. It is easy to say “Well I have to have (have) leads in order to sell (do) and make a commission and make money and be a high performer/make money/become rich (be). The problem is, this is a victim mentality. 

Let’s reverse the roles here and say you have a “Be-Do-Have” mentality. If you “be” the person you need to be by taking action and “doing” what needs to be done to be proactive, thorough, and search for leads, then you will “have” the leads you need to have the opportunity to have money. Does that make sense?

Sure, as with all things in life there will be factors beyond your control, but you are self-sabotaging by saying that you can’t do your job until you have x, when in reality you could go out and find what you need by being and doing, in order to have what you want. 

The Manifestation Example

Manifestation works the same exact way. If you feel that you have to “have” something in order to “do” something in your life and “be” a version of yourself you desire to be, you’ve got it backwards. The Universe will give when you ask, but in order to receive you have to be at a vibrational frequency to receive - which means, you got it, you have to be that version of yourself, and already be doing what you would be doing if you “had” what you desire, and then you will receive what you ask for from the Universe.

Do you have a Be-Do-Have mentality? Or a Have-Do-Be mentality? Amazing things happen (dare I say, magical?), when you decide to be the person you have to be and do the things you have to do in order to have what you wanted in the first place.
