3 Traits Successful Startup Owners Share in Common (Make Notes)
People and success walk in circles. If you are following it then, at some point, you will start noticing that success is following you back. This fact is as clear as a child’s tear, especially in an environment where you are constantly surrounded by other entrepreneurs, their stories, habits and life hacks.Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Richard Branson, Elon Musk – all of them had different journeys to success. Some were dropped out of school, others were successful in college. Some chose to innovate while other wished to inspire. And yet, all of them, just like any other successful start-up owner, share a lot in common.Here are the top five distinct traits and habits of great entrepreneurs from a capital “E”. Embrace them and, who know, perhaps your photo will be in the next “Man of the year” Forbes cover!
Never stop learning
Knowledge surrounds us everywhere ad you should never lock yourself out of it. You can attend the upcoming “
market fit for your startup” webinar from Seductive Mobile, finish a course on Udemy or eve have a chat with your friends while discussing a new book you’ve just read.In whatever the case you will be filled with fresh, new ideas, visions of other, their concepts and beliefs. Then, after you know them all, can you choose on embracing or neglecting them. Your decisions are to be fact-based, not desire-fueled.
Be true to yourself
Did you know that every single person in the world is a superhero? We all have special powers! We are all the better at something than others. It can be anything from playing chess and to the development of a particle accelerator.You never know who’s good at what. So, as Albert Einstein once said, we should never judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree. I’ll add that we should start appreciating her ability to swim. You are the fish – focus on whatever you are best at and avoid the rest of the world, even though they may state you are doing it wrong.
Don’t re-invent the wheel
It’s 2017 out there. If something was not yet invented, the odds are it’s not even needed. Sure you can have a fantastic idea that sounds unique, but, after careful research, there’s a 99.9% chance you will find someone who’s already done it. If the time you spent learning about the concept was too long, the odds are that the idea is simply either useless or unpopular.Chanel your creativity t existing, successful things. We have cars, for example, and they can still use some upgrades, better AI, friendlier fuel, etc. There are phones, but they are still limited to screens and batteries. There are processors, but they are limited regarding productivity, size-to-overheating ratio, etc. Focus on these things as they are what matters.That’s how you stop the following success and make it follow you. As easy as that!
