Entrepreneur mindset - The first step to success

by Simon Tan

 What Creates Entrepreneurs?

Entrepreneurs do not emerge by themselves; they are created through a strong urge to achieve success. Success rarely happens by chance and it will not last long if it does happen in this manners.

To be successful as an entrepreneur is not by chance, it will not happen this way.
However, success can almost be guaranteed if you have the correct entrepreneurial mindset in place, this is the first step every entrepreneur must have.

Investing in yourself

After having the correct entrepreneur mindset, you are set to achieve great success?
Unfortunately, life is not that simple. It takes more to achieve success.

A lot people are willing to invest time and effort into their current jobs, hoping that their boss will appreciate it and get promoted. However, that is not the key to become an entrepreneur. People fail to realize that they need to invest in themselves, their greatest asset of all.

Start to invest in yourself doing research and acquire the proper knowledge. If you need to invest some money, go do it. A successful entrepreneur made decision fast base on calculated risk and are dare to take risk trying different things to become successful.

Accept Failure

Unfortunately, life is not as smooth as one would like to be. In the process of building a business, you are bound to face a lot a failure along the way. You must treat every failure as a lesson and you must learn from every failure you face.

You must have the desire to succeed, persistence and an unwillingness to quit. The more you fail at the start, the more you will achieve success at a later stage as you become smarter.

Benefits of being an Entrepreneur

Why people want to be an entrepreneur?

There are a lot of benefits associated if you are a successful entrepreneur. It will change your lifestyle completely.

- You will achieve financial independent
- You will have a sense of great satisfaction

There are a lot more benefits that you can imagine….

Action speak louder than words

Today, I would like to share with you my personal MOTO that keeps driving me towards success and I hope it will benefit you as well.

 â€œSuccess starts from a dream and it take actions to realize it…..”

Just by having a big dream is only the first step to success, nothing will happen if you just sit on it doing nothing. You need to have strategies and plans moving towards your big dream. In having a clear picture of where you are heading, you need to draft out a plan on your drawing board and take one step at a time. Be patient and do the right things, result will certainly comes at a later stage if not sooner.

So take your actions NOW, I mean “Today”…..

Hey wealthdreamer, this is a great post!

You have some great tips in here; I know a lot of people shy away from becoming entrepreneurs because they're so stuck in their daily routine, they feel somewhat "settled in" and don't want to take a risk, but the benefits are so great that it's almost worth it, if you've got the drive and work ethic!

I'm an official Microsoft ambassador and right now we're really trying to scale up our connections with influential people in online communities like yourself. I'd love to share with you some of the stuff we've been doing in the last couple months to help women entrepreneurs; we're really committed to providing all the necessary resources to help women start, grow and expand their businesses.

We just wrapped up a women's entrepreneurial tour across the US called "Vision to Venture"; the response and turn-out was great!

I'd really love your take on these offerings we have right now.

Thank you so much, I hope I didn't overstep my bounds by directly contacting you. Definitely get back to me if I've piqued your interest - I'd love to share more info with you.

Best,
Ashley Baker
