4 Things that Distinguishes Successful Entrepreneurs from Unsuccessful

in #business8 years ago

A lot of people start up businesses with the desire for it to be really successful, but only a few people that are really motivated, reach the top.

So what is it that distinguishes a really successful entrepreneur from a mediocre one whose company barely breaks even, but is not really motivated to go higher? These 4 steps are essential to grasp for rookie entrepreneurs.

1. They have high energy

The first quality which unites the entrepreneurs who succeed is that they all have a very high energy level. This energy allows them to be their own motor and motivating force, which also affects others around them. Since they also provide energy to others, these are also attracted and want to be in the vicinity of the entrepreneur. The energy also means that they have a much higher level of ambition than the average entrepreneur. If you don't want to do anything, nothing will happen; if you want to do a lot, a lot will happen.

2. They have a desire to do good

Another approach common to successful entrepreneurs is that they are typically very principled with an inner desire to do good and to do the right thing. Entrepreneurs with honesty in focus do not want to fool people, but rather to create long-term win-win relationships.

3. They are enduring

Something else that also characterize the entrepreneurs that achieves the most is that they are more enduring in their business-building than others. They are prepared that it may take 25 years of one's life and a great deal of hard work and long hours to build a stable and profitable company. Their long-term perspective makes them reliable partners for customers, suppliers and employees, which is the opposite of those entrepreneurs who are only there for the "quick fix" solutions.

4. They are customer focused

Another aspect of this is that the enduring entrepreneurs are also extremely customer focused in the way they run their businesses. They focus on the customer rather than on bringing in money from venture capitalists.

In summary, we can thus see and understand that the entrepreneurs that have the greatest opportunities to build a high turnover of profitability, all have high energy and ambition, are principled, enduring and long-term as well as customer-focused.
