Overcome Your Own Inhibiting Beliefs: Tear Down the Invisible Wall

At Feel-Good MSP, we’re focused on breaking down the Invisible Wall between what we’re doing and what we know we should be doing next.

We all know that gaining knowledge is critical to business growth (otherwise, you wouldn’t be reading this post). But far more important is the ability and willingness to put that knowledge into action.

The reality is, most people experience a gap between their actions and their intentions. Over time, we can become set in our routines—comfortable, even if they’re not serving us well. There’s a fear of disrupting the current process, no matter how ineffective it may be.

The Invisible Wall

I call this disconnect, this unseen barrier, the Invisible Wall. It holds back growth and makes us feel trapped. It’s not due to lack of intent or information but lack of confidence in how to execute.

Because this Invisible Wall isn’t easily seen, it’s easy to ignore. Instead of focusing on business growth, we end up focusing our energy on smaller, measurable tasks that help us feel productive but ultimately distract us from addressing the core challenges holding us back.  

Productivity Traps

We often think we’re just "too busy" or "procrastinating." But you are not a procrastinator. These are symptoms of a deeper issue: the Invisible Wall holding us back from strategic growth.

Rather than lead generation or business development, MSP owners often invest their time in easier, familiar tasks to avoid confronting the unknown. The wall is reinforced by fear and uncertainty. Rather than admitting what’s stopping them, MSP leaders convince themselves they’re too overwhelmed to address bigger priorities.

Is it time to face the wall head-on and identify what’s truly holding you back? 

There is no better use of an MSP owner's time than to enable the organization to evolve.

When you’re ready to break through, you’ll unlock new levels of growth in both your business and your confidence.

Actionable Steps to Start Tearing Down the Wall

Ready to start? Here are a few ways to challenge the Invisible Wall and move forward with intention:

1. Reflect Honestly: Identify one task you’ve been putting off that aligns with your core business goals. Take 15 minutes to ask yourself why you’ve delayed it and what you’re truly avoiding.
2. Prioritize High-Impact Tasks: Make a list of tasks you perform regularly. Rank them by how they impact business growth. If they aren’t moving the needle, reconsider their priority and who is tackling them.
3. Schedule ‘Uncomfortable’ Time: Block time on your calendar every week for uncomfortable but necessary activities like lead generation, outreach, or personal development. Treat it as non-negotiable.
4. Seek Accountability: If you’re struggling to break out of this rut alone, join a peer group or consider MSP sales coaching, where you can openly discuss your barriers and set clear, actionable goals.
5. Celebrate Wins: Acknowledge each time you take action that moves you past a perceived barrier, no matter how small. It builds momentum.

Turn Intentions Into Steps

When you recognize the Invisible Wall and take small, intentional actions to break through it, the results are transformative. It’s not about moving fast—it’s about moving forward with clarity and purpose. If you’re ready to challenge your inhibiting beliefs, identify your most impactful tasks, and build sustainable momentum, the Feel-Good MSP team can help you set the stage for new consistent growth.
