Have you been thinking of starting a business or earning additional income?
Here are 12 excellent traits of entrepreneurs by Perry Marshall, king of Adwords.
Twelve differences between those who dream and those who act:1-Wanna-be’s obsess about ideas. Entrepreneurs obsess about implementation.
2-Wanna-be’s want more web traffic. Enrepreneurs focus on sales conversion.
3-Wanna-be’s focus on positive thinking. Entrepreneurs plan for multiple
contingencies.
4-Wanna-be’s want to get on TV and get “famous.” Entrepreneurs build their
list.
5-Wanna-be’s seek a perfect plan. Entrepreneurs execute and adjust the plan
later.
6-Wanna-be’s wait for their lucky break. Entrepreneurs engineer four, five,
six plans and execute them in tandem, wagering that at least one plan will
get traction.
7-Wanna-be’s fear looking stupid in front of their friends. Entrepreneurs
willingly risk making fools of themselves, knowing that long-term success is
a good trade for short-term loss of dignity.
8-Wanna-be’s shield their precious ideas from harsh reality, postponing the
verdict of success or failure until ’someday.’ Entrepreneurs expose their
ideas to cold reality as soon as reasonably possible.
9-Wanna-be’s put off practicing basketball until they’ve got Air Jordans.
Entrepreneurs practice barefoot behind the garage.
10-Wanna-be’s believe what they’re told, believe their own assumptions.
Entrepreneurs do original research and determine what paths have been
already trod.
11-Wanna-be’s believe they can do anything. Entrepreneurs do what they’re
gifted for and delegate the rest.
12-Wanna-be’s think about the world in terms of COULD and SHOULD.
Entrepreneurs think in terms of IS and CAN BE.
So, what are you? Still obsessing over the how, or are you diving in head first?
Heck, even if you are doing it badly, you are DOING IT and are bound to stumble over sales!
