Have you ever caught yourself jumping from one exciting idea to the next before finishing the last one? That restless urge to chase every new possibility might feel productive, but it often leads to scattered focus and stalled growth. In this week's episode of the Sales Maven Show, Nikki Rausch explores the psychology behind Shiny Object Syndrome and how understanding your motivational traits can help you stay on track, reignite your sales, and bring more money through the door. Nikki explains that our natural attraction to novelty is not a flaw but a motivational trait. Some people thrive on "new and different," constantly seeking stimulation through variety and big shifts, while others prefer "same and sameness," valuing stability and predictability. Both traits have strengths and weaknesses, especially in business. Entrepreneurs who love new ideas often jump to fresh projects too quickly, abandoning profitable ones before they reach their full potential. The key, Nikki shares, is learning how to feed your motivation without losing your focus. Through real-life examples from her own business and her clients, Nikki shows how small changes can keep things fresh without discarding what works. Maybe that means updating an existing course, relaunching a proven offer with a new twist, or reigniting excitement around services that already generate income. She emphasizes the importance of doubling down on what actually moves the needle because if 80 percent of your revenue comes from 20 percent of your offers, your energy should be focused where it counts. By the end of this episode, you'll understand why chasing every "next big thing" can quietly drain your sales and how to reignite passion and creativity without losing focus. Nikki reminds us that the goal isn't to suppress curiosity but to channel it strategically, using your unique motivational style to grow your business sustainably.
