Do You Think Like An Entrepreneur?

August 26, 2009 by Sue Painter Leave a Comment

There have been many studies that try to answer the question “what makes an entrepreneur?”  Sometimes, a client will ask me “do you think I will be a successful entrepreneur?”  Here are some of the ways we are “different.”  Take a peek and see what you think!

  • We have a different view about risk, luck, convention, and decision-making.  We take risks quickly and easily, because we “get it” that one doesn’t move forward by always playing it safe.  We tend not to believe in luck as much as we make our luck by following up consistently.  We don’t think conventionally, we think “out of the box” and see new opportunities with those fresh eyes.  And more than anything else, we are quick decision-makers.  We realize that money likes speed and decisiveness!
  • At least one researcher finds that entrepreneurs keep themselves psychologically healthy, being willing to push against limiting beliefs.   Additionally, we pay attention to the physical and spiritual side of our lives.  (I need to remember that next time I don’t want to go swim, ha!)
  • We are the heroes of our own life.  We meet challenges and overcome fear and inability, not being afraid to use our instincts and spontaneity.
  • We are optimistic, willing to take risks, have great ideas (and usually need others to help us implement them), are willing to work long hours to achieve our goals, and are very resilient.  When things go wrong we learn from the failure and set right back with another tack.

Wow!  I like the upbeat, savvy, positive feel of all these traits.  If they describe you, you’re either already an entrepreneur or have dreams of going out on your own.
