Fiction VS. Fact: Attributes of Successful Entrepreneurs

Welcome Back Fellow MLM'ers!

In today's post, I talk about what's required to move yourself to successful levels and beyond (towards and into sustainable business, over time).

Do You Have What It Takes?

Learn the characteristics and habits of creative, successful entrepreneurs. Many successful entrepreneurs have similar traits and characteristics. Learn what these are and see what you can do to improve yourself in your own time.

FICTION: To be an entrepreneur, you must be born that way.

FACT: Anyone can learn to operate like an entrepreneur.


FICTION: You're born with it.

FACT: You can be trained with the proper mentoring and the right access to solidly proven, repeatable information.


What Are the Similarities of Successful Entrepreneurs?

· Persistence
· Desire for immediate feedback - they're perplexed without this information because they can't serve others.
· Inquisitiveness
· Strong drive to achieve
· High energy level
· Goal-oriented behavior
· Independent
· Demanding - not because they're difficult, but because they demand solid solutions and they continually seek to deliver quality.
· Self-confident

· Tolerance for ambiguity
· Strong integrity

Many entrepreneurs also had a role model to influence them early on, and/or they had parents who were entrepreneurs.

Two traits necessary for successful entrepreneurs are creativity and innovation.


What is Creativity?

Creativity means -- being able to create new ideas, then find unique ways to solve peoples' problems while serving through these creative means, using new and unusual (okay - cool) methods. They are 'opportunity creators'.

Characteristics of Creative People Are

· Bright
· Adaptable
· High self worth/esteem
· Challenge-oriented
· Idea-oriented
· Inquisitive
· Curious

Hoping something will eventually settle into your bones. Acquiring the right kind of information takes time, but it doesn't have to cost you an arm and a leg to get it. Feel free to post your comments or offer suggestions.
