How Successful Entrepreneurs Think During Tough Times By Terry Brock – For DSound & Hive A strong argument can be made that we are going through tougher times now than ever before in our lives. I would submit that it rivals some of the most difficult times ever in history. And yet in the midst of that there are successful steps you can take to help you achieve entrepreneurial success. Yes we are going through most unusual and very difficult times right now. Sometimes it seems like we don't know what to do or where to go. The level of uncertainty for the future just exacerbates this even more. And yet successful entrepreneurs are the ones who embrace certain principles and follow certain rituals that help him to succeed no matter what happens. In spite of a Normas Lee difficult times they succeed because they know the right strategies. Here are five key principles that work in the new normal which can help you think like an entrepreneur to not only survive, but thrive: 1. Embrace life with the gusto of a determined entrepreneur. Those who succeed in business and life have a certain quality. They pursue success with enthusiasm and a willingness to pay the price to achieve it. Whether you're a solo entrepreneur or part of a much larger organization, find ways that you can make a positive difference looking for both conventional and unconventional ways to get the job done. Focus on results. 2. Don't depend on your boss, coworkers, or anyone else. Realize that ultimately your success is up to you alone. Realize successful people have had to deal with less than pleasant people often. This is the way things work on this planet! Embrace an attitude of, "If it is to be, it's up to me!" and you will be better equipped to succeed. 3. Realize the world has changed. We no longer live in a world that rewards those who stay with the same job, with the same skill-set, and with an unchanging attitude. Technology is a great leveler and empowering force. Embrace what works to develop yourself and others. Be ready to adapt and be more flexible than Gumby! 4. Develop strength within yourself. You need to be an expert in your field so others will want to be around you. Even someone who is a jerk, but has exceptional expertise, can get by. Embrace the excellence in expertise, but be a nice person, and you gain a strong competitive advantage. Regularly fill your mind with new material that is market-relevant. Keep your physical body in shape with good exercise and regular checkups with medical professionals. Make it your job to continually become the ideal person that you want to be. 5. Make it your on-going job to regularly establish, nurture, and maintain quality relationships. Relationships are what life is all about. Successful people in business know that relationships matter more than anything for successful business. Make it your job to constantly nurture those who are important in your career and your personal life. Give value first and allow others to succeed because they have been with you. Success has always gone to those who think like an entrepreneur. In a world of continual change and challenges, this is the mindset to embrace. Please share this with your community and follow.
