Everybody wants to be successful. When it comes to entrepreneurship everybody has a unique story to tell because everybody’s experiences are different. There is no denying the fact that entrepreneurs take the leap because they have the courage to vouch for their dreams and their fulfillment rather than going for an expected routine lifestyle. I know you have read simile generic statements on entrepreneurship before, so bear with me and read on, I promise I am coming to the point in just a few!!!
I call entrepreneurship a lifestyle because I strongly believe it is super human to work 80 to 100 hours a week while a regular employee works 40 to 45 hours. No doubt, there is much involved, you may call it crazy if you like! I find it addictive!!!
The craziest part is that every entrepreneur starts more or less in similar manner such as mumpreneurs have similar set of experiences, media oriented startup owners have similar line of stories but what sets them apart is the way they have handled their situations. You cannot deny the fact that we all bring something unique to life by following our passions and taking the leap that 90% of the population would only dream of or be intimidated with.
So when it comes to the super smart entrepreneurs there are a few common things that they do differently to be different from others, and do let me know in your comments any varied examples where what I have written here does not apply. I like to enter into interesting discussions and obviously without your input it will just be another boring run of the mill article that hardly anybody would want to read till the end…
So let’s Start!
The first thing that a super smart entrepreneur does and you haven’t done yet is, prevent panic when they hit a hard rock wall! Woah, I know you gonna scream at that! Well not everybody has the courage to keep sane when everybody else out there is watching your every move trying to understand what nuts you’re cracking to make you so super cool! Yes so keeping your cool in deep waters is a trait that comes with a lot of courage and composure and it isn’t easy! AGREE???
Then comes the handling!!! Growth, stagnancy, challenges, relationships, life goals, and yes the big fat word you all love to hear: FAILURE!! Entrepreneurship is not devoid of failure. Well entrepreneurs with some great thinking are able to handle failure differently. They do not let it get to them. They invest in self-development. They rise again and know how to shine when the time is not in their favor. A great way of investing in self-development is to hire business coach for executive coaching services. In order to find great coaches in Dubai simply go to The CoachLink and match yourself with a great coach to learn more! You will grow more! You will prosper more! You will develop more skills to serve you in future!
Thirdly, yes I will say the cliché, LAST BUT NOT THE LEAST, SUPER SMART ENTREPRENEURS read! That’s not lame! READING MAKES A BETTER MAN! Well that’s another cliché or a proverb or whatever, but it’s so absolutely TRUE. Look at it this way, you don’t need a printed book, just get your best pick online on personal development, business growth, a marketing strategy, leadership skills and read. Remember, it is what you choose to read and apply to your life and practice that will make the difference! Once you finish a few books and apply what you learn to your life and work and are smart enough to map the difference, write back to me! I am sure you will find this advice 100% useful and will BLESS ME from the deepest core of your heart!
That’s it for now! Let me know if you want to be a Super Smart Entrepreneur, we may discuss it in depth and who knows you might actually go ahead and use the tips and then come back to me with a success story to pitch to media!!!!
