Are You Trying to Be Loved… or Trying to Show Love?

<p>Are you building your business from love or from the need for approval?</p> <p data-start="1140" data-end="1384">In this solo episode of the <strong data-start="1168" data-end="1209">Profitable Christian Business Podcast</strong>, Doug Greathouse explores one of the hidden motivations that may be holding back Christian entrepreneurs: the difference between trying to be loved and choosing to show love.</p> <p data-start="1386" data-end="1754">Doug shares why entrepreneurs can sometimes use business as a way to chase validation, respect, recognition, applause, and approval. The problem is that approval is a moving target. One goal leads to another goal. One level of recognition creates the desire for more recognition. And when your identity depends on people's response, fear becomes your operating system.</p> <p data-start="1756" data-end="2148">In this episode, Doug unpacks how this motivation affects leadership, marketing, sales, networking, parenting, relationships, and how entrepreneurs handle success and failure. He also points back to the example of Jesus, who did not live for public approval, but showed love even when it cost Him, even when He was misunderstood, rejected, and abandoned.</p> <p data-start="2150" data-end="2163">You'll learn:</p> <ul data-start="2165" data-end="2600"> <li data-start="2165" data-end="2226" data-section-id="1f5x117">Why approval-seeking creates fear, pressure, and exhaustion</li> <li data-start="2227" data-end="2285" data-section-id="k26qe7">How entrepreneurship can become a vehicle for validation</li> <li data-start="2286" data-end="2340" data-section-id="arjrdr">Why showing love creates freedom, purpose, and peace</li> <li data-start="2341" data-end="2420" data-section-id="gjla6t">How your motivation changes your marketing, sales, networking, and leadership</li> <li data-start="2421" data-end="2495" data-section-id="skp9du">Why identity rooted in Christ frees you from needing constant validation</li> <li data-start="2496" data-end="2600" data-section-id="4za8i5">How to ask a better question before your next sales call, post, networking event, or business decision</li> </ul> <p data-start="2602" data-end="2811">If you are a Christian entrepreneur, business owner, leader, coach, or creator who wants to build from identity, service, authenticity, and faith instead of fear, this episode will challenge and encourage you.</p> <p data-start="2813" data-end="2916"><strong data-start="2813" data-end="2890">Start building your next 90-day execution plan with the Goal Getting App:</strong><br data-start="2890" data-end= "2893" /> <a class="decorated-link" href="https://goalgetting.app" target= "_new" rel="noopener" data-start="2893" data-end= "2916">https://goalgetting.app</a></p> <p data-start="2918" data-end="2969"><strong data-start="2918" data-end="2940">Connect with Doug:</strong><br data-start="2940" data-end="2943" /> <a href= "https://www.facebook.com/DougGreathouse/">https://www.facebook.com/DougGreathouse/</a></p>
