How would it demand to be a business owner?
What does it take to be the truly visionary kind of entrepreneur who has an idea that really shifts paradigms and changes the world for the better? The answer would depend on who you ask. But here are a few things that most people will agree are fairly important ... Fearless There is always an element of risk involved when launching a new idea. Even if that idea doesn't require financial risk, yourrrre still putting yourself the line then there is still an opportunity that your idea won't sell or that it's going to be laughed from the room. You need a thick skin so you need to be able to fail. Resilient More important compared to willingness to fail even, would be the willingness to have back up again after you do. Almost every successful entrepreneur will fail multiple times before they eventually succeed but it's because they keep on trying that they eventually get their win. Once, you only need to succeed. Inventive Of course, needless to say that a businessman needs to be inventive. They must be able to come and spot opportunities up with new ideas that others miss. This is something that you is going to be born with (you aren't) in some degree, but you will discover certainly actions you can take to encourage yourself to have more creative as part of your thinking. Old Okay, you don't have to be old to be a successful trait. But I wanted to include this just to make a point-- which is that you don't need to be 'hip and young' to have a successful startup. Most successful businesses are started by people in their 40s or older. So, don't count yourself out of the race just because you're not in your twenties! Team Players Another myth could be that the entrepreneur is not a team player-- which they act solo. In reality, entrepreneurs usually surround themselves with strong teams and credit this with a few of their success. Passionate Perhaps the most important trait of all is that an entrepreneur be passionate. If you don't believe in your product or service, if you don't feel incredibly excited about it, then you won't have enough drive to see it through to completion. Moreover, you won't be able to win over other people and get them excited for it. Excitement is contagious-- so don't stick to something that you find dull or uninteresting. How Elon Musk Made People Take Him Seriously Big, world-changing ideas do not come along often. People like the status quo in fact and when you come along and try to change that, you will always meet resistance. And people-- as a whole-- are also unfortunately lacking in ambition often. If you tell someone that you're going to be a rock star or an astronaut, the most common reaction you'll get is disbelief. This is a shame though: someone has to make it after all! With all that in mind though, how can you go about convincing people to put their faith (and cash) behind your idea? If you want to do something big, how do you get others on board? The Power of Credibility When he wanted to send a man into space, this is actually the very same problem that Elon Musk faced. Musk is taken seriously by everyone now but at the time, he was completely unknown. All he knew, was that it was his mission to make space tourism a reality. And he was disenfranchised with the attempts made by NASA and others at that time. He thus came up with an idea of a prize to motivate companies into creating the technology necessary to make his vision a reality. The only problem? He didn't have the money and no one believed that he could offer it! His solution ended up being make his initial presentation alongside enthusiastic engineers and astronauts. He found people who were as excited about his idea while he was through doing this, he lent his entire concept credibility. When he appeared alongside such luminaries, people would have laughed him off the stage but not. How to Get Credibility for Your Big Idea So, the next time you have a big idea for a business, think about how you can get others to buy into it and who it would take to convince them. If it sounds stupid coming from you, then speak to someone who won't think it's stupid and who will be able to convince others. And this is actually the advantage of having a 'big idea'-- it will automatically be more exciting than a small idea and so you'll find there will be people out there who want to become ambassadors for it. You just have to find them!
