Reading and learning… I stumbled on a great article from Start Up Mindset by Anabel Morales
5 Habits Every Aspirating Entrepreneur Should Adopt…
Confidence is Key
In the beginning, People are going to discourage us as new entrepreneurs…
Tell us why it won’t work…
They may even laugh at our dreams, our goals, our aspirations…
We can either shut down or “run with it” and use it as a learning experience…
Don’t be afraid to step out of the comfort zone and put yourself out there to build your confidence…
We can start small…sing in a karaoke bar, do interviews…
The Learning Never Stops
The need for learning continues…do research on an entrepreneur that inspires you…
Take time to learn about business and industry related topics daily…it helps to transition in entrepreneurship…
Aspiring Entrepreneurs can make a mistake by not taking the time to learn about their industry or business…this can lead to poor decision making…
Knowledge is power!
Surround Yourself with the Right People
Family and friends are great to have around…but they may not have the best advice for an aspiring entrepreneur…
They may cause us to have doubts or fears of failure…
Attending events and being around other entrepreneurs or business gurus will help give the support needed for success…
Take Risks
This can be scary, being used to the consistent paycheck of a 9 to 5 job…
Learn to be okay when not everything goes as planned…
There will be moments when our business is not going as well as planned and moments when business is booming…
Wake Up Early
Can be tough, especially if we are night people…
Research has indicated productivity is increased throughout the day when we wake up earlier…
We can gradually wake earlier each day and notice productivity increasing…
Many successful business leaders are well known early risers…
Changing our daily lifestyles and adopting new habits can lead to thoughts of inconvenience, and the habits above may be out of our comfort zones…but remember change can be a good thing and lead to great success!
Remember to take care of yourself, your health is of great importance to your ability to move forward in attaining your goals, dreams and desires…
Be there for yourself, your loved ones and make this world a better place for everyone…
