Think Like An ENTREPRENEUR by JEmmy623: 12:28pm On Dec 08, 2019 |
COPIED Start Thinking Like a Business Owner Most people who enter our awesome industry have never owned a business before. They've only had a job. Now, there is nothing wrong with being an employee or having a job. But if you want to succeed in your network marketing business, you have to transition from the employee to entrepreneur mindset. Employees think of things like SECURITY, steady salary, good benefits, small raise each year, work forty hours, predictable schedule, etc. The people with jobs value these things. That's why they have a job, not a business. That's why they come into our industry and quit within one to three months because they aren't making money (or lots of money). That's why they are concerned with how much it costs to get started. That's why they ask "how much I can make in a month?" This way of thinking is the "kiss of death" when you own a business. Starting and running and growing a successful business in any industry takes a completely different mindset. I call it the entrepreneurial mindset. Entrepreneurs are not worried with how much they are making today. They don't worry about how much it costs. They do not trade time for money. They do not value security or a steady salary. Entrepreneurs are opportunists. They see an opportunity and seize it. Entrepreneurs create assets that generate an income, and have equity. Entrepreneurs take risks. Entrepreneurs turn an idea into profits! Entrepreneurs are long term thinkers. They are not scared to fail. They know they might work a couple YEARS just to make their first real money profit. To succeed in this business, or any other business, you need to learn how to think like an entrepreneur. It will take time and will not happen overnight, especially if you've had a job for many years. You can make a few thousands of naira per month in our industry with an employee mindset, but if you want to take it to the top, you must transition to an entrepreneur mindset. It won't happen overnight. It won't happen by accident either. You need a good entrepreneurial mentor. You need to study successful entrepreneurs. You need to read books about entrepreneurship. Here are a few resources and books that can help you make the shift. The E-Myth Revisited by Michael Gerber 10 Tips to Think Like an Entrepreneur I also suggest you pick up a copy of "The Cashflow Quadrant" by Robert Kiyosaki. This book helped me a lot. Remember, no one is born an employee or entrepreneur. We all become one of these things by choice. We learned how to be an employee from our parents, school and higher institutions. If you want to learn to be an entrepreneur, you must teach yourself, and learn from other entrepreneurs. Information is power!!! Have a fruitful and splendid day ahead..... P.s.= Kindly note that��� *Entrepreneurs are opportunists.* *They see an opportunity and seize it.* |
